That is a much better start time than it has been in years past.

The early start time was so fans could take in a baseball or softball game after the scrimmage. I took in several Duck baseball games which kind of justifies the drive down to Eugene.

Oh, I wasn't aware of that. I suppose that does make it easier to justify driving from Portland, doesn't it? Could they not just schedule that game later, though?

ya I've gone to softball game twice after it, but I think this year's spring game is at the same time softball plays that day.

Yeah, Ducks have a home softball game scheduled for 3 p.m. that day vs Stanford (http://goducks.com/schedule.aspx?path=softball). Gotta think the softball program isn't thrilled with the football program's choice of game time. I won't be surprised if the softball game gets moved to 6 p.m. or so. Shouldn't be a huge hardship since Stanford is in town for a game the next day as well.

I like the later start. I don't want to wake up at 7AM on a Saturday, and I want to eat my Track Town before the game.

Looks like the baseball game against OSU is at 4PM. I imagine they will push it back a bit. Not sure if I'll be in the Caribbean that week, but if not it sounds like a great Saturday. Hopefully the weather is as nice as 2017 and 2016.

Caribbean vs Duck Spring game.......... I love my Ducks but that’s a tough call especially if the wife and kids are involved, can’t blame anyone for that. Plus if you have Dish or Charter (maybe Sling) you can watch it online. Just take a laptop and HDMI cable to watch it on a bigger screen.

Oh trust me, I'm going no matter what I just haven't decided if it will be that week or the one before. This may very well be the deciding factor. No wife or kids, but a girlfriend who loves Oregon baseball and knows this would most likely be the only Oregon baseball game we go to this year.

Thanks for the tip, I've got Dish (thanks to Pac-12 network for forcing me to switch from DirecTV). However, as I've learned from my past experiences there WiFi can be slow and I'm okay with just DVRing it. It's just an awesome reason to drive down to Eugene and hit up our favorite food places and get a small dose of football to tide me over until September.

This doesn't seem like much of a decision to me unless the airfare and lodging is significantly cheaper that week.

Oh I was assuming they were at home based on the discussion. That does change things a bit, though it should be noted that the fourth quarter of the Spring Game is generally skippable and Corvallis isn't really that out of the way for someone heading from Eugene to Portland. Unless he wanted to chill in Eugene after the baseball game, he could easily head down in the morning, hit up <food places>, leave the football game around 3:15 or 3:20 when it starts dragging, and head to Corvallis for the baseball game before returning to Portland.
