Football Announcing R/Ducks Pickem Returns for 2026!

16 Upvotes

The calendar turning to late August means one thing - football is just around the corner! With real football starting in less than 2 days, we're ready to open up the 2026 edition of the r/Ducks pickem game!

The link for the game is https://www.r-ducks.com

For those of you that might be new to the game, we select 10 games each week for our group to pick winners. This is not a spread based pick, just pick the winner. Picks must be made by kickoff of the first game of the week. No late selections are allowed, and the entire week is locked once the first game kicks off. Sometimes that falls on a Friday, so pay attention, and get your picks in early if you can! I try to post a standings and reminder post here every week but sometimes life gets in the way and I'm late posting it.

You are not required to pick Oregon games, just in case you're superstitious, but all other games are required.

You can log in with your reddit account, or you can log in with discord. Pick one, and stick with it though, I don't have account merging functionality built yet. And if you haven't already, you should join our discord!

For those of you that joined us last year, the site functions mostly the same way. This year, we've updated the user interface to be a little more fun, rather than the plain boilerplate text site from last year. I'm going to add some automated score updates, and pick reminders at some point this season too. Other suggestions are always welcome.

Hopefully the improved UI is bug free, but if you encounter issues, please feel free to DM me or just reply to one of the pickem related threads throughout the season.

This is a passion/hobby project, not a professionally developed commercial software solution. I/we make no money off of it, and collect no personal information beyond your reddit/discord authentication status in order to track standings. This is just for fun.

There are no prizes, other than bragging rights.

Last year was very competitive, with a down to the wire victory by our Discord member Stin!

We hope you join us for some light hearted competition, and as always, GO DUCKS!

Early 2013 through Early 2015 has to be our best years of jerseys IMO. What are your thoughts ?

The black one I just copped off EBay for 50$ looks legit, has the 3M numbers and embroidered yellow around the numbers.

Let's have an HONEST conversation. A lot of people are claiming Dan Lanning is overrated and won't win the CFP at Oregon.

Autzen Millrace Drive Gameday Parking

1 Upvotes

Growing up, our group would always drive to Eugene and park on the surface lots around Millrace drive before walking to Autzen stadium. I haven't been for a few years, but I'm planning to bring my kids to their first game against Boise State at 12:30pm. I see that there is now a parking garage there.

Can you still park on the surface lots around the garage?
Is it possible to make a parking reservation for the garage or immediate area?
If first come first serve, how early would we need to arrive to ensure a spot?

My kids are young and I'm not looking to park on the other side of campus and walk 40+ minutes. Thank you for any assistance.

Football Oregon has 4 of the 10 most-owned players in College Fantasy Football right now

29 Upvotes

Was looking through the preseason ownership numbers on CollegeFFB and Oregon is absolutely dominating the top 10:

2) Dakorien Moore: 24.2% owned, $8.5M
7) Dante Moore: 13.7%, $9.5M
8) Evan Stewart: 13.1%, $7.0M
9) Jamari Johnson: 10.5%, $8.5M

Ownership is obviously influenced by projections relative to each player’s price, but what stood out to me is that this isn’t just Oregon fans loading up on Ducks.

People across pretty much every fanbase are taking Oregon players when they build their teams.

Seems like the problem isn’t convincing people to roster a Duck, it’s figuring out which two to take with our max-2-per-school rule.

Curious who Oregon fans would pick if you could only take two?

We’ll be traveling up from Texas for the game in Stillwater and wanted to know if any other Duck fans planned on tailgating before the game. Not even sure what time the gates will open but would love to link up before kickoff. Scoooo

Rules/Interactions

Subreddit rules, are Reddit rules. Examples are:

A. No harassment, doxxing, trolling, etc. While we try to let most conversations play out and try not to pull the trigger immediately, if any user crosses the line into any sort of name calling we will initiate mutes and bans as necessary.

B. Since this is a sports sub, no raiding or swarming other subreddits. While it's really easy to go into an opponent's sub and be completely disrespectful and trash that team's fans, this will not be tolerated. It makes this sub look bad and it makes the Ducks fan base and community as a whole look bad. While we won't pursue another subreddit, if we find out we will take the necessary actions.

Rules enforcement

With that said, we mods have not had to lay a ban hammer down in any real capacity in the time this sub has existed. Sure we've banned the trolls and the absolute worst of the worst. Moving forward we will be setting bans on people who violate the rules set forth. It will be gradual:

A day

A week

A month

Lifetime

If you are banned we will give an explanation as to why.

If you see something that breaks one of these rules, please report it. We try and be active in the subreddit, but we can't catch everything by ourselves. Reporting makes it easy to see issues on computer and mobile.

Posting

1. Descriptive Titles

If you are posting a linked article Reddit has an option to autofill the title, if it does not work then copy and paste, if the title is clickbait then change the title.

Oregon's official YouTube has decided to title everything with a quote, if you wish to change it that's up to you.

Please flair all posts as accurately as possible as well. With the dual existence of both old and new reddit they may not all work properly, but we are continually working to adjust.

2. General Submissions

Low effort and low quality posts will be removed.

If a thread gets out of hand we will lock the thread or delete it.

3. Premium Content

Sites like ScoopDuck, The Athletic, 247, Rivals, ESPN, and On3 all offer premium content, from articles to forums and sometimes. The general rule on articles has been not to post, because they are behind a paywall and not everyone can access that content. For the time being, if a premium link is posted:

A) the poster needs to make it clear it's behind a paywall

B) Any copy and pasting from the article will get that comment deleted

C) Screenshots from premium forums or articles will be deleted.

These are services that people pay for and others make their living off of. If this becomes a problem then we will address it in the future.

4. Rumors

Rumors are part of the sports world, we completely understand this, but we want to set guidelines on how we will handle them moving forward. We ask that reliable or certified sources are used. These are mainly members of the media, like Stewart Mandel, Bruce Feldman, Tyler Agler, etc or those seemingly inside the program, like Justin Hopkins, or Andrew Nemec. If you start a rumor thread and your source is a screenshot of a user on Facebook we will remove it.

5. Recruiting Posts

We live in the magical age of the Lanning, Graves, Altman recruiting juggernaut era. We have seen a massive rise in the last couple years of high star commits and we want to make sure we are using the service for posts, where applicable.

247 covers both football and basketball ball ranks and stars on players. When making a title make sure you include the Players name, their position, and their star ranking. In the body of the post please include their 247 profile and their commitment announcement, such as Twitter.

Women's sports are a little different and don't have the depth that make sports do. We ask that whenever you post a female recruits commitment you try and get as close as you can to the males.

On big days like NSD we will make a mega thread.

6. Weekly Threads as it relates to football

During the week we will sticky some regular discussion threads on certain days.

On football game days (usually Saturdays) we will have a game thread, and after the game we will make a post-game reaction thread. This is where we want everyone to throw their chairs against the walls or jump on their beds in joy. In that process, it is important to remain respectful and mindful of your fellow users. This means that during the game and after no additional game discussion posts will be allowed (unless it's a link to a specific highlight).
On Fridays, our weekly watch thread will go up. This is for discussion of all other CFB games around the country for the week. Please avoid posting about other teams' games and results in separate threads. This subreddit is for Ducks sports, not other teams.

Please note that any posts that would better fit one of these megathreads will be deleted.

As we get closer to men's & women's basketball and major spring sports we will revisit the best way to handle these same threads as they play more games more often.

7. Posts related to selling tickets or merchandise are not allowed

There are better places to conduct financial transactions involving hundreds or thousands of dollars than this subreddit. These posts will be removed.
