Duck Stuff: Morning Mud

Morning Mud

• Rob Moseley provides the numbers to every early preseason poll he could find and the Ducks rank from 2nd to 7th.

• Ted Miller has posted his All Pac-10 Bowl team which includes Jeff Maehl, Casey Matthews, Kenny Rowe, Rob Beard and Cliff Harris.

• Rachel Bachman follows up on the news that Duck football tickets will cost more this year along with increases in the required donation levels for premium seats.

• OregonGridiron released their motivational video for the BCS title game. As usual, it is very well done.

• Adam Jude has learned (from a source) that LMJ has reaffirmed his decision to return for his junior year. Today is the deadline to declare for the NFL draft which is held in April.

• Even The LA Times recognizes that the balance of power in the Pac-10 has shifted to the Northwest, specifically, Eugene.

USC and UCLA are scrambling just to keep up with the big boys in Eugene. We are Los Angeles. For us, being king of the hill, top of the heap, has always been more than song lyrics. We have treated it like our birthright.

GO DUCKS!
