On the second day of September, Duck football will return to action under a new regime. Head coach Willie Taggart will lead a new era of excellence.

Recently, Athlon Sports ranked Oregon No. 21 in their preseason poll. Only time and play on the field will tell the true story.

We are 100 days from witnessing Royce Freeman rumble through a hole and over an opposing defender before galloping to the house for a touchdown. Royce Watch will follow every moment of his senior season.
