Well Damn, I Guess I Have to Like the Oregon Ducks Quarterback Now
I think the only thing that would make you more unpopular in the Tri-Cities area than being a Washington Huskies fan is being an Oregon Ducks fan. It's kind of like the Yankees, even if they're not a direct rival of your team's, there's still a healthy hatred that is always present.
That's what the Oregon Ducks seem to be, even if it's not quite the same level as say, Alabama. People just hate them for rational and irrational reasons and I don't dare step in the way of that vitriol. All this being said, though, I will die on the "Bo Nix is a solid guy" hill. Controversial, I know but you should hear me out on this one.
Bo Nix, a transfer from Auburn, is lighting it up for the Ducks at quarterback in his senior season. But aside from that, he's turning himself into a college folk hero, not unlike Gardner Minshew did in Pullman.
