I’m a Montana State grad who had Duck season tickets from 1998-2019 while living in Portland.

Looking forward for a return to Autzen. The last game I went to there was the Civil War in 2021. It will definitely be odd cheering against the Ducks, but after the game, it’s back to being a fan of both teams through their respective postseasons.

Duck fan here just checking in. Game week’s coming up and I figured I’d stop by and say hi. Not here to troll, just thought it’d be good to talk about the matchup and answer any questions you might have about the Ducks, Autzen, Eugene, or gameday experience.

If you’re making the trip or just curious about what to expect, ask away. Always good to trade some info before kickoff. Looking forward to having you guys at Autzen!
Thanks for reaching out. Welcome to Bobcat Nation! I hope you enjoy the game and interacting with our community!

Considering Oregon is breaking in at least Dante Moore at QB and possibly Austin Novosad also getting first half snaps, I took the Bobcats at -28.5 for $50 and hope the ground game can chew up some clock.

Something like a 38-14 Ducks win seems reasonable to me.

So you think the Ducks will win by more than 28.5?

I have a question about the seating. Can people bring in their cushioned seats or their own folding stadium seats?

+1 to the end of the first quarter and end of the third quarter; those are really cool Autzen traditions and absolutely worth it to see and even participate.

I'm an Oregonian by birth and grew up watching the Ducks; the Rich Brooks Rose Bowl, the pick, Masoli, Dennis Dixon, DaT, Marcus... man, great stuff. I was even there for Vernon Adams' first game, along with Prukop's.

It's going to be weird to be cheering against the Ducks, but once a Bobcat...


griz fans; keeping it classy and gracious in winning since ... well, never.

Looks like our Duck friend has gone silent. I was hoping to get some insight how long their gate lines are about 1 hour or so before the game. I certainly don't want to miss part of the game with a 30-40 minute entrance wait. At this point, my group of 8 is taking the Autzen Shuttle from the Pacific Source parking lot in Springfield. Hoping the ride is only about 20 minutes but can't find any information on timing.

As far as seats, I read their Clear Bag Policy and it is same at MSU's. Seats that are 17.5 inches or smaller are allowed. Just like at Bobcat Stadium
