Oregon duck football spring game

Flowe brought the energy and ended the day with five tackles, 1 sack, 1. This unit is young, and it plays with a lot of energy. That showed on Saturday. Going into the Spring Game, we knew where a bulk of the targets were going to go in the No. Behind those four, however, questions about depth and potential production arose. Check out this list of stats from the game:. We may not exactly know which players will step up when the time comes this fall, but we can at least feel confident that Mario Cristobal has a litany of guys that he can call on to make a play, and feel comfortable that they will deliver.

Luckily, it seems that there now is one, and his name is Henry Kattleman. Though he is pitted in a competition with Camden Lewis for the starting job, Kattleman seemingly kicked his competition to the curb when his field goal attempt from yards went through the uprights on Saturday afternoon.

After the scrimmage, Cristobal mentioned that there is still a competition at the position, but the writing seems to be on the wall. His major value is rushing the quarterback and putting some fear in those tackles in this league. Oregon has the pieces in place for the latter and begins a competition to identify the former Thursday.

Mario Cristobal was true to his word. Anthony Brown did receive the "bulk" of the reps on Saturday. He attempted three times as many passes as any of the freshmen quarterbacks. While he was far from perfect, he was also the most reliable over the scrimmage's entirety. He led two scoring drives in the first half, including a touchdown drive to open the game, in which he found Travis Dye for a yard touchdown. It's hard to draw too much from Saturday's scrimmage.

With so many pieces of Oregon's secondary missing, Jay Butterfield faced walk-on corners on the outside. Even facing weaker competition, the second-year freshman was impressive. He hit short, intermediate and deep throws and completed his first four attempts.

His firs pass found Dont'e Thronton's hands down field and helped set up a scoring drive capped by a touchdown pass to Kris Hutson. I predicted earlier this week that walk-on Cross Patton would lead the team in rushing attempts. While I stand by the logic of the prediction, but Patton did not play. In his place stepped another walk-on running back, as first-year freshman Aaron Smith took control.

Thick and well-built, Smith ran with impressive power and vision during the scrimmage. He carried the ball 15 times for 56 yards and scored the offense's final touchdown of the first half from four yards out. Kris Hutson was a hot button topic during last fall camp.
