The Oregon Duck is one of the best mascots in college football. Maybe even the best.
The Duck is hilarious and chaotic and often a total wild card with impressive game-day entrances, like the time last season when it ziplined into the stadium to Mission Impossible music. The Duck has also been known to occasionally lose its head, like when it trolled Deion Sanders too hard.
Well, Friday ahead of the Oregon-Purdue game in West Lafayette, the Duck had an entrance that was both chaotic and briefly left it headless.
While running on the field at the Boilermakers’ Ross-Ade Stadium, the Duck was surrounded by Oregon players, and everything was fine. Until it quickly wasn’t when the stampede of players became too much and defensive back Sione Laulea took out the Duck, who fell and lost its head for a moment before recovering well.
The Duck seemed OK, and the players definitely seemed fine as they cruised to a dominant 35-0 victory.
