Tough Games

The University of Oregon has a long-standing curse on its athletic programs, despite the big Nike money that is its lifeboat.

Two NC games in football in the past eight years, both losses.

A Final Four and a sublime nose dive, in 2017.

A flame out in the Men's College World Series, Oregon's lone appearance since restarting baseball ten years ago. (What year: does it even matter?) What a slow road.

Golf?  Great individual play on occasion, but the team hasn't flourished.

T&F?  The women win trophies, the men are hurting lately, wherein a legacy thrower goes to Texas and wins Olympic Gold in Rio.  Oregon won the title in '15 and '16.  Can the team get back on track--so to speak--this year?

Now softball.  Oregon's women went into Okie City with the 1st seed overall, favored like Catherine the Great, and proceeded to get hammered and sent home crying. (There's crying in softball.)

O Woe!
