Family members of several dozen UO football players watched the Ducks scrimmage inside Autzen Stadium on Saturday, and afterward attended a barbecue outside the Hatfield-Dowlin Complex.
What they witnessed from their seats on the south side of Autzen — big plays on both sides of the ball, and also special teams — made for an entertaining afternoon matinee.
"We got better today, absolutely we got better," UO head coach Dan Lanning said following the scrimmage, Oregon's second of this preseason. "There's a lot to clean up. But today was a good day of practice."
Taken as a whole, Saturday's scrimmage unfolded as a mirror image of the first preseason scrimmage seven days earlier.
