There isn't a ton out there today, but here's your Wednesday Morning Quack Fix:
- Despite an impressive outing, Oregon pitcher Alex Keudell was out-dueled by Oregon State's Tyler Waldron yesterday as the Beavers extended the Ducks' losing streak to nine games with a 2-0 win in Corvallis. Keudell tossed a complete game giving up only two runs on four hits, but got no help from the Oregon offense, which has managed a mere four runs in its last five games. The Ducks have now lost 16 of their last 17.
- According to The Oregonian's John Hunt, the Ducks will be ranked No. 7 in the upcoming Sporting News preseason college football poll. Additionally, Walter Thurmond III and LeGarrette Blount earned a spot on the magazine's preseason All-American team.
- ESPN.com's Ted Miller lists the Pac-10's names to remember for the 2009 season, a list of players who raised eyebrows this spring. Linebacker Eddie Pleasant is Oregon's representative.
- Around the Pac-10, Phil Steele is running through his preseason top 40, and has Oregon State at number 36 and Arizona at 40. OSU's full analysis can be read here (warning, PDF).
