VIDEO: ‘94 Gang Green Pac-10 champions tribute

EUGENE — Oregon's Game 10 uniform reveal revisiting 'Gang Green' the tribute jersey makes it clear at first glance: The 30th-anniversary party for Oregon's 1994 Pac-10 Championship squad is officially underway.

Oregon’s mid-July uniform reveal included this Gang Green Design Deep Dive video featuring eight-year NFL veteran DB Alex Molden from Oregon’s 1994 conference championship team.

The 2024 30-year throwbacks blend contemporary fit with historical gestures to Oregon's success in the closing chapter of the Rich Brooks era:

The modern cut of cap sleeves with the current Duck icon is reminiscent of the Fighting Ducks motif of the 1980s and early '90s.
The modern iteration of the Oregon O helmet decal in place of the currently favored Wing lids, a clear reflection of the minimalist helmet decor of the Coach Brooks era.
All in contemporary tones of Oregon’s traditional green and yellow.

30-year throwback

Not only is 2024 the first season of Oregon's move to the Big Ten. It's also the 30th anniversary of the 1994 squad cementing nearly two decades of Brooks' relentless building of Oregon’s championship foundation.

Molden and I sat down recently to discuss the 1994 team’s decisive step up from a 5-6 previous season, and their transformation to Pac-10 champions.

"It shows when you can lock-in and put the team ahead of yourself you can do some really powerful things.”

Oregon recovered from a 1-2 start in '94 to beat three ranked conference opponents in a span of five games, then went on to win Oregon's first outright Pac-10 title and earn the Ducks’ first Rose Bowl appearance in 37 years.
