		Crap. Bedford Hurt AGAIN in Practice...
		
		This is no longer the concern for me that it once was. They look like they have figured out a line that works even without Bedford. I only recall seeing him in for one offensive possession during the Civil War and that was after the game was already in hand. I think as long as they can continue to refine this line-up they can let Bedford get himself as near 100 as possible before tOSU.

		Sports Psychology Extrapolates a LOSS for the Ducks vs. the Beavers
		
		With a 12 team playoff field, the margin of error has grown to where a loss isn't suddenly the end of the world. One could argue that a loss could be the medicine needed for THIS team. I am not advocating that it should become the norm for a team to experience adversity in the form of a loss in order to finally start clicking. However, I do believe that this team has bought in too hard to the pre-season hype. They need a chip on their shoulders. The OL needs to play like their season depends on it every game. I do think that with time, Lanning will become good at being able to manufacture this type of playing attitude. However, this 2024 team doesn't seem to have fully bought into that just yet. A loss early on could very well be the thing to right this ship in time for tOSU, Michigan, Wisconsin, and prove the doubters that we are ready for the B1G.

		Uniform Reveal for Boise State Game...
		
		Seems like the trend at Nike the past few years has been more towards the monochromatic look. Big main colors with smaller accents rather than the flair of the middle 2000's. Still, I'm pretty confident they have more combinations to reveal. I remember the teaser from back in spring showing a design board with lots of line items on it.

		With a Lefty QB, It’s Time to Flip the Offensive Line
		
		They knew they were working with a left handed QB since before spring practices. IMO they chose to put the guys in place to protect his blind side back in April. They have been practicing this way for 5 months. I think the switching of positions to account for Bedford's absence is the bigger issue. I don't like that there isn't a #2 that can slide into his place and leave the rest of the line intact. For all the talk about the depth of the team this season, you would think this would give us the ability to keep Poncho at center and replace the Bedford with the next man up. This won't be the last time we lose a man on the line for a game this season...

		Whoops!  Ty Thompson...
		
		Ty Thompson's talent on high school film reminded me a lot of Vince Howard from Friday Night Lights. He seemed to excel at improvising and doing whatever he wanted after the ball was snapped; in terms of getting it to playmakers. However, when he moved into the structure of a D1 offensive system which required him to make the plays that were called, he seemed to lose himself in the schematics. It seems like he has a lot of trouble reading a playbook, the game hasn't slowed down for him in 4 years.

		Deion Declares: "No Wonder OBD Did So Well Last Year"
		
		Colorado under Deion was a joke in the PAC and now the Big 12 is about to find out why. I'd love to see him try and get mouthy before playing Oklahoma St. at home on November 29th just to have Mike Gundy and Co. put him in his place.

		Pac-2 Merger With Mountain West In Jeopardy?
		
		Both teams, but especially Beavis, are operating under the "Titanic mentality." They really do believe that the conference (in name only) is simply too big to sink. As time passes this ship will only continue to take on more water. All the while, the presidents and athletic directors exude confidence to the fanbase that they'll soon be reforming the Pac-12 or joining their former brethren in a power conference They'll only be convinced of the truth after time has run out in 2026; after having exhausted all the funds that they stole, are told a resounding NO by the MWC and other mid-major conferences. A new schedule of Big Sky and NAIA opponents is then revealed as the killing blow.

		Pac-2 Merger With Mountain West In Jeopardy?
		
		The Beavs and the Cougs may have a war-chest of money at their disposal; but to spend on what if nobody wants them? Could their public desire to join a flagging ACC or an expanded Big 12 have given doubt to the presidents of their borrowed conference about their commitment? Or do they just plain have no meaningful value?

		Dillon Gabriel: "Lost a Bit of Zip on His Throws"  ???
		
		Hilarious anti-Gabriel propaganda. I watched the OU-Texas game last year. The guy could not miss. He was putting balls wherever he wanted on the field. This was all post-injury 🤣. In the Spring Game, if the broadcast would have blurred out DG and only showed the ball leaving his hands you would've swore it was Bo Nix out there. I'm not worried about his production one bit.

		CBS Ranks the B1G Post-Spring
		
		USuCk on paper should be a much more well rounded team than last season; even losing Caleb Williams. They will probably have a serviceable defense. If this was the PAC I might give them and Oregon the highest odds to win. However, this is the B1G. SC has an absolute meat grinder of a schedule this season. I give myself better odds at winning Powerball than I do USC to win the conference. Oregon has built itself into a physical, yet skilled team, in order to play in a physical conference. USC has simply tried to make itself more closely resemble its successful teams of old. FYI USC...those teams still played in the PAC! The B1G is going to gnaw the meat right off their bones; and without sufficient depth to replace losses to injury, this team will be relegated to another 8-5 season.
