The past couple of days have been incredibly entertaining in Oregon Duck Twitter circles.
When we set out earlier this week to crown the Greatest Duck of All Time, we didn’t quite expect that it would catch on so much among the fan base. It’s a topic of conversation that spans generations and gives everyone a chance to weigh in on who they think is the best Duck to ever live.
While some focus has been spent on complaining about the players who didn’t make the cut to get into the 32-person bracket, for the most part, it has been an awesome experience to see everyone weigh in and vote on who they think should advance.
On Monday morning, we put out the first round of the bracket and had fans vote on Twitter to advance who they saw fit, with thousands of votes pouring in. That public bracket is down to an Elite 8 now. In order to catch up, I wanted to show how we advanced the bracket on the Sco-ing Long Podcast with JD Pluid and Shane Potter.
Here is what our bracket looks like after the first round (Note: Our bracket is different than the outcome of the voting on Twitter).

And now onto the Sweet 16, and the Elite 8 Here’s who we advanced through the next two rounds on the podcast. To find out who moves on from the Final 4 and is ultimately crowned the Greatest Duck of All Time, check back in on Friday at Ducks Wire.
