Pasadena isn't necessarily know for its fashion scene. They usually leave the trends, and slow moving traffic to the people of Los Angeles. But in an odd Rose Bowl, one that was played on January 2nd, both those came west for the Grand-Daddy of them All.
The Rose Bowl Parade is nothing new, as the traditions of the game run as deep as Mariana's Trench. But the sense of style, in the form of new uniforms and slick metallic gleamed helmets, was all the buzz. (If Tweeting and Twitter make a buzz, then what do bees make?But thats for another day.)
Yet the uniforms were nothing more than a cover up.
Oregon is arguably one of the best teams in the nation. They consistently bring in talent, and aren't in the process of slowing down anytime soon. (On and off the field.) But while the plethora of skill and swag the Ducks have there is one thing they is the overriding factor in why they are where they are right now. And that is coaching.
The Ducks are the most well coached team in college football. Chip Kelly knows how to get players to commit to the program, to come to Eugene and to buy into his system, and he knows how to coach football in this day in age.
They play fast and they win. Oh, and they look the part.

I love the Ducks and their high speed offense. It's the most exciting team in college or pro football. I think their secret is the crazy uni's, helmets, and shoes. Those wings seem to propel them. Love college football. I was lucky enough to be at the Utah/CU game this year. What a fun game.
