Purdue Fan Speaks too Soon

Poll: Most Disappointing Moment of the Last Three Seasons

What do you think? MY pick would have to be the Cal game last year. It was just all so perfect. I camped outside the south gate with a friend and we got on CGD. All hell was about to break lose if we scored on that last drive....then Autzen went silent....one of the most sad things you will ever not hear....

The Arizona game was almost as equally gut-renching but nothing can ever come close to the pain I felt after seeing the ball roll out the back of the endzone.....

Poll

It's Crazy Jersey Time!

It's almost time.....kickoff to the 2008 Duck Football season is mere hours away. With a new season comes new problems and challenges for the team. Who will be the starting QB? How can we possibly replace Dixon and Stewart? Can we stand up to the onslaught of the toughest conference opponents on their turf? However, none of these questions even come close to the biggest riddle of all......"So what are we going to wear this game?"

Yes.....the Ducks are one of only the handfull of teams that will ask themselves this question. Any other school would just answer, "We're gonna wear our jerseys....what else would we wear?"HAH! Well, most likely, they don't have an EXCLUSIVE patnership with a sports apparel giant with a base in their back yard. *This is about the point where the Beavs out there start to envy us even know they don't want to admit it*. In recent years, the Ducks have shocked the world of college football with their outlandish uniforms.

So then, what fashion could the Ducks possibly display in their season debut this saturday against the dreaded Fuskies. Will it be the inclusion of yellow helmet? Maybe completely diamond-plated tops? Anything's possible with this crew. Now it's time for you to make your prediction. What ARE they going to be wearing?

My personal prediction is Yellow helmet with greeen O, Black top with yellow lettering silver pinstriping, green sleeves, and black pants.

So the Secondary wants a nickname?

A while back on "Duck Feed," the goducks.com blog, Andy McNamara reported that Patrick Chung wanted a nickname the Ducks' secondary. He proceeded to request fan suggestions. Today, Chung, Byrd, and Thurmond narrowed the names down to four. The Flock, Autzen Air Patrol, The D-Boyz, and The Fog. Autzen Air Patrol is out in front with about 44% of the online vote of the four names.

I suggested the name "The PICK Crew." Any more good ideas from the people of ATQ?
