After looking at the serious side of college football on Tuesday morning with John Walters of The Daily, today it’s time to get back on the field and discuss one of the best, yet least talked about teams in the sport, the Oregon Ducks. The Ducks are riding high after a dominating win over Stanford, and could continue to make their case for a back-door shot at a BCS Championship game appearance if they win this Saturday against USC.

One prominent Oregon fan was in Palo Alto last week and will be in Eugene this weekend to take in the sights and sounds, and he stopped by the podcast on Wednesday to discuss it all. That fan? Dan Rubenstein, the co-host of “The Solid Verbal,” podcast and college football columnist at Bleacher Report. Nobody knows the Ducks program quite like Dan does, and on Tuesday he stopped by the podcast to discuss the following:
- Was he surprised by the ease with which Oregon beat Stanford? Also, what do the results of Saturday’s games say about both the Ducks and Cardinal at this point in the season.
- Is it fair to say Andrew Luck had a “bad” game Saturday night? How much was influenced by players missed to injury, and just overall poor play from the guys on the field?
- Heading into this weekend, what should Oregon fans expect from USC? Do the Trojans actually pose a tougher matchup for the Ducks than Stanford did?
- And finally if they win out and if Oklahoma State were to lose, do the Ducks deserve a shot at the BCS title? What are Dan’s arguments for and against Oregon in this scenario?
For anyone who is a regular listener to “The Solid Verbal,” you know how knowledgeable and fun Dan is to listen to whenever discussing the Ducks, and I was happy to have on the podcast for the first time.
