The tournament will begin tomorrow. Brace yourselves...

For now, speculation and predictions sounds like a good idea. Where do you think the upsets will occur? What moment is going to take it all? I'll post my ideas in the comment thread. Join me there.

GO BEAVERS!

My thoughts...

Potential Upsets:

I think that any of these matchups could result in an upset except for 1 vs. 8. The Civil War win should handle the Gymnasts easy, although we’ve got to give credit to what the Gymastics program accomplished. I think the Craig Robinson Hiring (6) could take the Ortiz Grand Slam (3). And maybe the UW game over the Emerald Bowl. But I’m not so sure about that one. I think the Jay John Firing could be the Cinderella of this tournament. Were people more antsy to get him out than they were excited after the Beavers beat Cal? We shall see.

Projected winner:

The Civil War. That was just awesome. But I’m interested to see what happens in the rest of the tourny. Who knows, the Civil War may get upset.

Quick added thoughts

I like the Ortiz Grand slam to go far maybe even top the Cal game (!). Not sure I agree about the UW game but that’s just me. It was a wild and wacky game for sure but not quite a defining moment for Beaver sports this year IMO. Yep about Jay John and how that could be an interesting to follow to see how Beaver Nation felt about that whole deal. I will also have to say too bad that gymnastics got put up against the Civil War football game and yes credit is due there for sure.

Winner: Civil War it was a big single game, big in the history of the series.
