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!

offensive line

this is still without our two best lineman Tavita Thompson and Jeremy Perry. I thought they were to play tonight

by HustlinOwl on Sep 25, 2008 6:58 PM PDT   0 recs

Outstanding

This is great. That block Stroughter put on Ellison rocked. And Quizz has 100 or just a yard shy. Beautiful.

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

by HustlinOwl on Sep 25, 2008 7:02 PM PDT   0 recs

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.

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.

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.

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.

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?

Good luck guys. I was really impressed with your fans when you played here. Great people; travel really well, even across the country.

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.

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.

Field position game

get the D out there and make 1 or 2 more stops.

by Cairo on Sep 25, 2008 8:47 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

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!
