Oregon Ducks football venues

Record: 1 win, 0 losses, 0 ties Early in the university's history, athletic events of all types were played on an open field on the west side of the Oregon campus square.

[3] In May 1894, the Oregon baseball team began playing games there, and the field was set up for football in late November for the Pacific contest on Thanksgiving Day.

[1] The university had leased the rights to use the field and make necessary improvements from Harrison Kincaid, a local pioneer and newspaper publisher, who spent two terms as Oregon's Secretary of State.

Workers constantly battled the elements to provide a field suitable for play; at least one football was lost in the mud during a game.

[9] Oregon Agricultural College's student news reporter described Kincaid during the 1915 game as "a cross between a duck pond and a hog wallow"; the Eugene Guard's correspondent said "The field was a sea of mud, not deep, but wet and slippery.

Record: 98 wins, 35 losses, 10 ties The multi-purpose facility known as Hayward Field became Oregon's campus game site in 1919.

Unlike the opponents typically faced in Portland, Oregon's games in Eugene were often against teams that provided more reasonable competition.

Prink Callison had a 14–1 record at Hayward Field, the lone loss coming in the last game he coached, against Oregon State in 1937.

[13] The Ducks played their last home game at Hayward Field on November 5, 1966, suffering a narrow loss to Washington State.

[17] Record: 178 wins, 93 losses, 5 ties The need for a larger stadium in Eugene was recognized by UO Athletic Director Leo Harris in the late 1950s, and Harris persuaded Oregon's administration to purchase property in Eugene's North Bank Park, about a mile north of the campus, for construction of a stadium.
