Technically, he is right. I think the Ducks home record over the last decade is just outside the top 10, though.

To be fair, after their early successes in the earlier parts of the decade, the Ducks weren't really "good" again until the latter parts of the decade.

how's that being fair. Alabama had Shula, UT had Fulmer...

Well the guy was right about Oregon over the last "Decade". Usually a decade is 10 years. Occasionally, someone from Cal may think it's only 8 years but that's just Calie.

Also, even using Calie's "Cherry Picked" 8 year numbers you got it wrong. True USC (48-4) and Cal (40-11) are better than Oregon's (40-12). But OSU is 37-13 over that period.

By the way Cal is 42-20 over the last "Decade" to Oregon's 51-13. It seems obvious why you needed to look at an 8 year period.

NOTE: Ducks and Bears don't play well together.

I googled it and used the past "decade" not the past 8 years. The whole point is, it's not cool to judge a program based on their stadium size. Google toughest/loudest places to play in college football and Oregon always comes up. I don't care if they have 50 people in there, it's supposed to be loud as crap.

you mean maybe we shouldn't look at the past 10 years because the primary reason your team had that great home record in 2000 and 2001 is now the head coach at cal? yeah that does make sense. i'd argue it's cherry picking to start counting during your best 2 seasons in school history.

home stadium silliness is overplayed. It's harder to play on the road in almost any stadium, but it's normally about the quality of the teams on the field and the upperclass leadership for the road teams.

How'd you find our home field advantage to be last year, fleabag?

Face it, when your most famous football fan at the moment is fat, aging, white, dreadlocked, emo rocker, the football gods have been saying "F__k You With a Stick!" to all of your forlorn prayers.

bingo. playing at home is an advantage everywhere. the facts don't agree that autzen is any better than anywhere else.

agreed. Can you take your Oregon idiots back home and get these threads littered with dumb out of here. It would help get back to some level of sensibility around here. Actually lowering the average IQ appreciably was thought to be impossible, but you guys pulled it off. Help us out and let us get it back to only a single order of magnitude south of the national average.

If the goal is to measure the advantage of playing at home, more data would be stronger evidence than less. So, it would not be cherry-picking to give more weight to a larger body of evidence.

The 2000-2001 seasons are arguably when the Autzen crowd factor came together.

Are players and coaches statements not facts?

Nobody has claimed that the crowd at Autzen makes the Ducks invulnerable to losing. Cal winning that game doesn't mean that the crowd wasn't a factor.

What does it hold,over 50,000.That is as small as the SEC's smallest Stadium,Vandy!!LOL at Oregon,they sure are not into college football and very few fans!!

Geezus. This is getting ridiculous. Go back to the original post. The guy is making fun of Oregon just because their stadium is "small". He also states that they are not into football and have no fans. The whole point of which is sheer stupidity.

oregon drew 15k a game before the 90s. and they still don't travel very well. i very much doubt they would regurally sell out a much larger stadium. they do have some very passionate fans, but let's not argue there are a lot of them (at least not by sec standards).

Talk to a USC fan, or better yet, just travel to Wearesc for a day. They very well may be the most arrogant, pompous, disrespectful, fan base in all the country.

Ask em what they think about SEC and the south in general, most of em would turn their noses up to even traveling to the south.

Though on second thought, I do very much agree that Oregon fans will interact well with UT fans.

Oregon's a great place with great people. I have a niece I visit that lives across the river in Vancouver. Nice and cool there, a genuine relief from the Georgia heat.

i wish Neyland held only 65,000 and that fans stopped going to games when they stop being willing to stand the whole time if necessary

as it is, we have 65,000 screaming fans whose voices aren't as loud on the field as they would be in Autzen because the sound has to dampen through 35,000 heads of blue hair

What in the world does the size of a stadium have to do with any thing?

Any one ever heard of the U?
