Stadium:
Autzen Stadium
Oregon's Autzen Stadium, consistently ranked among the nation's top 10 venues to watch a college football game, only got better in 2002. Beginning its 37th season, the facility which originally was completed for a remarkable bargain of approximately $2.5 million in 1967, underwent a $90 million facelift that not only added 12,000 seats and 32 luxury boxes to the stadium's south-side skyline, it improved the amenities that allows spectators to enjoy a better game-day experience in one of the loudest collegiate stadiums in the country. The renovation encompassed much-needed restroom and concession facilities, a 10,000-square foot entertainment center (Club at Autzen), widened walkway and concourse areas to better accommodate the increased capacity from 41,698 to 54,000 fans, as well as new ticket distribution centers and guest services windows to cater to the needs of its patrons.

Season Preview:
Oregon enters the season with a chip on its shoulder and something to prove after losing its last four games, including an embarrassing defeat to BYU in the Las Vegas Bowl. The Ducks believe they had a cleansing of sorts with the first known "clear-the-air" meeting in coach Mike Bellotti's 12-year tenure. Complaints from players about other players, coaches, and vice versa were heard. If the Ducks can get over these mental hurdles, physically they are capable of finishing among the top four teams in the Pac-10 with the talent they have returning. The Ducks are going to experiment with more two-back offensive sets and no-huddle offense to expand the system and make it more unpredictable. Oregon needs change after turning the ball over 17 times in its last four games. Starting QB Dennis Dixon returns after throwing 12 interceptions and six touchdowns in the final nine games of 2006. The no-huddle offense is geared to keep Dixon in a throwing groove while keeping defenses on their heels and unable to substitute freely. Defense definitely ruled spring drills, a good sign for Oregon after giving up 140 points in its last four games. Oregon returns only five starters, and will need rover Patrick Chung and CB Jairus Byrd to hold the secondary together, but playmakers up front are desperately needed. Ever since Oregon went to its spread offense, the Ducks have been described as anything but physical at the point of attack, as their 78th-ranked rushing defense would attest. More physical play is needed, or it won't matter how many points the Ducks can score. Jonathan Stewart is back after leading the Pac-10 with a 28.1-yard kickoff-return average. Punting was a nightmare, but Josh Syria brings hope in the form of his powerful leg. The Ducks finished with just a 32-yard net clip a year ago. Oregon is likely to lean heavily on just Matt Evensen after having shared the duties in the past.
