History of the Oregon Ducks Football - YouTube
The Oregon Ducks football program boasts a rich history dating back to 1894. Initially known as the "Webfoots," the team has evolved into a national powerhouse
synonymous with innovation and high-flying offense.
Above is an excellent video on the football program at Oregon.
The program's early years were marked by inconsistency, but the arrival of legendary coach Hugo Bezdek in 1913 signaled a turning point. Under his guidance, Oregon claimed its first Rose Bowl victory in 1917. However, sustained success remained elusive for much of the 20th century.
A resurgence began in the early 2000s under coach Mike Bellotti. Oregon's offensive prowess became a hallmark, culminating in a BCS National Championship appearance in 2011. The subsequent era under Chip Kelly further solidified the Ducks as a national force, characterized by fast-paced, high-scoring football.
In recent years, Oregon has maintained its status as a Pac-12 contender while experiencing some fluctuations in success. Despite these challenges, the program's history and tradition continue to inspire a passionate fanbase and drive the team towards future triumphs.
