The 1976 Oregon Ducks football team represented the University of Oregon in the Pacific-8 Conference (Pac-8) during the 1976 NCAA Division I football season. Led by third-year head coach Don Read, the Ducks were 4–7 overall (1–6 in the Pac-8, tied for last), and were outscored 271 to 144.
Six days after the season-ending win at Oregon State in the Civil War, Read was fired on the day after Thanksgiving.[1][2][3] with a year remaining on a four-year contract ($28,000 annually).[2] He was succeeded by 35-year-old Rich Brooks in mid-December.[4][5][6][7]
