I suspect Kentucky got caught looking ahead to this game when USC blew them out last weekend. They played hard against UGA.

I didn’t recall seeing a winner from last week. I know it wasn’t me, but I must have missed it.

Cougs will be feasting on apples unless the “Coug” it.

This needs to be an annual occurrence. I’m talking about the 35 point win.

I wanted to see a no TD performance with turnovers that lead to scores. I didn’t see it. OSU’s lack of talent and depth helped the Ducks defense immensely. I do like the fact that they finished with a dominant 2nd half, though. I do hope that they’re trending upward. They will need perfection against Ohio State.

Wazzu up on uw.

Well, the biggest thing I wanted to see was a dominant performance by the Ducks defense. That’s not going to happen.

Swinson stripped Ashford. Some ex-Duck on ex-Duck crime going on.

These refs love them som LSU Tigers.

They moved the game to Eugene? This should anger the Beavis fans even more.

LSU got lucky with only having to deal with Robbie Ashford. They should win this easily.

LaNorris needs to lose the contact lenses and put the glasses back on.

It looks like TVD went down with a knee injury trying to scramble for a first down vs. Bama. I feel bad for the guy.

I’m glad Gameday is at USC East. It’s my second favorite venue that I’ve visited. Go Cocks!

The SF and SD markets can’t even get enough eyeballs in their stadiums to fill out a Mr. Potato Head. Their TV markets are NFL-centric. Vegas and Denver only care about the NFL and Portland only cares about the Ducks and NFL.

One thing the great programs do is build on past success. Bama and UGA typically reloaded their talent base through recruiting and they had leaders ready to step up. They have plugged a few holes with transfers, but they didn’t try to rebuild with them. I think DL will start recruiting fewer transfers once he has built a solid foundation through recruiting. I also hope this is the last year the Ducks sign a transfer QB as a one year fix. I’m confident they can find a great QB within their current roster (and Akili Jr.).

I thought for sure I was going to see a Canzano article. I actually wonder which came first. The MWC's decision not to discontinue its scheduling agreement with WSU/OSU or the Pac 2's decision to poach four MWC schools. The MWC decision was announced a couple of days before the Pac 2 announcement, but their commissioner, Gloria Nevarez, may have had advance notice. It's hard to say. OSU, WSU considering options for conference merger after no scheduling agreement with MWC WWW.SPORTSBUSINESSJOURNAL.COM Though Oregon State and Washington State could still reach a scheduling agreement with the Mountain West Conference, MWC Commissioner Gloria Nevarez does not sound optimistic about...

OSU 21-17 1 TO 1 Sack 267 Yards Passing Beavis has only lost one CW at home since 2014. Until DL wins in Corvallis I have to take the home team.

I want to see this defense actually dominate the way they were advertised. I'm talking zero TD's and setting up a score or two with turnovers.

I have to admit that I’m pretty square for a guy who was born and raised in Oregon. That said, I would rather see training room medicine cabinets filled with gummies for pain management rather than opioids. I can’t say that I’m in favor of smoking the hippie lettuce as it can still lead to lung cancer and heart disease. However, I recall a certain legend from Robert E. Lee High School who excelled on the gridiron and at the Moon Tower.

The last time Oregon wore this color combo in Corvallis. It didn’t end up so good.

Great article. Lots of similarities between the two teams. Even dropping the ball before crossing the goal line. I remember Byron Marshall did it against SDSU in the opener and then almost did it again in the NC game. The one against SDSU was ruled a touchback while the TD against Ohio State was upheld.

Your screen name wouldn’t happen to be Leeroy Jenkins would it?

Plain uniforms = moderate results. The Mario era was more exciting than this. Let’s get weird and start crushing opponents again.

Like Jimmy Johnson used to say “You treat all players the same until you don’t”. What he meant was high performers (I.e. star players) were treated better. There was a game the Cowboys lost in Washington where everyone played horribly. Jimmy got a few Heineken’s deep on the flight home and went to the back of the plane and openly ripped anyone who looked to be having a pleasant time. He also told the flight attendant not to feed them. He walked right past Aikman, Smith and Irvin (who also had bad games) and lit into everybody else. Back home in Dallas, Aikman confronted him about why he didn’t yell at the star players and Jimmy alluded to the fact that his words would have no effect on guys like him, Emmitt, Irvin, etc. because they were harder on themselves than any coach could ever be. Long story short, great coaches know which buttons to push and whose buttons to push. What works for one guy might not work for the next. A great example is Tua in Miami. Flores used to ride him hard before he was fired and Tua played poorly. Along comes McDaniel who treats Tua like a pro and he takes the Dolphins to the playoffs and has a great season.
