: Outdoor practice fields/Autzen Stadium: ShellsThe Ducks went into Autzen Stadium and under the lights Sunday night, midway through the third practice of preseason camp. It felt like a grand stage, with freshly laid, vibrant new turf covering the field, and the team answered with an entertaining, intense performance.This wasn't officially a scrimmage, but it had all the feel of one. Pads were popping, big plays were made, players were barking back and forth and the energy was crackling.On the first play of 11-on-11 drills in the stadium,busted through the line of scrimmage and into the second level on a run play. On the next snap,sniffed out a pass play, picked it off right at the line and took it to the house for a pick-six.Moments later,found his trusted targetdeep over the middle of the field, and the offense had answered with a touchdown of its own."I think it definitely energized everybody," Winston said of practicing in Autzen. "That gave us the juice, that gave us the momentum, and it carried throughout the rest of practice."As much as anyone, Herbert stepped up on the big stage. A few reps after the long pass to Breeland, he had another to. In between,hitdeep over the middle of the field for another long gain. "Bombs over Baghdad," a frustrated defensive player called it."Something felt different," Breeland said afterward. "I don't know what it was; obviously the turf is new. But it felt really good to be back in here. And the surface felt amazing; it felt really good cutting and moving around on it. So I'm just excited."The energetic practice capped the first three-day session of preseason camp. The challenge for the Ducks will be to sustain their energy through an off day, and through the dog days of August that are to come.Winston, for one, didn't seem concerned."I mean, I think it's just the beginning," he said.
