Another Close Call In Heated Rivalry


Well the Ducks are now 2-0 after a nail biting 31-24 finish against the Fresno State Bulldogs. After a fumble on their first posession and an overall rocky start, the Ducks got their feet back under them and started pounding away at the Bulldogs... both on offense and defense. (I've never seen the Ducks hit quite as hard in the past... hope it continues throughout the season.) Using their spread offense (recievers spanning from sideline to sideline) and very patient running, the Ducks clung to a small lead for most of the game and only trailed once, 3-0 in the first quarter. The touchdown that won the game, and ultimately the play of the game, was a fake field goal when Brady Leaf took the snap and ran to his left, then pitched the ball back to Martinez who ran it in for the touchdown to put the Ducks up 31-24 and that's where it would stay.

In a side note head coach Mike Bellotti became the most winningest coach in Ducks history with win #92. Congratulations coach!!

Okay, okay so this is more of a right up on the game than anything but it's worth righting about... GO DUCKS!!

I wait with bated breath for your review of the Oklahoma - Oregon game. I won't say anything about the results, in case you want to be the bearer of that news.

P.S. We beat Fresno today!
