It must be nice to be sponsored by Nike.....Oh wait, we are. We have some sweet new uniforms this year too. Who sponsors csu? kotex?
If we had the 100m donation, i doubt we'd be in a rebuilding stage in the program either.
Oregon is like the TT of the Pac 10, pretty good, but can never get over the hump of mediocrity. Always ranked high it seems and then choke somewhere.
Are you serious?
Oregon is a considerably stronger program than TT you might want to go check your facts, they had one turd of a season at 5-6 but including 2001 Oregon would be third to only OU and Texas in the big-12

I think they have been beter than us until Hawkins arrived.
Does that mean you think CU was better than Oregon last year?![]()
And while we are at it lets be realistic and say the Ducks should have played Miami for the national title in 01.
From now until the time they beat us they were the better team. I'd love to hear how we were the better team in the Fiesta Bowl from someone but they'd be wrong. We lost on the field. Got torched for the most part.
Since that season the Buffs have been on a slow and long decline. Now, we are climbing again. Better coaches. Better recruiting. If played Belloti last year or the year before I don't think we'd win. Maybe next year or the year after we'd beat them. But thats a lot of maybes.
I vote that the new Oregon sporting complex recognize those who made the $100m possible: Child Labor Memorial Arena.
The Quacks are a team on the rise
Also remember the Ducks got ****ed by the BCS in 2001 too. Texas was all set to play Miami in the Rose Bowl for the BCS MNC, but Colorado proved to be the better team in the Big XII championship game. Colorado then went to the Fiesta Bowl, and the BCS picked a highly overrated fusker team to play in the Rose Bowl versus Miami when Oregon was the best team after Miami.....
