Brain Drain- Most Aggravating Player Mistakes
Yeah.. I managed to black out those instances but I remember now. I have Also blacked out things like a bowl game in 2015 in Texas.... I'm am thankfully blissfully unaware what could have happened there.

This Week's ESPN Bottom Ten Football Rankings
Personally... I struggle to look away. It's a fascinating train wreck. In many ways a really really bad Beaver team is a bad look for the State of Oregon. However... That matters less now as the two premier teams in the state are in drastically different places.

Uniform Reveal for Indiana Game...'Whatever!'
We wore the yellow top in another game last year I want to say. I want to say we went full bumble bee one game.

I mean this is from 10 years ago but it makes me smile every time.

Uniform Reveal for Indiana Game...'Whatever!'
I think they opted against stormtrooper v PSU because they wanted some contrasting colors against the all white backdrop. Stormtrooper all white with an all white backdrop might have been a bit much. It would have been really cool no doubt.

Uniform Reveal for Indiana Game...'Whatever!'
This goes back to my complaint about the generation O uniform collection we're running. It has two different color pallets... A retro and a modern. There isn't a green top in the modern color palette. There is the highlighter yellow though and that was the uniform I was expecting with the crowd wearing yellow.

TV Picture Quality for Indiana Game
I've been doing a Pay nothing approach to college football this year... or pay nothing more than I am already paying. I picked up a TV antenna for the games on Fox, NBC and CBS and any other over the airwaves games. It has worked pretty well and the picture quality is pretty good as well as like a decade ago all the over the airwaves stuff moved to a digital HD feed. Otherwise ... I came across on another Duck forum a site that streams all the other channels. Those channels have looked fine on my phone, which sadly has been my primary streaming device as I try not to just have the TV on all the time with the kids around who will get upset that it's not their shows. Granted... I do make them deal with me watching my ONE Duck game a week. If anyone is interested in this legally dubious site you can send me a direct message. I don't know how Charles would feel about it just floating around otherwise. I haven't encountered anything wrong with it but any site that is just streaming all the TV channels without requiring a fee is a bit fishy.

NCAA Officially Adopts New Transfer Portal Rules, Including Major Adjustment for Players After Coaching Change
I mean yes... it is more important for most coaches and players. But... the NCAA still needs to give the illusion that these are student athletes. So trying to ensure they can transfer and enroll in a timely fashion is important. Also... as soon as a player enters the portal they surrender their scholarship. So it might put some student athletes stuck in limbo where they aren't enrolled in a school. If college football is broken away from college none of this matters but for the time being it is still connected to education.

Issues at that point with students enrolling. They do still need to be student athletes. The new window makes that a bit more difficult but pushing it into February means many students might not be able to enroll until after spring camp which is counter productive. For schools on the quarter system, like Oregon, that wouldn't be so bad but more schools are on semesters and that locks students in or out until summer.

Browns Trade Joe Flacco...so Dillon is THE MAN?
A lost opportunity for a Husky is a gained opportunity for a Duck!

I Am EASILY AMUSED...Funnies & Facts
Oh it could get worse... They have Northwestern this Saturday. If they lose that game then Franklin is going to get Kiffened, fired on the tarmac and not allowed to get on the bus home... but this is a home game for Penn State so I guess the equivalent to that is firing him in the tunnel and locking him out of the lockeroom.

Oregon Broke Penn State
I watched Franklin's post game and they did put a spy on him. But... Either the spy wiffed their tackled on Nico or Nico caught them on a play they went man and didn't have a spy. I don't know how actually true that is or isn't but that's what Franklin said. Penn State Washington without a stating linebacker who was really one of the primary communicators. However, Moore ran for some important yards and first downs against a full strength Penn State defense. So their defense has problems.

Oregon Broke Penn State
I'm not sure Day was glad to see him go in that sense. From a bunch of sources I have read/listened to was really the Day and Knowles had run their course. Day had become more of a micro manger and Knowles lost some of his autonomy. Warranted or not... That sort of thing gets old fast. So we'll see what happens at Penn State. Personally, I'm not sure he is the best DC in college football but the media loves saying it and Knowles is getting paid like the best DC so he better have answers.

Are You Reconsidering Your Respect for the CFB 'Experts?'
Pare had an interesting piece on how dynasties are kinda dead in college football and that's because the depth on every top tier team is thinner than ever. I see his point but I also can absolutely see teams that know how to reload and preserve their rosters could build some sort of dynasty. When it comes down to it there are few in the college football media that knows enough about every team to actually be truly informed. In the past with the super powers it was easy... Bama, Georgia, Clemson, Ohio State and whoever else you want to add to the list is going to be good and will contend. I mean how many times have we watched an Oregon game and found the announcers to know almost nothing about the team? A lot! And now the amount of teams that could potentially make the playoffs (not contend for the national championship) has exploded and these pundits don't know. Penn State Washington the bigger brand and the easier pick so they picked Penn State over Oregon. The old assumptions don't hold as.much weight as they used to because 10 years ago Oregon probably loses that game against Penn State.

Oh Beavis....Lost to Appalachian State?
In fairness .... Boise is not on par with Boise from last year.
