EUGENE, Ore. -- The University of Oregon pulled a student viral fan video for Ducks football because of copyright fears regarding the school mascot.

UO Athletic Department spokesman Dave Willford said they liked to video -- but there was the potential of copyright issues with Disney over the appearance of the duck.

UO is the only NCAA school with an agreement in place to use a character with a Disney resemblance, in this case, Donald Duck.

Students said the video was a "clean and a positive" rap video supporting the ducks can still be found on Facebook.
