Should be wet. This might be the wettest season I've ever seen for the Ducks.

I know fans traveling to Eugene Friday night may not care for a Friday night game. For me sitting in a recliner dinking store bought beer on a Friday night, I love it. Another great season under Lanning.

Kind of interesting that last season it felt like weather was shockingly clear and good, then this year we keep having wet and cold games.

Can't remember the last time Oregon played in three consecutive rainy games in one season. At least with the forecast on Friday, it doesn't appear there'll be much wind (gusts only getting to 12-15 MPH and sustained at 6 MPH) like there was for Wisconsin and Iowa.

Guessing third consecutive game that the Ducks don't "cover" (currently favored by about 24).

I'm hoping these rainy games will prepare the Ducks in the event they have to play a playoff game in these conditions. That could be an advantage over many teams.

I hope the Ducks stay focused this week after their emotional win over I.O.W.A. (Idiots Out Wandering Aimlessly). Their cheerleaders don't cheer, they graze.

Anyhow, I know the Gophers got blown out by Iowa, but they're still 6-3 overall and have a quality win over Nebraska.

Go Ducks!!!

Koi Perich would be a great transfer portal target as he'll be a fun one to watch for the Gophers.

Nice to see the weather forecasts backing away from (at least significant) rain for Friday evening. Maybe it won't be too bad after all.

Ya, look like it'll be dry the whole game. And not even tool cold for a night November game in Eugene.

At least the weather forecast for the game has improved from showers to just mostly cloudy.

Oregon going white/green/white with stripes and Os on the helmets. Not a fan of these.

Line is up to 25.5. Guessing with the predicted weather, we won't cover that. Probably large doses of the running game in the first and second quarter, with play action to follow once their safties start cheating up.
