This is Funny! (Right?)
My first job out of college was exactly like that.

Pac-12 Considering Partnership With Amazon
It's on a downward trajectory, unfortunately for cable. I cut off Xfinity last year because T-Mobile launched 5G home wifi service in my area, I average anywhere from 200-400 mbps all day. Not quite as fast as Xfinity's offerings but more than enough for my home's needs plus NO DATA CAP. Now I get marketing mail from Xfinity every month trying to win me back with extra fast internet speeds with no data caps (but on a contract). They're seriously sweating the inevitable nationwide roll-out of ISP competition from the wireless companies.

Pac-12 Considering Partnership With Amazon
Having Amazon as a digital media partner would be exciting and makes a lot of sense. Given the prevalence of streaming service subscriptions and the fact that pretty much every smart TV in the sold in the last 5 years natively supports the Amazon Prime Video app (my remote has a dedicated Amazon Video button for Pete's sake), that's a pretty firm foundation to build on. If Amazon is truly serious about fully committing to dominating college football media on the western half of the country, I say go for it.

C'mon Justin Herbert...That is INSANE
It's what happens when you have all the natural talent in the world and finally get coaches that know how to develop a QB and design an offense around him. Justin's gonna demolish NFL defenses for years to come!

People in Utah Cheering FOR Oregon on Saturday? Really?
Miami at Texas A&M will be fun. I'm guessing Mario and his now revealed prevent offense will run into a very angry Aggies team that's looking to prove a point after last week's fiasco. Definitely tuning in for that one lol

That Was a Better "Get-Well" Game Than Anticipated...
I have a feeling that maybe Dillingham will continue to keep the offense dialed back for Nix because he may have accuracy issues on the longer passes. Either that or they can't trust him to be patient because it takes time for those downfield routes to be run.

Nebraska Fires Scott Frost
Peterson is burned out and has said as much. He couldn't keep up with the recruiting effort that's necessary nowadays so he left.

Nebraska Fires Scott Frost
Frost had several years worth of failure at Nebraska. Notre Dame's coach has only had the job for 3 games, 2 of those were last year's bowl game and this year against Ohio State. I'd give him a little more slack if I were a Notre Dame fan (I'm not).

Whoa! Take a Look at These Scores...Big Upset!
Who wants to bet Scott Frost doesn't make it past game 4?

USC Defense On Track to Give Up 600 Yards of Offense to Stanford.
Riley's never cared much for defense...that is until he runs into a good defense like Dave Aranda's Baylor, then he's in trouble.

Join Us! GameDay Thread vs. Eastern Washington
You should've predicted the WSU game instead!

Join Us! GameDay Thread vs. Eastern Washington
Ugh I didn't like them showing that Travis Dye highlight 😛 Watching the INT made me feel a little better though

Join Us! GameDay Thread vs. Eastern Washington
Oh man, Nix got really lucky on that one. He should carry Ferguson's backpack for him all day Monday.

Join Us! GameDay Thread vs. Eastern Washington
Offensive line feels inconsistent, good execution on one play then total penetration into the pocket by EWU the next.
-
Join Us! GameDay Thread vs. Eastern Washington
Wittingham feels like the better of the two. Not sure why Cardwell and Dollars aren't getting any carries though...

Join Us! GameDay Thread vs. Eastern Washington
Good tough run into the end zone by Ferguson. He was one of the few bright spots last game, I hope he's more of a focus for the passing offense going forward.

Eugene Air Quality
158 up here in Seattle. Ash has dusted all over the cars.

OBD Prediction Contest vs. Eastern Washington!
Oregon 42-24 2 2 240 It'll be an improved but still rough performance as both the offense and defense personnel continue to figure things out.
-
Watching the UCF/Louisville Game...
UCF is still running Chip's offense even long after Scott Frost left. Watching the Golden Knights march down the field in 2 minutes or less to score brings back a lot of nostalgia. I can only hope OBD bring an offense as potent as that tomorrow and for the rest of the season. 🤞

EWU Broadcast?
Not a bad spot to be in. You could also watch it on your phone via the Sling or Fubo apps while relaxing.
-
Does The Transfer Clock Start Today?
I also think credit should be given to the defender who was basically horizontal to the ground mid-air to snag that INT. I think 99/100 times would have been an incomplete pass in ordinary circumstances, it was a pretty exceptional play by that CB.

The Oregon Ducks Offense: The Bunch Toss
Looking back on the game, I can now understand why DL left his starters in on offense in the 4th quarter. He knows his players' understanding of the new schemes is rough at this stage, so he might as well leave them in for game time reps. Not the ideal circumstance but necessary to get at least some kind of benefit out of a really bad situation.

Curious About the Character of the Team That Will Emerge?
The offense just needs to cut down on mistakes. Bo Nix needs to dial it back and play within himself and not try ill-conceived heroic plays...when he didn't the offense actually moved the ball very well. The rest of the offense, particularly the OL need to cut down on penalties (there were at least a couple false starts at crucial times which killed drives). The defense just needs to improve all around, particularly finishing those tackles. I anticipate OBD will beat EWU it's just a matter of how much. The difference in the score will indicate how much improvement has happened over the course of this week. I'll only feel better if it's at least a 4-TD win...

Oregon/Georgia GameDay Thread!
Nope. It feels like they’re still trying to figure out which 2-3 backs they want to use.
-
Oregon/Georgia GameDay Thread!
I wasn’t expecting Oregon to win but I did expect them to be at least competitive. The defense in particular is atrocious. These tackling issues had to have shown up in practice previously, I doubt the coaches didn’t know about it. The question for me is what they’re doing about it?
