PORTLAND, Ore. (KTVZ) — This week, the Oregon FBI’s Tech Tuesday segment focuses on building a digital defense against Google Voice authentication scams. What is Google Voice? It’s a service – brought to you by Google, of course – that allows you to set up a new virtual phone number that can be used to make domestic and international calls or send and receive text messages. You don’t even have to have a Google Voice account to get scammed in this particular scheme…. Source link

The Oregon and Utah sequel went much like the first game two weeks prior. No. 17 Utah (10-3) jumped out to a 23-0 lead in the first half Friday night on the way to a 38-10 victory over the Ducks to win the Pac-12 and go to the Rose Bowl for the first time. Utah led 28-0 at halftime of a 38-7 win over Oregon on Nov. 20. And the halftime leads in each game were inflated by late Oregon mistakes. In November, Utah’s Britain Covey returned a punt 78 yards for a touchdown as time expired. Friday… Source link

THE DALLES, Ore. (AP) — The city of The Dalles, Oregon, has filed suit in an effort to keep Google’s water use a secret. The move comes ahead of a key City Council vote on a $28.5 million water pact between the city and the tech giant. The Oregonian/OregonLive reports the city is seeking to overturn a ruling earlier from Wasco County’s district attorney, who found Google’s water use is a public record and ordered The Dalles to provide that information to the news organization. The city… Source link

Oregon State’s run to the Elite Eight may have been the biggest surprise of a surprise-laden NCAA tournament. The journey came to a heartbreaking end on Monday. Houston put the clamps down on the Pac-12 Cinderella early and fended off a furious second-half rally for a 67-61 win to punch its ticket to the Final Four. The trip to the national semifinals marks the first Final Four trip for the program since Hakeem Olajuwon led Phi Slamma Jamma to its second-straight title game appearance in… Source link

Oregon’s first game in the NCAA tournament was phenomenal. The No. 7 Ducks blistered No. 2 Iowa on the way to a 95-80 upset win over the Hawkeyes in the second round of the West region. Oregon scored 56 points in the first half and shot 56% from the field as Iowa was helpless to stop the Ducks’ offense. Though the game wasn’t incredibly competitive throughout most of the second half it was one of the most entertaining of the tournament so far. Unless you’re an Iowa fan. That fun should have… Source link

The Oregon Ducks will look to defend their back-to-back Pac-12 conference titles in 2021 and one media outlet expects Oregon to be a top ten team when the season rolls around. Yahoo released its “way-too-early” top 25 for the 2021 college football season this week with Oregon checking in as the No. 10 team in their rankings.  The Ducks are the highest-ranked Pac-12 team in Yahoo’s top 25 with USC at No. 14, Arizona State at No. 19, and Washington at No. 24.  In placing the Ducks… Source link

USC’s comeback magic ran out against Oregon. Kedon Slovis threw his third interception of the game with 2:47 to go as the No. 13 Trojans (5-1) fell 31-24 to Oregon (4-2) in the Pac-12 title game. The interception came as Slovis was scrambling to his right and appeared to simply need to throw the ball away. But instead of firing the ball deep into the USC bench he threw it along the sideline. That allowed safety Jamal Hill to make a play on the ball and secure the interception with his right… Source link

The highest-ranked team in the Pac-12 is no longer unbeaten. Entering the weekend, Oregon was 3-0, ranked No. 15 in the College Football Playoff rankings and one of the few Pac-12 teams to play all of its games. Now, Oregon is 3-1 and might fall out of the CFP rankings altogether after losing to rival Oregon State on Friday night in Corvallis. Oregon led most of the evening, but allowed the Beavers to stay within arm’s length. The Ducks have had some turnover issues so far this season, and… Source link
