Apparently, a feathered mascot can pack quite a punch, as evidenced by this video,
via Larry Brown Sports, of the Oregon Duck mascot physically assaulting the Houston Cougar mascot two weeks ago.
As a result, the
Oregon mascot has been suspended for this week's game against Fresno State. But if
Lassie can take a Bulldog in multiple overtimes, I'd suspect we'd have no doubt what kind of harm this Duck could inflict on the mascot from the San Joaquin.
