EUGENE -- Grading game video is usually a late-night, bleary-eyed routine for coaches, pushed into the wee hours thanks to college football's late kickoffs and TV windows.
You would think Oregon's 11 a.m. kickoff Saturday would make things different for Ducks coach Mario Cristobal. But any reprieve was only theoretical. It would still be dark by the time he left his video bunker in the Hatfield-Dowlin Complex, rewatching the 23rd-ranked Ducks' 62-14 rout of Portland State.
"I know you get to enjoy football and your barbecue but we've got to go do our grading for the next, about, eight hours," Cristobal said.
