"Trojans Can’t Pass the Quizz": Oregon State 27, #1 USC 21

(props to GustyJ on the headline)

Jacquizz freaking Rodgers.

There's so many things that could be said right now...

Honestly, never in my wildest dreams did I think a freshman could make the USC defense look silly. The man is just incredible. He finds the end zone. And if you unsnap his helmet, he'll still try to get in.

From the beginning, things went our way. The opening kickoff was fantastic. We forced them to go three and out. Twice. On their first two possessions!

There's so much to say right now that I don't even know what to say. My voice is absolutely gone-- the atmosphere at Reser was fantastic. Thank goodness I can still type. 

All your post-game chatter can go here. Thanks to everyone who participated in the comment thread. I'm glad we gave ya'll a show. 

Is it fair to say that everyone in the nation has met Quizz? What a national debut for him. 

Mrs. Rodgers, we can't thank you enough. You've produced some great young men.

Have a good night, everyone. More in the morning.

GO BEAVERS!

The score

Nice win! It wasn’t even as close as the final score shows. The Beavs were in control the entire game. The Rogers brothers are going to terrorize the PAC 10. Who says an orange-out won’t work???

I like the yellow helmets!

thoughts...

…Should’ve blown off work to get down there instead of giving my ticket to my father-in-law. That 4 PM, Thursday meeting will forever haunt me.

…Quizz. Oh. My. God. I’ll hold off on declaring him my next favorite human being in the world but this kid is looking more and more legitimate each week. We could have something really special.

…James Rodgers and Sammie. Great, great games. Didn’t blow up the stat sheet exactly but they didn’t need to. They did the little things needed to lock this up. Stroughter’s block on Keith Ellison’s little brother was SWEET.

…Rey Malaluga (sp?). Hope that guy is OK.

…Horse Collar Tackles. Going to see a lot of those until the Rodgers boys graduate. Too fast, too strong, too elusive. Thank the NCAA gods for this rule.

…O-Line. Hi, have we met before? Great game.

Great day! GO BEAVERS!

Yep!

I want to say that this was a VERY impressive win. In 2006 it was incredible but still it was a bit more of some incredible bursts of greatness thrown in with holding on for dear life at the end. But this game was SOLID all the way through. Sure USC made the adjustments and got those 14 points to pull within a TD, but wow I am in awe of the defense and whatever adjustments they made after that. No panic, no roll over, and to see Sanchez on the sidelines go from buddlefuddlement to joy and cockiness to oh my damn we are going to lose sums it up.

And I have nothing to add about Quizz (how about them Rodgers brothers and accounting for all the TDs?!?, we are very very very lucky to be able to watch these two the next three to four years). But I will add to the above comment about the O-Line and as much as Quizz was impressive so were they. You don’t see it all on TV of course but you see a lot and the line was impressive as hell.

Great, Great game, and I think this will serve the Beavs well the rest of the season. Good to have you all back Beavers!

Oh, and yes abut Maualuga, he showed a lot of pride and heart and that was an unlucky as hell play to get hurt on by being rolled up from behind in a pile. Wish him well.
