Happy Wednesday! Here is your Quack:

• The Register-Guard's Bob Clark takes a look back at the 2001 Fiesta Bowl team, and their dominating performance over the Colorado Buffaloes.
• Aaron Fentress compares Marcus Mariota with Kansas State's Collin Klein.
• Joe Lunardi's first Bracketology update of the season is out, and Oregon is a #10 seed who would take on VCU in Lunardi's bracket. This means nothing in December, but it's still nice to be in the conversation.
• The Oregon women hit the road to face Illinois today. The Ducks added a pair of walk-ons to help with numbers given the injury issues.
• Women's lacrosse has signed seven incoming players for the 2014 season.
• Finally, Governor Kitzhaber's new budget cuts all lottery money for intercollegiate sports. That's not such a big deal for Oregon and Oregon State, but is program-changing for the smaller universities in the state system.

Please accept my apologies that there will be no podcast this week. I had a migraine yesterday and was unable to record. Matt and I will be back next week.
