Poll: What Is The Best Home Game On Oregon's 2013 Football Schedule?

August is rapidly approaching, which means all things football are almost here. On the 31st, you will be sitting in a bar, or your living room or den, or, if you're really lucky, Autzen Stadium, watching the Ducks take the field.

Autzen is the best stadium in the Pac-12, but the relatively small capacity and expense of attending a game there mean that heading to an Oregon home game is only an occasional happening for many fans. So today's poll question is this: if you could attend only one game at Autzen this season, which would it be?

Here are the candidates:

August 31 -- Nicholls State

Okay, so this isn't much of a game, but you do have a chance to see if the Autzen jumbotron really has a third digit. It is the opener, and tickets should be relatively inexpensive.

September 14 -- Tennessee

The SEC rolls into Autzen! Okay, so we're not talking about a great SEC team here, but still.

September 28 -- California

The Pac-12 opener gives you a chance to see Sonny Dykes' "Bear Raid" in person.

October 17 -- Washington State

Mike Leach's offense has to be better than last year's version, right?

October 26 -- UCLA

The Pac-12 South favorites with Brett Hundley behind center? An intriguing choice, indeed.

November 16 -- Utah

This is Utah's first game against Oregon as a member of the Pac-12.

November 29 -- Oregon State

My choice with no Stanford, USC, or Washington on the schedule. OSU should be pretty good this season, and this game has a chance to be the lead-in to something special.
