LIVE GAME THREAD: Oregon Ducks Spring Football Game

The day is finally here! Oregon will compete in its annual spring football game. We don't know the fine details for the format just yet, whether that will be two separate teams or the offense against the defense.

We do know the first half will be completely live and the second half will have a running clock and be conducted in the "thud" format, where there is contact but the staff tries to avoid full-on live tackling to prevent injuries.

Where: Autzen Stadium (Eugene, Oregon)

When: Saturday May 1, 2021 2 p.m. PST

TV: Pac-12 Network

TV Crew: Former Oregon Defensive Coordinator Nick Allioti and former Ducks wide receiver Jordan Kent. Mario Cristobal is expected to be interviewed throughout the game.

Stream: Sling, Fubo

Listen: Oregon Sports Network from Learfield IMG College
