Let's see if this week's episode has a little more shelf life.

This week, Tyson and Justin try to make sense of Oregon's offensive meltdown, the growing pressure on Dan Lanning and his coordinators, and whether the Ducks can salvage their season.

Plus, looking back at some historically bad Oregon offenses, the case for Brock Thomas and why "Hey Jude" was definitely a choice for a miserable afternoon at Autzen Stadium.

Dylan Raiola is getting his shot. What happens if he makes the most of it?

Tyson and Justin are back to preview Oregon's matchup with undefeated UCLA, a game that could have major implications for the Ducks' season — and their quarterback situation. Is UCLA following the Indiana blueprint? Can Raiola build on his impressive performance against USC? And how does Dan Lanning navigate things if his backup quarterback starts looking like a star?

Plus, Oregon's new uniforms, AP poll conspiracy theories and the guys say farewell to longtime Mariners broadcaster Rick Rizzs.

Oregon-USC is back, and this one comes with a little more weight than usual.

Tyson and Justin look ahead to the Ducks’ trip to the Coliseum, why Saturday feels like a prove-it game for both programs and how Oregon-USC evolved into one of the West Coast’s defining matchups.

They also revisit the debate over Oregon’s 84-0 win over Portland State, wonder whether Dan Lanning’s Ducks have ever faced this much regular-season pressure and revisit some of the biggest Oregon-USC moments of the last 30 years.

Oregon’s loss at Oklahoma State was bad. The days that followed weren’t much smoother.

Tyson and Justin dig into whether the Ducks’ early-season struggles are actually part of a larger Dan Lanning September trend, what Portland State can realistically tell us and whether Oregon can get things fixed before USC. Plus, the strange postgame media saga, Dante Moore’s missing interview and the eternal question: are college football players pros or kids?

Tyson and Justin are back to unpack Oregon’s much-too-interesting 34-27 win over Boise State. Was it a concerning opener or are the “Oregon is a fraud” takes getting a little ahead of themselves? The guys talk Dante Moore, Dakorien Moore’s growing fun factor, Evan Stewart and the punt-return adventure, Boise dancing to “Shout” and whether Dan Lanning has an emergency play sheet for disrespect.

Then it’s on to Oklahoma State, Stillwater heat, questionable barbecue geography and a 9 a.m. kickoff before diving into Michigan’s mysterious secret clock and the most on-brand Traffic Report story possible: I-5 is actually shutting down.

It’s finally football season.

Tyson and Justin open with the most important question of Week 1: What exactly is perfect college football weather? From there, they make their Oregon predictions, debate whether Dante Moore can improve his draft stock and whether this is the year Dan Lanning finally gets over the hump — while unpacking the strange burden of Oregon’s decades-long “can’t win the big one” history.

Plus: how to fix the Autzen Stadium intro video, why USC’s empty seats somehow became Oregon-Washington internet warfare, saying goodbye to summer sports, the absurdity of food-delivery fees, a completely unnecessary re-litigation of Moneyball and the very specific joy of getting a table for NFL Sunday brunch.

Happy football season, everybody.

Football season is finally here.

Tyson Alger and Justin Myers close the book on Oregon’s fall camp and take a look at what’s ahead for the Ducks in 2026. How much can we really learn from a schedule in the transfer portal era? Which games should Oregon fans actually be worried about? And has Oregon reached the point where a national championship is the only thing left to accomplish?

They dig into the baggage that comes with Boise State, circle USC, Nebraska, Illinois and the brutal November stretch, wonder what exactly happened to the aura of Chip Kelly and debate some of the most consequential inches in Oregon football history.

Plus: Costco complaints, dangerously hot Mexican restaurant plates, the rules surrounding half-eaten office donuts, a plea to stop saying “spill the tea” and a small tease of Tyson’s 800-mile attempt to understand Dan Lanning.

It’s the final Traffic Report before Week 1.

Welcome back to The I-5 Corridor’s Traffic Report.

After a two-week break, Tyson and Justin are back for the start of fall camp, and this week they catch up on media days, early-season hype and whether the Ducks and Beavers should keep doing the weird September thing.

Then, it’s on to Ichiro. The Mariners’ legend is officially a Hall of Famer, but where does he rank in the pantheon of best Mariners of all time?
