I LOVE this. Count me in, and there is nothing that osu2 fans can do about it!

OK...I shouldn't be so hasty....

Bad memories... This grey uniform-pant stuff is NOT inspiring me...

Awful....just awful.

OK...I guess we've had grey pants other than the disasters again WSU and at Cal. (2011)

Instead of grey pants...silver ones to match the helmet would have been cool.

I don't know about the grey pants, but it matches the helmet well. If it makes our players more aggressive and angry--good.

It feels that with all the incredible experience....they could truly platoon them if they wanted. I do wish Angel would shoot more; so smooth...

First they besmirch the past accomplishments of the Pac-12 by continuing the name, and now they dishonor the valid accomplishments of their own prior deserving Oregon State teams of the past? From the B1G? I feel...So SAD for Them!

Commemorating a win over....the Cougars?

Wow. Winning the B1G? What a year that would be....and then Baseball? If we won both football and Basketball... I'm sure the B1G would handle it just fine?

Agreed, but more revenue for Oregon's Athletic Department! Perhaps different deals for different networks that cover particular games in the past, with State Farm being the sponsor for the Playoffs?

Wish I could have seen it! It would appear they fought off Aztec runs in the second half. Whew!

Up by seven with five and half minutes left! 68-61

About as pathetic is when, in 1991, they beat a battered and injured Oregon team to finish the year 1-10 and they actually created a video..."We Own the State." Which is worse?

Halftime Score: Oregon 41 SDST 31 I am surprised at the surge at the end of the half as it was neck-and-neck for the majority of the half. When these guys turn it on...wow. Now, let's finish!

Give that man a beer!

Additional revenue from licensing deals with the CFP, is another revenue source split within the conference. It appears that State Farm logos are being added to Autzen in case we lose the B1G Championship game, and host a first round. I do not know what the sponsorship amount is yet, but it must be sizable, thus the thread about our new B1G revenue has yet another piece where the amount is unknown. I just know it would be much more than if we'd stayed put...

Reading that above....was it as good for you as it was for me? Oh yeah.

I want to give Pickard4Heisman on ScoopDuck credit for the research, and since it was on a pay-site, I thought I would share his findings with us all. I am rewriting parts of if for better clarity and emphasis, as this was eye-popping to me. To start...remember that the Pac-12 Media deal we declined on from Apple was 23 million per year, with subscriber levels that had to be met. For Oregon's new B1G Media contract, we receive a 50% share of regular season TV money, which is 30 million, with $1m extra each year until 2030. Oregon's allocation from the B1G of Playoff money--for the conference just being a part of the CFB Playoff is 21 million per year, for each of the 18 teams of the B1G. This is a starting amount of 51 million per year for joining our new conference. Thus by just being in the B1G...we get over double the Pac-12 offer in the first year from just these first two revenue sources. Know that Washington is receiving the same 51 million for just being in the B1G conference as well, and thus why it was a no-brainer making the change for both NW schools when you get double to start, and this is with a half-share of the media contract! (That goes WAY UP with a new media contract, when the Ducks will receive a 100% share in 2031) Most important, Oregon keeps 100% of the post season revenue we earn now. Whew! CFB Playoff Participation Revenue $4 million for each of the 12 teams that makes the College Football Playoff $4 million for each of the 8 teams that makes the College Football Playoff Quarterfinals $6 million for each of the 4 teams that makes the College Football Playoff Semifinals $6 million for each of the 2 teams that makes the College Football Playoff National Championship Game Each team who participates in the College Football Playoff receives an additional $3 million to cover expenses for each round. So you can do the math and see that Oregon's entire 160 Million Athletic Budget could have half of it paid if the Ducks make the 'Natty--from just these three revenue sources. There are more revenue sources, but that is for another time. The important thing is to see how much better we are in the first year of being in the B1G, and we returned the favor to the conference with our football performance.

Amen, Duck Brother.

Good topic, because at the beginning of the year--Sappington had a case of the "yips" as I think he might have been a touch intimidated by being in a bigger-stage with his kicks making a larger impact. But he settled down and has been almost money since, and I'm glad for him and us. Bottom line is that I am OK with him kicking the game winner, as he has done versus Boise State, Ohio State and Wisconsin. The punter? He has been a bit more inconsistent this year, and I hope he gets it worked out soon. That is seven out of ten for me...

I watched the game last night, and am still blown away by the comeback. TAMU was in control and just pounding on us, and yet our guys are fighters. Their experience really came through, and having three games where things were going badly, but we recovered, is so helpful for their confidence now, and for big games later. And great defense at clutch time! Keep it going!
