I'll be watching the game in Eugene...

Does anyone here know of a good bar to watch Beaver games here in this sea of green and neon yellow? My only stipulation is that they have nice TVs and they play the sound of the game, not the jukebox. Let me know if you guys have any places in mind! Thanks, GO BEAVS!

I’m rather excited.

Drinking heavily with friends. Be prepared for some drunken ramblings this evening.

The drinking starts in T-Minus

3 hours. A whole lot of my friends are down in Palo Alto for the game, so the Beavs will be well represented with students. Can’t believe its here. GO BEAVS!

My prediction is 24-13 Beavers. Sammie, J. Rodgers, and McCants each score a touchdown w/Kahut adding a field goal.

Are there any bars in the wilsonville/beaver/portland area that hosts a good beaver football watch party?

did some searches and found Captain Ron’s Sports pub in sherwood. It’s pretty close to me (i live in wilsonville).. anybody else been there? as long as they have large tv’s, good beaver atmosphere and play the game audio over the loudspeakers, I’m fine.

In Beaverton (Scholls & Hall) is a good bar for almost any sporting event. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s packed tonight, although they sometimes have karaoke that interferes with the game.

And let’s not talk about uniform combos too much. A little bit is okay, but…then it starts to get a little bit “eugene-like” not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Both of them should be tough.

Quizz probably has lots of nerves right now. He’ll have even more in Beaver Stadium. If our O-Line can block down field, our backs should be really good.

If I was Stanford I would keep on running it thought
The Beavers just have too stretch the field.

We're running the fly sweep at a much higher frequency

than we did last year. Probably has to do with the fact that we don’t have Yvenson anymore.

stanford can't tackle anymore...

this game’s going to get ugly fast

by spakajewia on Aug 28, 2008 8:13 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

kind of a failure to come away with only a FG, don't you think?

But giving the D rest is always good, unless you’re playing high school football and it doesn’t matter.

OSU has no answer

I don't know, Mello Yello is pretty awful. What's the worst that could happen?

Never heard of this kid before

But he is a beast. Rivals has him a 3*, 6’1 230 with a 4.48 40 yd dash. In this instance, Rivals is legit.

Dude, appreciate you coming to BtD and all...

but, this is a Beaver blog, and we don’t really want to hear you brag about your players. If you want to add a constructive comment about the game, fine, but keep bragging like this to yourself.

Yeah,

I’m not sure if Mike’s still awake, and I’m no speaker for any of the guys at BSD, but on behalf of all the Penn State homers you guys have tolerated tonight, thanks for the hospitality here.

Sorry guys.

Penn State grad but Oregon State’s my dad’s alma mater. He’s going to be crushed that Palo Alto is doing this.

Cal fan here.

Wasn’t really sure who to root for tonight, because obviously Stanfurd sucks, but I think the Beavs are a much more credible Pac-Ten threat. But wow. I was not expecting a result like this. Wow.

Go Bears!

and I say again.......

That pass call was not good…….shoulda ran it, make OSU burn a TO or burn some clock….

and we have a game. they waited until now to make it look easy.

I don't think we're making it look easy...

We’re down a TD and a 2 pt conversion. Not sure if the D has a 3 and out in them the way Stanford has been running the ball

Can’t believe we went deep. We’re going to have to stop them no matter what, right?

clock rules are playing an interesting role

stanford can run it down to two minutes on the first play by being lazy here.

OSU has 1 or 2 TO left?
