Oregon has twice played in the national championship game in its football history. This year's team has everything it needs to become the third, and the first to win it. Just ask a guy who has seen it all!

On today's episode of Locked On Ducks, Spencer McLaughlin is joined by longtime 'Voice of the Ducks' Jerry Allen. He shares his thoughts on Dante Moore, the culture Dan Lanning has established, and much more for this upcoming season.

Jerry has had the privilege of calling many iconic moments over the years, not just 'The Pick' back in 1994. Which moments stand out? Jerry shares some of those stories and talks about the exciting games to call this year.

ESPN faces backlash over unchecked SEC bias, stirring questions about college football media narratives. The Big 10 Squad debates Peter Burns’ misleading SEC vs. Big Ten strength of schedule claims, examining how media giants influence perceptions and why networks like Fox and CBS hesitate to match ESPN’s promotional energy for the Big Ten. Ohio State’s and Penn State’s identical 9.5 win totals spark heated predictions. The roundtable breaks down Ryan Day’s daunting schedule—including Texas, USC, Oregon, and Michigan—and evaluates whether the Buckeyes can surpass lofty expectations or stumble amid fierce competition. Insights into Penn State’s revamped roster, key transfers, and Big Ten title aspirations add intrigue. Will Ohio State’s offensive line issues cost them a playoff shot, or does Jeremiah Smith’s star power make the difference? The hosts weigh bold over/under picks for the season ahead.
