Oregon Women’s Basketball 2026-27 Preview

Oregon women’s basketball, now in the Pac-12, returns four starters—Katie Fiso, Ehis Etute, Ari Long and senior forward Filippa Tillander—after a 24‑25 season that saw the program push several fringe players into the transfer portal. A tragic knee injury to Sofia Bell opens a spot for Avary Cain early in the year. The Ducks add experienced transfers Mallory Heyer (5‑year forward from Minnesota, 8.6 PPG, 8.0 RPG) and Belmont’s 6‑2 forward Hilary Fuller, who hit 4‑5 in an exhibition. Freshman guard Brooklynn Haywood (#2 WA prospect, 8‑10 shooting in exhibition) and 6‑4 center Emilia Krstevski round out a recruiting class ranked #14 by ESPN. The preview outlines roster changes and expectations for the 2026‑27 campaign.

Oregon Football Falls Flat Against Illinois, Loses 21-10

Oregon's football season hits a low point as the Ducks fall 21-10 to Illinois at Memorial Stadium on Oct. 24, 2026. After an early 7‑0 lead sparked by Jordon Davison’s 2‑yard rush, the Ducks are shut out in the second half while Illinois controls the clock with ball‑control drives. Key moments include a fumble by Dylan Raiola, multiple sacks by Teitum Tuioti, and a 75‑yard touchdown run by Illinois’ Laughery. The loss marks Oregon’s worst defeat under Dan Lanning and drops the Ducks to a 0‑2 record in games they were favored to win.

Oregon @ Illinois Football Game Thread

The Oregon Ducks return to Champaign for the first time since 1993, facing Illinois at Memorial Stadium at 12:00 pm PT on Saturday. After a dominant 38‑9 win over Nebraska, the Ducks enter as favorites but must overcome two weeks of sluggish offense and a long injury list. A reminder of the 1993 Illini upset adds extra spice. Later that day, Oregon’s volleyball team seeks to bounce back from a 1‑3 loss to #16 Penn State with a match against unranked Ohio State at 4:00 pm PT. Both games air on the Big Ten Network and B1G+.

Reacts: Oregon QB Survey results

A recent SBNation fan poll shows Oregon Ducks supporters shifting their preference back to quarterback Dylan Raiola, with 25% favoring the backup Brock Thomas and a quarter still rooting for Akili Smith Jr. The upcoming Saturday matchup sees Oregon facing Nebraska without a clear starter, while Illinois also loses QB Katin Houser. Bookmakers have trimmed the projected combined score to under 50 points, and FanDuel’s odds now list Oregon as a slight 30‑20 favorite.

Oregon Ducks Football: Duck Tape Film Analysis of Illinois Football 2026

The Ducks’ podcast dissects Illinois’ injury‑riddled 2026 offense after a 31‑30 OT win over Michigan State on Oct. 10. Starting QB #4 Houser, a veteran transfer, exits with a hand injury after his second interception, prompting true freshman #7 Clayton to finish the game and spark a one‑point overtime victory. The hosts note Clayton’s eight passes mirrored Houser’s season‑long patterns—stellar to the top two receivers, weak to other targets—highlighting the Illini’s reliance on a short‑passing, catch‑and‑run scheme under OC Lunney amid an underdeveloped line and plagued tight ends. They debate whether sophomore QB Boyd will replace Houser or if Clayton will keep the reins for Saturday’s matchup.

MBB: Altman Appreciation

The post celebrates Dana Altman's impact on Oregon men’s basketball, tracing his rise from a shaky start in 2011 to a legacy of consistency and postseason success. Under Altman, the Ducks posted fifteen straight 20‑win seasons, captured multiple Pac‑12 titles, reached the Elite Eight twice (including a historic 2017 upset of Kansas) and made five consecutive NCAA appearances. Even after setbacks in 2022‑23 and a conference move to the Big Ten, Altman engineered another March surge, earning an NCAA berth and securing the most March wins of any program in the past 15 years. The article argues his legacy outweighs his final‑season struggles.
