Quack Fix: Flashy Uniforms, First Aid Service Team, Nike-made Bats, and All Rocks Go To Heaven
I like to move it move it.
- Missouri State is coming to Autzen Stadium on Saturday and I haven't seen this much confidence about a game's outcome since the Oregon State / Sacramento State matchup. Rob Parness offers a preview. Terrell Turner is talking about how Chip is getting the team ready to play and it should come as no surprise that he's treating it just like any other game. Speaking of Terrell, he took a quiz Missouri State. Ted Miller offers up some Pac-12 predictions for this weekend.
- Apparently there is this new trend going around with the hipsters that says flashy uniforms bring in recruits! On a serious not, the article does have some interesting notes about Oregon recruits and players as well as a discussion of the Maryland "flag" uniforms.
- There is a group of people at every Oregon Ducks home game that go mostly unnoticed but play a vital role in ensuring the success of the event, win or lose. That group is called the First Aid Service Team (FAST) and with the heat last weekend, they were a busy bunch. Here's a profile of the group.
- All kinds of baseball news today. 13 freshman appear on the diamond for the Ducks to start the year after several losses from last. Only 9 out of 38 players have experience in an Oregon uniform. Oregon may be referred to as "Nike U" but that doesn't mean we will be using Nike-produced bats.
- In volleyball news, we have a preview for the upcoming Pac-12 season and boy does the conference look stacked again this year. We also have an Arizona Wildcats oriented preview for tomorrows matchup.
- Nothing like some friendly wagers between some NFL players. Colin Kaepernick got to wear a Duck polo shirt after losing his bet with OL Adam Synder of the 49ers.
In lighter news, I thought this series of images (although surely fake) would brighten someone's day. Have a good Thursday and Go Ducks!

This is interesting.
I’m looking at the BlogPoll results…
And AtQ somehow got both Mr. Numb Existence AND the CK Curse Award.
I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a ballot that had the least standard deviation also got the most “Bias”, while still dropping voter’s team a single spot .
It's spelled "S-H-U-F-E-L-T-I-M-P-A-T-I-E-N-T".

Not to mention that while all the things you mentioned are happening,
the Ducks actually climbed up one spot on the overall ballot.

"YOU ARE THE KING OF THE AWESOME GUYS, JSHUFELT!!!" - daisyduck
So, unless I'm missing something, we should have run away with the CK award last week too, but it was missed.
In week 2, AtQ had the Ducks at 8 (i.e. 18 points) while the overall ballot had scored them at 12.26. This would give us a bias of 5.74, yet the C/K award went to an Arkansas blog for having a bias of 4.73.
So I think it’s not as interesting as they thought; relative to the ballots at large, we’ve just been overrated the Ducks the whole time.

Bias rating is calculated by subtracting the blogger’s vote for his own team from the poll-wide average
That would make the poll-wide average “points” 46.08, if you remove the AtQ vote from the poll-wide average, it would have only made a difference of .72.
Last week – in the upper Oregon voting, there was a 3rd place vote, a 6th place vote, six 7th place vote, and eleven 8th place vote.
This week – in the upper Oregon voting, there are three 6th place votes, five, 7th & 8th place votes, and seven 9th place votes.
The top end went more to the middle, the bottom end went more to the middle, Jared stayed pretty close to where he was. Since the top end votes are moved, AtQ’s ballot is closer to the top now, so it has more “weight” in the average.

46.08?
Hmmm — I thought that points were assigned in the typical way: 25 points for a 1st place vote, 24 for a 2nd, etc. If so, the average could never exceed 25. Am I missing something here?

Here's what I have.
Week 2: 83 voters, 1152 total points (That’s an average of 13.88)
Week 3: 72 voters, 995 total points (That’s an average of 13.81)
It's spelled "S-H-U-F-E-L-T-I-M-P-A-T-I-E-N-T".
"YOU ARE THE KING OF THE AWESOME GUYS, JSHUFELT!!!" - daisyduck
Week 2: I agree with your total points, but they said there were 94 ballots in week 2. (Some of them, particularly the resumé voters, didn’t have us ranked that week.) If there were 94 ballots, then I agree with their week 2 average of 12.26.
Week 3: I only counted 968 total points for us here. They claim there were 73 voters, so I again agree with their average of 13.26.
I counted up the points myself, but I’m taking their word for it on the number of voters, since I can’t figure out an easy way to see who has submitted a ballot but left us off it.

Not sure about the 80 pts or over 60 pt margin of victory
that requires some serious piling on in the 4th Q. For LMJ over 200, he certainly could go for 300 if we let him run 30 times, but I’m guessing he is the first starter pulled and is gone by halfway through the 2nd Q.
Everyone seems to think DAT is over his fumble issues, but he has had 3 in 2 games so we’ll see
We will have 50+ on the first half.

At what point do you take out DT when we get ahead? If we’re up 21-0 in the 1Q? At halftime, regardless of score?
If I’m the coach, I treat it like a pre-season NFL game. Get DT a few series’ of downs and then get him out and let BB get some more game experience.

Speaking of new unis
What’s up with asu jackin our matt black helmet look?? I personally liked their look last week but I like being the only one rockin them as well. Also did anyone see Michigan State new combat gear? I dunno bout those. Still cool though. When it comes to the combat gear I’ve seen so far though I have to go Oregon, ASU,MSU,Boise.

The even used our logo on their playcalling cards that they stole from us.

They used our mascot. I’m not sure about our logo though.
It's spelled "S-H-U-F-E-L-T-I-M-P-A-T-I-E-N-T".

ATQ Football Roster is incorrect
I was looking at the roster on here earlier, and Seastrunk is still listed. I’m not sure if there are any other errors, but thought I’d point that out so someone can fix it if it’s not already on someone’s radar.

Speaking of rosters
I’ll be updating my NCAA 12 roster file tonight (tweaking some of the player stats, especially for the freshmen), and advancing the ATQ dynasty ahead a week. The Dyansty will be moved ahead every 10 days, and it is the responsibility of the player to finish his week ahead of time, and to set up and play any games against a human opponent. The next advancement of the ATQ dynasty will be Sunday, September 25.

Aren't there other, less important things you could ration?

Garbage?
Rent?
Insurance?
Student Loans?

Texas is awesome!
Why Texas is doing the rest of the NCAA a favor with the Longhorn Network
For some reason Texas fans keep on equating the LHN to conference networks, which makes no sense from a demand standpoint.
