Oh Erin...
I could listen to her talk sports all night long… even if it was all about the SEC…
Hope she busts out the orange tonight.

Looks like the orange out was a success.
I like the yellow helmets!

Quizz
He is a beast and killing this USC defense
haahahaahah
3rd and 11 pick up, no pressure on QB!
Go Big Red Nebraska!

the offensive line
is OWNING USC’s defensive line.
This is amazing to watch.

offensive line
this is still without our two best lineman Tavita Thompson and Jeremy Perry. I thought they were to play tonight
Outstanding
This is great. That block Stroughter put on Ellison rocked. And Quizz has 100 or just a yard shy. Beautiful.
DAMN BOYS
That’s what I’m talking about.
Nice going.
Well...
…so far, but you guys are looking damn good right now.
Defense
The D is playing as dominant as they were at the end of last year
Fumble
Thats a fumble quit being so quick on the whistle both NCAA and NFL
i don't think so
we’re really quick to rule things a catch because of the NFL influence, but that’s not a catch in college.

the
manhandling of USC’s defense is just beautiful so far.
nice job on that pass of the OSU kid staying in bounds.
run that clock, keep the ball.

Beautiful
middle screen, perfect call, beautiful blocking and that ain’t easy to do.

i think
for the safety of the player you had to do something there.
not sure what the rule is…. or if there is one, but you don’t want him going down the field and taking a hit that seriously injures him.

did they call

they had to call something.

it didn't look like they called anything...
They called it dead cause the ball carrier’s helmet came off…
Never seen that happen before.

Hell of a first half for the Beavers
Your team is absolutely beating the shit out of SC. Very impressive, he typed with clenched teeth.
Seriously...
Props to OSU on this….after the first few games…how the hell did they pull this one out.

USC Adjustments
You know that Carroll will be making some adjustments. Riley just has to keep the Beavers focused and not get to far ahead of themselves.
This game
is the best game ive seen all year. Where was THIS rogers against psu? I am glad he didnt show up two weeks ago….he is absolutely on fire. GO BEAVERS!!!
Well done beavers......you are beating the leaving crap out of USC...
The Pac-10 just got that much crazier
Great Job
I am glad to see the beavers doing this. I wish this team would have showed up 2 weeks ago against PSU would have made it a great game.
Just Say NO!!!
to this Dr Lou crap.

Penn Stater here, pulling for you Beavs!
Waht a half of football… Wow. OSU is playing like they have nothing to lose, and they have completely out-played USC in every dimension of the game.
Another year with the media singing USC’s praises too early?? When will they learn their lesson that USC craps the bed at least one conference game per season?
Go Beavers!
Penn State
Oregon State was simply out of their league playing in Beaver Stadium, as they said before the game the team was in complete aww of the whole Penn State scene
Happy Valley
It’s a pretty intimidating environment, for sure…
Go get em Beavers!!
I was at the PSU vs OSU game this year… your fans were great… good luck in the second half!

I’m sitting in State college next to a window and every time OSU scores, you can hear the cheers echoing outside.
Good luck guys. I was really impressed with your fans when you played here. Great people; travel really well, even across the country.

I could tell there was some potential with rodgers when you guys came to happy valley…..but tonight he is looking like noel devine high school youtube highlights

Wow
The Beavers are like Adam LaRoche in April.

Sanchez...
Mark Sanchez is SO immobile… and he may have re-aggravated that knee…

have to get back on this possession and establish the run again.

wtf
was the guard looking at, though.
he was too slow in turning his head…..
no, went back and looked, he was too slow around the corner, no chance.

Come on OSU, buck up and hold on
I don't know, Mello Yello is pretty awful. What's the worst that could happen?
not that,

Oregon State 21, U.S.C. 14
Ordinarily, being up by a touchdown late in the third quarter of a night game at home is a good feeling.
This ain’t ordinarily.
I’m still pulling for y’all, but I’d be lying if I said I thought there was a chance in the world of the Beavers getting the win.
It was fun while it lasted, though.
Go 'Dawgs!
I hope you're right
We shall see.
The decision to punt on fourth and one at midfield did not appear to me to be a decision by a coach who was trying to win a football game, however.
Go 'Dawgs!
Granted, it looks like it's working out so far . . .
. . . but, then, the L.S.U. pass against Auburn last year worked, too.
That didn’t make it the right call.
What do I know, though? Suddenly, it looks like I was wrong all over the place . . . which, don’t get me wrong, I hope I am!
To reiterate . . . go Beavers!
Go 'Dawgs!
Big couple of first downs there...OSU needed to give the d a break

holy hell backup kicker
The Ralphie Report - Shoulder to Shoulder...All Colorado Buffaloes on SBNation - http://www.ralphiereport.com/
that was horrible playcalling. Riley should have known that was 4 down territory and ran on third down. Pass and then put your
backup kicker in there??? Bad bad bad

Totally with you
The running game’s been working. That’s two bad calls on fourth and short.

worst thing that happens is you take another minute or two off the clock..bad

By the way, Irish, I'm curious . . .
. . . why are you rooting for the Beavers?
I mean, my team’s ranked No. 3, so it’s in my interest (provided we win on Saturday, of course, which is a big "if") to see the No. 1 team go down.
What’s your motivation here?
That’s not a challenge, it’s just a question.
Go 'Dawgs!
Better than rooting for USC...

Except that OSU just showed the template for win
Jacquizz Rodgers just pointed it out – wait for the SC defense to commit and then run around them or through the one gap.
Yeah, but the old blueprint was using mobile quarterbacks and a spread offense and the Trojans eventually figure it out.
Too much season to be played to declare USC’s time at the top over.

They absolutely played their asses off, the blocking was fantastic, the running was fantastic. Well done to the Beavs.

I'm definitely a fan of

Good for Coach Riley, too.
Congrats Beavs.
Was at the game
50 yard line. Best game of my life. Great night to call myself a beaver.
At least we don't have Zito's contract.
You Are What You Believe Yourself To Be!
Something I try to live by.
These young men believed that they were champions tonight and they are what they believed themselves to be. Not only did they win, they did so with character, which is the goal of any worthwhile athletic program. Know that more than one Bruin was with you as we all watched what transpired.
You are champions tonight Beavers and you are champions for all time.
Congratulations.
Tremendous game, tremendous performance by your Beavers and, most importantly, abso-frickin’-lutely tremendous performance by Quiz Rodgers.
Oh. My. God.
Dayum.
Good luck the rest of the year, you just provided the first rather large ka-dunk to the season, one of many, hopefully. I love the major upset.
However, if you were to be introduced to football tonight, it was pretty clear who you would have assumed to be the better team; Oregon State. In all honesty, you guys deserved to win.
Well done.
And seriously, Quiz is a beast.
Wow.
Thanks Beavers
You have earned a lot of respect. A lot of PSU doubters were calling you a “cupcake” on our schedule. Glad to see you prove them wrong.
