Oregon Gameday Live Stream vs Oregon State
Last season was one to forget for the Oregon Ducks. A 4-8 season ended with a loss in Corvallis in the Civil War with Oregon State winning the battle. Flash forward a year and Willie Taggart has Oregon on the verge of a bowl game and a chance to double their wins from last season. For Oregon State, it is the opposite. It is a season to be forgotten. Head Coach Gary Anderson left before the season was ended and the Beavers have yet to win a Pac-12 Conference game this season.
Oregon Football will say goodbye on Saturday to Seniors that were key players in the turnaround this season led by Senior Running Back Royce Freeman. Freeman is one of the only Oregon Players to have seen three different coaching staffs. He has also seen plenty of ups and downs in his career and will look to have a big day on the field against Oregon State.
Charles Nelson is another Senior playing in his final game on Saturday. Nelson spent part of the season injured, but came back strong. Both Freeman and Nelson have been Offensive Leaders for Oregon Football over the last few seasons and their contributions this season have been key to starting to turn things around under Head Coach Willie Taggart.
Another big key for Oregon is their Defense. Jim Leavitt entered the picture at the perfect time and the start of getting back to fundamentals started immediately. It has taken some time, but there are improvements compared to last season, including a Defensive Unit ranked in the Top 50 in the Nation.
