Oregon Football Titles

This is the ultimate resource guide for true fans of the Oregon Ducks football team. Most supporters have taken in a game or two at the Autzen Stadium, have seen highlights of a young Joey Harrington, and vividly recall the Ducks’ trip to the 2011 BCS National Championship Game. But only real fans can name the Oregon alumnus responsible for the team’s unique Nike uniforms, can name the All-American running back from the 1970s who became a well-known sportscaster, or know all the lyrics to “Mighty Oregon.” Every essential piece of Duck knowledge and trivia, profiles of memorable Ducks figures, as well as must-do activities, is ranked from 1 to 100, providing an entertaining and easy-to-follow checklist for those on their way to Oregon fan superstardom.

Taking a decade-by-decade approach to the University of Oregon football tradition, this collection brings together over 40 stories from the most outstanding voices of the program. The spirit of Ducks football is not captured by just one phrase, one season, or one particular game; instead, the student-athletes and coaches who made the magic happen over the decades blend their experiences to capture the true essence of their beloved school. Oregon fans will relish the intimate stories told by the figures they have come to cherish.

Whether rediscovering the best team moments, or initiating into the histories and traditions of Ducks fandom, this book about the University of Oregon football team is both a useful resource and cherishable memorabilia. Packed with anecdotes of the players, explanations about the beginnings of rivalries and traditions, detailed histories about the greatest players and moments in the school’s history, lists of the most successful seasons, recaps of the most exciting games ever played, and year-by-year statistics, this collectible book is the primary source for anyone eager to be an expert regarding anything about the Ducks. The book captures the essence of what it means to be a true Oregon fan: Autzen Stadium, the swoosh, crossing the Willamette River via the Autzen Footbridge, All-Americans, the uniforms, and the one and only Donald Duck.
