Probably a lot of Bean Dip being sold this weekend....  Dairy Farmers are predicting that 20 million pounds of cheese will be consumed on Super-Sunday...and the cheeseheads are not even in the game!

Oregon State is already at work.

Usually good for a program to 'grease the skids', so to speak.

Of course, handle the grease wrong, and it might speed up the skid...

Oregon State received a $50 Million donation to spur the renovation of Reser Stadium.

Great news. Hopefully, they will be able to fill it.

$50 million buys a lot of lipstick.

The problem with trying to be “competitive” with other Universities, and the upgrades made to athletic facilities, is that $50 million isn’t that much. Didn’t we just spend $12m on a new video board and sound system?

Kind of a crazy amount of $$$ to spend to be able to watch TV a few weekends per year....lol

I think the $50 million is part of a $150 million project to renovate the rest of Potato Salad Stadium. They only did half last time, so it looks pretty bad. $100 million private donations and $50 million public funds. Can you imagine the outcry from UOMatters and everyone else if Oregon spent $50 million of general budget money in this climate on a capital project for sports?
