Most-Shared in... Oregon

December 06, 2010

With their Saturday win over Oregon State, the Oregon Ducks locked their trip to the BCS college football national championship game in January. Today, fans are celebrating in the state by sharing Ducks-related videos according to our data from Portland.

First is the emotional call of the games' finale by radio personality Jerry Allen. Second is a highlight montage set to parody song "Return of the Quack," the original video for which was popularly shared back in October and has racked up nearly a million views.

Last week, we dug into our trends for Birmingham to see what videos were surging following Auburn's victory over arch-rivals Alabama.

NCAA Trick Shots Trend

December 02, 2010

Outrageous basketball trickshots are practically tradition on YouTube -- see DudePerfect, whose videos have been viewed over 33 million times, or Legendary Shots -- but this year, some NCAA players at big time programs have also gotten in on the genre, creating their own compilations.

In the past month, this heavily shared video featuring Duke's Kyle Singler racked up 678,000+ views with only 8% coming from the state of North Carolina.
Now, this week, Syracuse guard Nick Resavy put out a video that saw a quick spike in viewers and was featured on sports blogs.
Way back in January, Ohio State's popular walk-on guard Mark Titus put out what's probably the most tongue-in-cheek montage in the lot, which was viewed over 375,000 times.

Big in Alabama...

November 29, 2010

It may not be much of a surprise, but the most shared videos today in the biggest cities in Alabama are tied to Auburn, which defeated in-state rivals the Crimson Tide in the Iron Bowl on Saturday and jumped the University of Oregon to reach the top slot in the BCS standings.

Of course, everyone in Alabama is certainly NOT an Auburn fan, and this take off on the recent scandal surrounding QB Cam Newton has also appeared in our charts.
