That’s still not official, the same “reported” story we’ve been hearing about for a week..but not announced by either school yet. They keep quoting themselves as a source. Seems like if there was actually an agreement it would have been announced by now.

Has this actually been agreed to starting in 2027? I have found lots of references to continuing with Beavis, but nothing indicating it’s actually been agreed to. Anyone know?

Hill and Davison, the future might not quite be today, but I think it is this season. They could be great! I hope I’m wrong, but the odds of Noah not being injured throughout the year are slim, and the transfer to date seems underwhelming.

Los Angeles recruiting and B1G membership off the top of my head. IMO, nobody with options is willingly choosing to move to Stoolwater 😜 UCLA is on the rise with NIL spending, right coach there could make some waves.

Don’t get me wrong, Droughns might be my all time favorite Duck, but I’m actually very optimistic about our frosh backs and was surprised that Noah was HB1 out of the gate. As a fan, it’s hard to get a feel when splitting carries between 7-8 guys to date.

Hard to imagine WS not taking UCLA over Okie.

Interesting list that has zero old guard B1G teams that aren’t tOSU or a team with a new coach. I’d flip some of the conversations circulating in the world and start taking a look at our pass defense efficiency. Hasn’t our goal always been to make teams one dimensional? Our pass defense has been so good teams getting blown out that should be airing it out have been unwilling or unable to do so. I believe Beavis threw for almost 300 against a very good Texas Tech on the road a week before us, but only managed 80 yards at Autzen on 7/22 passing. Give me a one dimensional, caveman football team to defend any day of the week!

Depends on the outcome, the environment doesn’t seem as tough when you win. Hard to quantify what makes something tough, but we have no shortage of appearances in some of the toughest venues. That being said of the most cited top-10 toughest places to play (which includes Beaver stadium) we’ve actually only played at Ohio Stadium and Autzen to date. So Beaver stadium should be in the running. Two not listed in most lists that are very tough when the teams are good IMO are Martin and Husky stadium.

Indiana is probably pretty good, but I take this as more of a statement about Illinois. Illinois was supposedly good last year and they left zero impression against us as we did our standard 35-3 at the half handling of inferior teams. No legitimate team should get boat raced by a fringe playoff team like they just did.

How’s it going UNC? They’re such a circus. Bubba Cunningham always trying to get a single season sideshow to boost ticket sales and just refuses to take football seriously. There’s way too much talent in that region for UNC and NCState to both consistently be such a clown show.

Trap game implies we’re good 😆

Run D officially not good. Beavis rushed for 8 yards last week.

They should have fired him last year, but they still worship the guy and allowed him to fire everyone and take a pay cut. I’d be surprised if they fire him before he “resigns” at the end of the year. They aren’t serious about winning beyond making a bowl game imo.

Slippery slope. I mean for anyone who is still into tracking high school kids two years from setting foot on campus, who am I to spoil your fun? I used to do the same thing. That being said, this is exactly why I don’t allow very much of my attention to be held by some random 16 year old. Executive summary for me 😆

And there’s a reason for that.

Whatever gets him clicks. 🤡

My real point is I don’t know how valid season stats are 3 games in when all 3 games were blowouts. We built a commanding lead on the road and put in our walk on QB which enabled the opponents offensive starters to get some disproportionate rushing yards and attempts against our 2nd and 3rd string D. If PSU rushes for 200+ against our starters I’ll change my tune. All IMO of course.

As long as there is never any orange I’m cool.

I’ll just say again that Florida International (house of pancakes) rushed for almost 150 in a blowout loss at Penn State. Do we think PSU will be easy to run against?

We just went through this last year. No reason to suspect we won’t see the exact same caveman football almost every week. The majority of teams in our new league don’t like the forward pass. We were ahead of a conference foe 31-0 on the road after three quarters, and they were still running the ball…that tells me all I need to know.

I’d say zero alert personally. Stats in garbage time during a blowout mean absolutely nothing imo. Florida International (house of pancakes) rushed for 141 AT PSU last week. Does that mean we’ll rush for 300?

There are definitely Beavis fans that are getting triggered by this color scheme…thumbs up!

The Oregonian this morning in reference to the game said “it feels less like a forth-coming rivalry game and more like a long-scheduled root canal for the Beavers”. I guess all the predictions of a 10-2 seasons are off the table.

Yes indeed. Both will be in their accustomed positions in their new G6.

My take away is we won by 20 in a dead environment with a 9am start against a B1G roster and didn’t seem to have any injuries. Every year we’re going to have a few workman like games and some of OBD fans will analyze it…a lot. In my rearview mirror personally.
