Book Description

Game Day August 1, 2007
The names are oh-so-familiar to fans of college football. Norm Van Brocklin. Mel Renfro. Dan Fouts. Bill Musgrave. Joey Harrington. Haloti Ngata. Those names and countless others have given Oregon football a genuine tradition of greatness.

In this book, we've attempted to distill that tradition into words and pictures. It's a daunting task. Few programs inspire the loyalty and passion that Oregon football exacts from its fans, and with good reason.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

"To have Game Day Oregon Football on my bookshelf affords me the chance to remember the glory days of Van Brocklin, Renfro, Berry, Wilcox, Harrington, Brooks, Bellotti, and so many others. But most importantly, it reminds me of how thankful I am for having been given the shot at playing football for the place that always feels like home to me--the University of Oregon. GO DUCKS!" --Oregon legend and NFL Hall of Famer Dan Fouts, from the foreword

From the Inside Flap

The numbers are impressive: 20 bowl game appearances. Dozens of All-Americans. Five members of the College Football Hall of Fame. Countless statistical milestones.

But the numbers alone don't do justice to the impact that Oregon football has had, and continues to have, on its legion of fans. What takes place within the storied confines of Autzen Stadium is more than simply a game--it's a way of life.

Oregon has become synonymous with college football excellence--and that excellence shows no signs of diminishing. From the fabled exploits of the Flying Dutchman, Norm Van Brocklin, to the quarterback legacy re-established by Chris Miller and Bill Musgrave and sustained by Joey Harrington, to the ferocious play of defenders like Haloti Ngata and Peter Sirmon, the Ducks have given their fans countless cherished memories. Today's great players continue to be attracted to Eugene by the unique image that Oregon football projects, ensuring that the tradition established by the Duck legends of yesterday will live on.

Coach Mike Bellotti described the Oregon football tradition this way after the Ducks' 35-30 win over Texas in the 2000 Holiday Bowl: "These kids, I don't know how many times I can say it, but the whole really is greater than the sum of the parts. That right there, that's what Oregon football is all about."

Game Day Oregon Football is a celebration of the pride that all Duck players and fans share, and of the decades of gridiron excellence that have inspired it.
