Beavers Ty down dawgs and kick them for good measure: Oregon State 34, Washington 13

We get ASU coming off a bye and Cal the week after they play SC. UO is at Reser…

We have a chance.

the Beavers are beating the teams they are supposed to beat. The game was not even that close, there are things to work on but a good solid road win in a place that used to be a temple of doom for the Beavers.

A good win for the Beavs, especially on the road, and a nice way to go into the bye week before getting ready for Ariz St.
Positives: The offense was in a great rhythm tonight. Lyle Moevao was about as efficient as a quarteback can be (except for Colt McCoy apparently) and we had several huge plays from James. I think James kind of reminded us tonight why everyone was so excited about him after the end of last year and why we shouldnt let Quizz overshadow him. The defense did a GREAT job of getting pressure on the quarterback. I give their guy credit cause he kept hanging in there but you know he will fill it tomorrow.
Negatives: Not much to complain about on the offensive side of the ball except for a quite a few penalties it seemed like. Also, I think they need to look at going down the field a little bit more and also using RYAN MCCANTS!!! In the couple of plays he came in for Quizz he looked very impressive. He is a great change of pace back to give the defense. The defense got beat several times in the secondary which concerns me against teams like Ariz St and Ariz who can both really throw the ball.
Overall though this was a great win for the Beavs and as the games keep passing and the wins keep coming, the possiblity for a Rose Bowl becomes that much more realisitic. GO BEAVS!!

James that is!

Good win, kind-of a boring one at times I’ll admit, but hell boring in a good way in being a in control win so I’ll take it!

Yes, how about McCants and especially that goal line dive into the endzone, wait a minute that was to get out of the endzone!

Yep on the coverage, but at the same time I don’t think it was that terrible. A good amount of those long throws were just crazy! Throw it a mile high and have the receiver make the play. But heck I guess we needed something to work on during the bye week!?!

I think I was mostly bummed that Quizz didn’t get a couple more shots at 100 yards, but the damned defense had to hold UW on the one!

Onwards, and some interesting games coming up (especially if this UA vs. Cal score holds up, 35-27 UA right now).

Anybody else notice how mouthy Sammie has gotten this year? He looks like he’s talking a lot of shit out there.

Loved the play call last night, fake to Quizz up the middle then toss to James around the end. The Rodger brothers are turning into a great one two punch.

One of his best games so far. Very controlled and efficient. My only complaint is that he throws to our receivers feet a lot. Sammie was visibly upset and yelling at Lyle when he had to go to the ground to catch the ball instead of hitting him in stride and letting him get the first down.

When Lyle throws across the middle, usually it is pretty low and doesn’t give our recievers any chance to get any yards after the catch. But i guess better low than too high. Lyle is still improving as a QB and im sure he’ll continue to develop.

Maybe a couple carries every drive to give Quizz a break. He looked like a decent HB last night and gave some punishing blows to the Huskies defense

…………………….. they gave up some big plays on underthrown balls that should have been batted or picked.

The 3 picks are deceptive, only 1 was in any sense crucial.
