My Take.....
This one was inspired by the
tune "Down At The Place To Be"; a red hot blues tune .... Created at the
beginning of and for the 2005 season. It fits since Autzen has become
widely recognized as "pound-for-pound" one of the loudest, hostile stadiums in
the country.
The Holiday Bowl loss this year highlighted the fact we still had a ways to go to reach the mountaintop. The Oklahoma game in 2006 at Autzen showed we were getting closer....A controversial onside kick captured the fancy of sports nation....a laast second block of an Oklahoma field goal attempt saved the victory. .......and STILL....
Nice. Go Ducks.
