Oregon-USC Live Blog: How Can You Tell If the Ducks Are in Costume?

EUGENE, Ore. -- Greetings from Autzen Stadium, where just moments ago I was "looking live at Brent Musberger" as we rode up the elevator together. Brent is 70 years young and he hasn't lost an ounce of energy. It's funny. Earlier today ESPN Classic aired a replay of the 1983 NCAA basketball final (Houston-N.C. State), for which Musberger did the play-by-play (on CBS).

That was 26 years ago. And Brent is still getting the primetime gigs. I am an unabashed, unapologetic Musberger fan.

The weather in Eugene? Cloudy but comfortable. Autzen's press box provides one of the country's prettier views, especially with the backdrop of the fall colors. Notice, by the way, that USC's and Oregon's colors all are in sync with the various hues of leaves this time of year. That is, unless the Ducks wear black this evening.

Hope you have time to follow the Twick-or-Tweets tonight. Happy Halloween!

I can't believe that USC is ranked in the top 5. They are just not that good of a football team. They will lose to Oregon.

Those SEC teams are in the top-10 on reputation alone. How many impressive wins do the three of them have, combined? Barely ONE (Alabama over V-tech).
