GameThread: UNLV [BuildingTheDam.com Viewing Party]
My afternoon nap went a little bit longer than originally planned... so here we are, a little late with the Game Thread, but hey, at least I didn't sleep through the game, right?
Right. Kickoff is scheduled for 8:00 p.m. on the CBS College Sports Network. Here is where it is available, with some channel numbers: DirecTV (613), Dish Network (152), Cablevision (412), Comcast (412 and 725 in HD), Cox, Insight, Time Warner and Verizon FIOS.
GO BEAVERS!
The thread is yours. And in honor of OSU's trip to Vegas, and how much fun the OSU contingent who has traveled to the game has likely had already... we're calling this thread a party! A viewing party!)
All your game comments here.

I figured... hey, why not.
By the way, for those who are interested in some pre-game reading material:
I was down in Grants Pass last night for my high school’s team’s game. We had about a five hour bus ride down and back.. so we didn’t get home until about 4:00 a.m. Being that I am in charge of breaking down the game film, I didn’t sleep from the time I got off the bus until about 3:00 p.m. this afternoon… and this was after I was essentially up to midnight. Hence the aforementioned nap.
But all that aside. here is the article I filed for AndyPanda’s site, OregonPrepSports.net, if anyone is interested in some HS football talk while we wait for OSU’s kickoff with UNLV.

here's my thoughts about it
This is more like the “true” first game of the year, and we look a bit rusty on the road, they are stacking up on Quizz so we will pick at that for awhile to open up downfield plays, etc.
It looks to me more like the first game of the season where the team is trying to find its legs and rhythm.
-RVM
Lance MItchell has had a good audition to become the next Al Afalava
with a drive stopping interception, and that big hit that led to the score just before the half.
Halftime, and a LOT lower scoring than everyone expected! Shows what us experts know.

Dodged a huge bullet on that one.
Ugly, but we won.
I don't think it was very ugly
Maybe a little in the first half, but I thought that was some great Football being played in the final two quarters.
Hi, my name's Connor and I am addicted to College Football
Agreed..
we moved the ball well in the second half, got a bit scrwed up with the new QB on defense, but a good second half

I agree that the new QB disrupted the D
He (Clausen) played very well. Gotta give him props.
I dunno
I think we got a little too conservative on the playcalling after building up the lead.
That last drive had two great pass plays when we spread the ball around.
That's one thing about Riley
I feel that he gets a little too conservative when we have any type of lead.
Hi, my name's Connor and I am addicted to College Football
But didn't unlease Canfield at all tonight
Until that last drive, a little strange especially with all the throwing on 1st down.
-RVM
I know! I want to see that big arm!
We have so many weapons (Rodgers bros, obviously, but also Adeniji, Mr. Helicopter Catch Bishop, etc etc) that I’d like to see us use them, if only so that the opposing Ds have to work harder.
A little ugly at times, a little well played football at times, and a little dead at times. Should be a good building game.
-RVM
Yup, definitely a good learning experience!
And we came away with a win.
First 2-0 start since 2005 (screen stat)
But have some work to do, but nicely done. I’m hoping and thinking this might be a good bonding game and we didn’t have to wait until going 1-3 or something!

I'm really loving Jordan Bishop right now
how clutch was he on that last drive?
Plus he had that incredible catch where he contorted his body in mid-air.

Actually… It reminded me of Steven Jackson. Bear with me, Jacquizz is obviously not the physical specimen that Steven was.
BUT… He had that look coming out of the fray, reading to go downfield. He didn’t have much in the way of herky jerky material. It was smashmouth speed football, at the end of which Jacquizz would dish out as much punishment is possible with 190 lbs. He had some moves, but it was more changes of direction and stiffarms than jukes and such.
He reminded me of Steven tonight.

yes.... LOVED him finishing off his runs tonight
when I say Jahvid Best game, I mean he had a few no gainers, but he also broke off many long runs to make up for it and really push up his YPC average.
But I do see your point about Jackson
"Put your drawers on, and take your gun off."
And the complete opposite of the Utah game
I said last year that the Zona game made up for the Utah game, but this one really does. I don’t know how I’m going to sleep tonight, I’m so pumped up.

I'm going to be a negative nancy but 2 things have been bothering me....
1) The offensive game plan when we are up by a decent amount.
2) The dependence on the Rodgers brothers. I understand that they are our 1 and 2 guys but its going to be way to predictable against any other opponent…
"And our second unit can probably start in most NBA cities." -Maurice Lucas
I mean both times we have played USC we run run run run run and there is no dynamic to that
"And our second unit can probably start in most NBA cities." -Maurice Lucas
Valid points
The handling of the fourth quarter before the last drive reminded me of Utah, where the road win (against a team that went 13-0) was given away.
Have to hope this gets some tweaking.
Andy Wooldridge
Go Beavs!
Yeah Utah and countless other times we usually come up with the win but it could be managed a lot better imo
"And our second unit can probably start in most NBA cities." -Maurice Lucas
My thoughts exactly.
We’ll be better when we meet Cincy. (Thinking happy, positive thoughts!)
Especially because it's at home
I think the crowd will be a HUGE factor in that game.
Hi, my name's Connor and I am addicted to College Football
Not arguing that there is work to be done and the need to open it up a bit more
But yes the Rodgers brothers will be the to go to guys. Why not? They have proven themselves as the ones to go to and are two of the main leaders of this team. BUT that said I also really think we have young and inexperienced talent outside them and this talent will come around, but right now we aren’t there yet so who else are we going to go to.
I don’t totally understand the criticism about the USC game since it seems to work very well in the running dynamic. I think the Utah example is more indicative of getting stuck in a pattern, but I think that game was more of surprise and the team thought they won it with that great TD drive we had.
-RVM
2 weeks in
and we’re starting to see players put it together. Bishop was huge, Adoniji is picking it up, several guys on defense getting to game speed. They need a good week of practice in the coming days to prep for Cincy.
I agree on the Rodgers brothers being the go-to guys
And they completely, 100% should be. But when every play call seems like a roll of a die with three sides marked Quiz and three sides marked James… a solid D is going to stuff that up.
I said it earlier, but I’d love to see Canfield develop a rapport with a third option, kinda like Moevao/Morales.
yeah he did a great job but he had his eyes off the ball when it was passed to him a few times
Morales should mentor the fella
"And our second unit can probably start in most NBA cities." -Maurice Lucas
oh, again I do agree
But I think it is okay to rely on them A LOT early since they know the score and how to play, and I hope this will give the space for others to develop and step up very soon.
-RVM
I also agree about Canfield
Need to tap into him more, for becoming a passing danger will open it up for Quizz and James a lot and could be deadly.
Offensive line was a bit hit and miss tonight, but looked very good at times I think they will come together too.
-RVM
great day for the Pac-10
UCLA wins at Tennessee… USC wins at Ohio State… Oregon beats Purdue… Oregon State beats UNLV… Washington wins, finally…
only losses were Stanford blowing a 17-3 lead and Washington State.

"And our second unit can probably start in most NBA cities." -Maurice Lucas

Was hoping Purdue would pull out the W just like the SI cover boys did to them last year, but still Purdue took it to the Ducks at home a bit so can feel sort-of okay about it.

"And our second unit can probably start in most NBA cities." -Maurice Lucas

Coach Riley says
“A really hard game. You could feel it right off the bat. We finally got something going, but they never let us take control. And I give them credit, they made some great plays.”
“UNLV coach MIke Sanford made a really great choice to fight the wind in the third quarter. It almost worked.”
“Jordan (Bishop) was big time.”
“I was really, really proud of Justin (Kahut), that was a major league kick, with the wind, and the pressure.”
“We know we can play better football, but we also know we have a bunch of fighters on this team.”

what's the big games next weekend?
I gotta imagine OSU-Cincy will rank near the top considering both (hopefully) will be top 25 teams
"Put your drawers on, and take your gun off."
Nebraska @ Virginia Tech
Other than that I don’t see any big games. Possible GameDay visit?
Hi, my name's Connor and I am addicted to College Football
haha I wish
they will probably go to a game that is on one of their networks
"Put your drawers on, and take your gun off."
Tennessee at Florida
although that matchup lost some of its luster with UCLA’s win today
"Put your drawers on, and take your gun off."
One thing I was really impressed with...
was that we didn’t just roll over and die. Offense made things happen when it really counted.
What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas
Let’s hope the missed kicks, the penalties, and the play calling at times stays.
But I don’t think we will leave Quizz, James, Jordan, Justin, Keaton, and Lance behind though.
While messy, this should have been a good recruiting message to the locals though. Prospects want to play for teams that win big, exciting games, not ones that lose them.
Andy Wooldridge
Go Beavs!
one thing I wanted to see
is OSU air it out a bit. I didn’t really see any deep passes even attempted in this game. Can’t just rely on runs and dumping it off every time, can you?
"Put your drawers on, and take your gun off."
double up, but i dont know if that is the only reason
"And our second unit can probably start in most NBA cities." -Maurice Lucas
maybe once Catchings comes back
we will see some more throws down the field
"Put your drawers on, and take your gun off."
Can you see it?
Adeniji, Bishop, and Catchings?
Mind those ABCs!
mm that's true
wasnt really thinking about that during the game lol
"Put your drawers on, and take your gun off."
Just kind-of 50/50 on this win
Half of me didn’t like at all what I saw at times and worried that some of the sloppiness will carry over next week against a high-powered offense.
Half of me is proud of the team not giving up and some of the play that happened by people like Quizz and Bishop.
This game will be interesting to look back on and did the team build on it towards a great season, or did it become one of the types we never really went beyond? My guess is the former and the team will learn a lot from it, but we’ll see I guess.

Hi, my name's Connor and I am addicted to College Football
Mike Parker admits to the call being "A little over the top"
I agree with Jim Wilson, though, it conveyed all the emotion of the game, in which the Beavers avenged their loss the only other time they took on the Rebels in Las Vegas.
Andy Wooldridge
Go Beavs!
Can't describe it; you had to hear it
I envision Mike almost collapsing, by the sound of his voice. What a sense of relief, after the initial excitement.
You rarely see the emotion and excitement of tonight’s Beavers, Trojans, Ducks, games in the NFL.
Andy Wooldridge
Go Beavs!
oh, I was listening to it
Just seemed about how he does it, but thinking back he did seem really sure that kick was NOT going through and the other one (was that Jim?) was come on this is not that big of a deal it’s going in.
NFL? Do we ever? Okay, I guess once in awhile yes (Giants beating the Pats was a pretty big deal), but I totally agree. But kind-of funny in how each of the teams you listed have a lot to work on from their wins!
-RVM
I'm thinking Beaver Nation, Trojan Nation, Duck Nation, (and Bruin Nation)
won’t trade the pressure and the problems, as by the end of the season, never mind down the road, these kind of wins are the things everyone takes pride in. The mistakes will be forgotten, and hopefully fixed. The comeback wins will never be forgotten.
Andy Wooldridge
Go Beavs!
Another piece of unfinished business
Utah wins over SJ St. 24-14, scoring 17 points in the fourth quarter. The Utes come to Eugene 2-0, and will be ranked.
That game and the Beavers’ game will be a couple of the bigger games in the country next week, both right here in the Willamette Valley.
Leave early, and expect a mega mess on the freeway!
