Boise State came to town and the Ducks were really hoping for a better game than week 1, but at least it was better than their three previous losing games vs. the Broncos! They wore the same helmet (but with green facemask instead of yellow) and jersey from week 1 and added their new white pants.
This exact combo was last worn in the 2023 Civil War victory, but that was its first appearance.
But white-green-white combos have been seen in 2022, 2021, the "Duck Mascot" inspired loss in 2016, a 2015 win, the 2014 Pac-12 Championship and the 2010 Rose Bowl loss.
IMHO I'm not fan of white pants with all green top. I can imagine they might be saving yellow for week 3 Civil War?
Hi Dennis. I don't watch Oregon much, but the game against Boise State drew my attention. I am curious about a yellow sticker on the back of the Ducks' green helmets. It looked like an out-of-proportioned asterisk, but I couldn't get a clear view of it. Do you know what is and reps? Thanks for your attention.
ReplyDeleteTerry. If it is this season then you might be seeing the double memorial sticker that is two yellow ducks flying together. It is a memorial to Khyree Jackson and Spencer Webb, both ducks who have died recently. Good explainer her: https://uni-watch.com/2024/07/30/oregon-ducks-to-honor-webb-and-jackson-with-helmet-memorial-decal/
