I’ll never forget when Joe Avezzano lost to Idaho in 84, pretty much sealed his fate. But it did pave the way for the great Craig Kragthorpe “wide open attack” era. We all called it the “your fly’s open attack.”
Idaho HC says our offense is even better than Indiana’s. Then again, this is the same guy that said “they have a really good kick returner,” so take it for what it’s worth.
BREAKING — Andrew Chatfield, Florida Gators edge-rusher and former bluechip prospect, spotted on Oregon State Beavers visit. He entered transfer portal in August. NB said some stuff about this guy not too long ago.
NB – numb nuts Nemec reporting Chatterfield, the edge from Florida is visiting this weekend. Any insights? Does he have 2 years of eligibility? Would he play next year?
I dont know for sure if he’s a grad transfer. If he is, he could potentially enroll for fall term and be playing for us this season, which is part of what makes OSU’s school calendar attractive.
Something worth following up on.
Btw, he is not the current Andrew Chatfield in the student directory. We happen to have a student with the same name already.
We Beaver fans have the worst luck trying to watch our sports. Half of you guys don’t get it where you are and my bar’s cable went out. Pretty frustrating.
Sucks man. Fenwick just busted a nice run. Broke a tackle with a spin move. Followed up with a great out route and throw for Bradford, timing perfect, right in the hands. Followed up with Fenwick just bashing through for 8 yards. Oline is nasty
Could’ve at least come away with a fg there. Wasted a turnover and good field position. Not so much an impact on this game but they need to capitalize on those situations to win once conference starts.
It was third and a mile leaves only time for a Hail Mary, not bad clock management when up 28-0. Calling the time out earlier potentially leaves time for Idaho if they stop us on third down.
Classy to get Noyer in garbage time in front of family. Don’t mind this. Should get Vidlak some reps, too, so he doesn’t transfer. Might be a while before he plays given Nolan’s breakout.
forgot they played early today. On vacation in Hawaii and tuned in to follow the game just as noyer gets picked. Vidlak should be getting that shot, Noyer already had his chance. Especially against these scrubs.
We look like a real D1 team for the first time since 2006. I know the last two opponents helped, but even still, taking that out we have more dynamic, fast, physical players and better fundamentals. We beat Purdue if Nolan starts, too, so there’s that. Special year brewing.
Might just have bad protection or not know the play book. Shannon and Mikey have been on the team as scout team warriors for years. I don’t mind them getting a reward
Ya I think its more of the scout team guys getting looks after being tackling dummies for years. Not to mention that he probably needs to add some weight.
Regarding Chatfield visiting. Makes me wonder if the timing of Ta’ron Madison transferring out isn’t related? Thought we were maxed out on scholarships up until Madison left.
Well it doesn’t help when you’re getting blindsided and the backups block poorly. There were reports in camp when the starting Oline wasn’t in they really struggled in protection and with penalties. Those reports look to be true. Moran and Miller definitely aren’t D1 size yet.
Could have been purposeful. Such as the double fake TQ TD. Now they have to prepare for both fakes and the same play. That’s a good bit of practice time for one play.
I think Lindgren is clever enough to not do that. If anything he probably called things just to make USC prep for it and doesn’t even plan on running them on them. Quite different defensive philosophies.
Good dominant performance today. Nice to see the Beavs live up to expectations for a change. Offense looked really good. Defense was helped by some mistakes, no Field Goal tries, and a lot of 4th down attempts by Idaho, but they stopped them when they really needed to.
How ’bout this: Kyrei Fisher led Oregon State with seven tackles,
and this: B.J. Baylor rushed for 68 yards and two touchdowns, making him the first Beaver with three-consecutive multi-touchdown games since Storm Woods in 2012.
Went to the game. First one in over a decade. Not a lot of fans, but to be expected with the weather, although it was better than expected.
Idaho clearly was over matched, but it was very nice to see a shutout.
Nolan only had one bad pass that I recall.
Defense had issues with the RPO stuff they were seeing, but talent won out.
Would have like to have seen a few BIG TD plays, but over all can’t complain!
Nice to see Stony Brook drive 80 yards for a TD against The Quacks. They are in Quack territory again but down 17-7. I think Oregon and Ohio St are both overrated, but tell that to the orgasmic Portland media.
I think it might have been 1978 against the other rodent. 17-14 over Minnesota. They beat BYU on the road in ’86 which was a nice road win and before Power 5, Group of 5 designations.
Just flipped to the Stanford game. Why do they let Stanford get away with obvious offensive PI? The guy literally holds the defender away from him with an extended arm in the guys chest. They’ve made a living out of it because for some reason they choose not to call them for it.
Damn, maybe Colorado should have been kinder to Noyer? They had 68 yards of total offense for the entire game. Of course, Luck O’ The Beavs that the Buffs aren’t on the schedule this season.
I’m going to guess when the odds come out, USC will be favored by 10-14 points due to USC road win and the historic losing streak of the beavs in la. I would bet on the beavs though.
W/3 variable opponents, Beavs averaging 36 points scored to 19 points allowed. Doesn’t tell the whole story, but indicates progress. Was nice to see them do today what they should have.
Good game by Beavs and staff today. I am more confident in Nolan than I thought possible, and he has convinced me that he can be an all conference qb and lead Beavs offense to highly efficient productivity which will translate to a very balanced attack that few other teams have in the conference…
I think all road games are actually more winnable now than in any recent years. CIvil War will be a showdown for the North title unless the Ducks falter and lose a couple of games before Beavs get to them…
Looking ahead:
@USC -very winnable, SLovis may be out and back-up is relying on Drake for every pass attempt, emotional response to Helton firing is over and they revert to the reality of who they are…no discipline talented team sleepwalking Beavs win close 35-31
UW- beat up on the worst team on their schedule, maybe still reeling from MOntana, Huard probably makes his debut start…Beavs solid win 31-17
@WSU may be ready to implode after having USC on the ropes, Rolo may be gone by this game…Beavs win in a rout on the Palouse 45-21
Utah lost again, and pulled Brewer…QB controversy and WItt is having familiar problems on offense, Beavs offense rolls 35-24
@Cal gets a solid win and may turn their season around but will continue to be limited on both sides of the ball…Beavs win close 28-24
Colorado- Buffs can’t move the ball on offense…Beavs roll in a blowout 38-10
Stanford -may have a qb now, but can’t stop a blanced offense…Beavs win in the cold 28-17
ASU -good talent but may be out of the race by here and lack motivation in the cold…Beavs get win 35-31
@Ducks are vulnerable, and beatable, let them read their press clippings for a while, then burst their bubble …Beavs win in methodical beatdown 45-24
I like the optimism and am feeling pretty good as well.
That said, that last 4 game stretch is pretty brutal. Don’t forget @Colorado gives us a big disadvantage with the elevation impact, and they did play TA&M pretty tough. Stanford with a real QB is pretty scary given that they’ve been pretty good with nothing for years now.
Fake future news! I like your positivity though. Beavs have a slog ahead of them whether you believe it or not. There will be no easy games moving forward. The last few weeks have shown we have no idea what kind of team we’re going to be playing. You’re list is optimistic that we’ll play the worst level of those teams, but history says we get there good enough to beat us level teams.
In a year where we might have the best teams we’ve had in a long time, the conference looks as bad as I can ever remember. This looks like some legitimate inverse Luck O’ da Beavs.
Nolan’s legit. My only real gripe now is he needs to be smarter with his runs. Run out of bounds when feasible, slide when not. Stop fighting for extra yards- we need you upright for the long haul. Hopefully if/when we need a backup QB, Gebbia is ready at that point. Noyer should not see the field again, and hopefully we can preserve Vidlak’s redshirt.
Yes good points. My early gut says we’re playing USC at perfect time too. We’ll be confident and should be relatively healthy. 34-31 Beavs. Nolan absolutely has to play well. Turn over battle is key.
Can anyone tell me what’s up with McCartan? Anyone, Buehler, Buehler….
The thought of McCartan, Stover and Sharp all lining up on D, all 6’5 or 6’6″, long and athletic, is a D coordinators wet dream
Has fisher been hurt? He was a solid recruit out of high school. I think originally attended Arkansas. Nice to have backups that are power five talent.
After a opening 0-24 beat down by KState, Stanford now has two quality wins (and decisive wins) in a row. As I said above, if they’ve nailed it at QB, they’ll be scary this year.
What’s wrong with looking into alternatives and therapeutics such as Ivermectin? I’ve read several articles like this from doctors.
Yes the conspiracy shit gets old, but the gist of the argument for viable alternatives stands. https://www.evergreenfamilymedicine.com/post/state-of-covid-august-2021
The article is about the media conspiracy. The only study I have seen on dewormer that recommended was withdrawn after peer review.
There’s tons of research on treatment and alternatives that are actually viable.
Oh and yes I’m sick of these dumb fuckers who have literally been wrong for 2 years at every step. WTNY has been wrong over and over with zero recognition of reality or their own failed opinions. They could stand on a pile of bodies making proclamations to feel good about themselves with a smile.
Ivermectin has been used in several countries with good results (see India) but yet it is being hammered in the USA as not even viable. To question why that is seems to be what a good citizen should do. You can call me what ever you would like, I care not. But the good doctor with 35 years in medicine makes a strong case and if you had cared to read the whole piece you would have seen a link to a aggregate of 63 studies that covers 26000 patients and the results are strong in the favor of using ivermectin. Is it the end all? No, nothing at this point is- including the vaccines. Israel is into they’re third round of shots and the cases and deaths numbers continue to climb. They are one of the most vaccinated countries at 78%. To question why is not being a conspiracy theorist but seems to be something all people should be wondering as well as why not Ivermectin in this country. The (de-wormer) cost a few bucks per pill whereas the go to choice in hospital’s for much of this pandemic has been remdesiver which runs around 3000 a single dose. I believe the term ” normalcy bias” has been used on this site from time to time and sure can be used in this context. These are, unfortunately, surely not normal times.
Just shut up dude. No one here is interested. It’s football season and the only thing your horse shit had done is help blow up delta and make it harder to view a game.
The head of the japanese department of health is also recommedning Ivermectin. People go insane if you pursue any means of treament besides what’s been shoved in their faces. But, America is also grossly over-medicated so it’s all a bit ridiculous.
Fun PFF rating stuff after three weeks:
-Nolan is the #4 rated passer in the country. #2 QB overall in the P12 (behind Garbers, who has a super high ‘running’ rating)
-Bradford slipped down the WR rankings a bit, but is still ranked #2 in the P12 behind Drake London
-Julian is still our top rated defensive player by a wide margin. Surprisingly, our defensive ratings didn’t move very much.
They weight game situation in the ratings, so I find the guys with high ratings from garbage time interesting. They include:
-Taliese Fuaga
-Marco Brewer
-Tommy Spencer
-Makiya Tongue
-Kyrei Fisher
All we need for this offense to function is an efficient QB. Chance only threw for 175 yards yesterday.
We don’t need a QB who throws 350+ a game. Chance certainly has that capability but our strength is the run game. If we rush for 250+ every game, I don’t see how we lose with Nolan.
This is why I pay for PFF during football season!
T
Taliese Fuaga-15 snaps, 86 rating
Tyler Morano- 15 snaps, 51 rating
G
Marco Brewer- 15 snaps, 75 rating
Korbin Sorensen- 15 snaps, 56 rating
C
Tanner Miller-15 snaps, 27.3 rating
Thanks!
Looks like there were 64 offensive snaps, so 15 was pretty good exposure.
I think, and hope, they weren’t the same 15 snaps for that group. Opportunity to build chemistry with the 1’s.
It really seems like OL recruiting is a crapshoot or is that just OSU? Miller was a walk on and Morano was a lowly rated recruit that was very light. Pretty surprising that some of those guys are seeing the field over a handful of others.
From USA Today:
Jonathan Smith of Oregon State is replacing former Southern California coach Clay Helton on the panel of coaches for the AFCA Coaches Poll
And, Fresno State joins the poll at #25
Imagine being Andrew Chatfield, coming from Florida where youre routinely playing in front of stadiums with 80k+ fans, to Corvallis where we maybe had 5k fans yesterday.
Canzano w/an article today on OSU’s virtual new stadium tour. He’s impressed with upcoming facilities and experience it is going to offer, and says it coincides w/program improvement under JS.
And 5K show up for a 12:30 game and sure victory?!? Too bad.
Maybe many OSU fans aren’t ready for the lack of social distancing?
Above average run D rating (not as good as the top two guys, but still good), below average coverage rating like Roberts and Speights.
Roberts and Speights have consistently had poor coverage grades their whole careers. Not sure if it’s because of our system and the rest of the D being bad, or neither is worth much in coverage.
They were good at focusing on the few pockets of tightly grouped fans, but if you look at photos of the stadium from yesterday, it was just north of spring game attendance
This guy has some good shots of the west side and terrace from the middle of Q1. And didnt someone in the game thread yesterday say the east side was even less populated?
I just don’t like how we match up with them. They have a very strong passing game and that definitely seems to be this defenses weakness. I just feel like if Purdue and Hawaii could throw all over us why shouldn’t a talented USC team be able too. I would feel better if we could run the ball down their throats but not sure if that will be the case. So far they don’t seem to be running as effectively as they did last year. I hope I’m wrong and they can pull out a win but I’m not overly optimistic. The team does seem to be getting better each week and Nolan is playing well so there’s that. The talent and speed of USC will be the most Nolan’s faced so hopefully he can adjust. The line needs to help him out and give him time and open up holes for the running game.
WSU is kind of shit show this year so there’s that. My buddy who’s a WSU fan thinks Rolo is in over his head and doesn’t know what he’s doing.
I’m glad their backup went crazy against Wazzu. Now we have tape on him and won’t be caught by surprise. Similar to when Nolan came in against Purdue. I doubt he has that much success had he been the starter. Time to see what Tibs is made of.
First! Go Beavs!
First!
Almost first?
Lee corso says “not so fast my friend”.
Firstish.
This^^^^^
I’ll never forget when Joe Avezzano lost to Idaho in 84, pretty much sealed his fate. But it did pave the way for the great Craig Kragthorpe “wide open attack” era. We all called it the “your fly’s open attack.”
Err…. Dave Kragthorpe. How soon we forget.
And Erik Wilhelm initiated the Oregon State QB tradition of holding NFL clipboards and signaling in plays…
Not bad for job security though. That clipboard is not going to hold itself.
Craig Kragthorpe would have been an awesome name, though.
Steve Stevens would approve.
GoBeavs
Where is the game being broadcast?
P12
P12 Oregon?
Yep P12 Oregon
For 99% of the country, it’s not
There is a Rodent on PAC 12 if that is any consolation….
My incisors tell me 35-point margin of victory
Idaho HC says our offense is even better than Indiana’s. Then again, this is the same guy that said “they have a really good kick returner,” so take it for what it’s worth.
BREAKING — Andrew Chatfield, Florida Gators edge-rusher and former bluechip prospect, spotted on Oregon State Beavers visit. He entered transfer portal in August. NB said some stuff about this guy not too long ago.
It’s almost like somebody put in a few good words for OSU back in early September. ;)
NB – numb nuts Nemec reporting Chatterfield, the edge from Florida is visiting this weekend. Any insights? Does he have 2 years of eligibility? Would he play next year?
I dont know for sure if he’s a grad transfer. If he is, he could potentially enroll for fall term and be playing for us this season, which is part of what makes OSU’s school calendar attractive.
Something worth following up on.
Btw, he is not the current Andrew Chatfield in the student directory. We happen to have a student with the same name already.
According to JS, Jones “should see the most snaps he’s seen yet.”
Well that could be 1.
Or he could watch from the sidelines…
Anyone have a link for streaming?
SuperBeta Prostate.com
Or X-Lax.com. Be more specific.
take your pick
https://sportsurge.net/#/streamlist/3587
Waiting for a long time in the GA gate line. Add 45 minutes to your game day schedules.
Dafuck kind of line play was that
Buffs look like crap.
Julians tackling is great this year. Super pleased with his improvement
Agree. That was his weakness last year and definitely isn’t this year.
Beaver defense getting vandalized right now
8/10 wordplay
3rd and long again. c’mon
Well got a 4th down stop. I’ll take it. I expect some adjustments and them to slow down on their next drive.
I thought for sure that was gonna be a fg drive. Time to bury them
We stopped a 4th and 2!!! Qbs on borrowed time, gotten the ball out in the nick of time 3 times now.
Who knew that Idaho is an offensive juggernaut…..
The first drive is going to be highly scripted and one of the most effective of any game. Give it a few series bud.
This!^^^^^^
Indiana close to upsetting Cincinnati.
Wild, they looked like garbage on offense against idaho
Nm cinch just scored.
Someone needs to call the cops. The OLine just mugged half their defense on that run
Impact players: Gould and Eldridge…
Lol, what?
Sign of a well balanced blue collar offense? No stars here.
But Gould doesn’t even start!
It’s P12 network. Just be glad they have the teams right.
Yep!
Great read and throw by Nolan! Nice stretch by Lindsay too!
Ma boy, Lindsey!
Chance with some great improv. He should start when Gebbia is healthy.
Under pressure throw too. Lindsay victimized the dB on that route.
That’s what I said before the first game with Purdue.
Me too but whatcha gonna do. Life is more fun being positive.
I wanted anyone but Noyer forever due to that brutal TD/INT ratio.
If our wideouts get some real mojo going I think some P12 defenses could be in deep shit.
Hayes has been good on kickoffs this year. Guys leg has gotten stronger
Weather affecting the qb?
Omg the bar I’m at cable just froze up.
In the Bay Area no Beavs. WSU scores easily on SC. Looks like Klovis knocked out.
Oh wow! Don’t like to see kids get hurt but could be good for OSU.
I’m with you on that. Good call. Hope he’d ok.
Feels illegal for the beavs to have a qb who can scramble for 20. Nice route by musgrave.
Beason has really really good hands
And 4.4 speed. Could end up in the League one day.
Good blocker too
Easy TD for Baylor. Oline have him a red carpet to stroll down. 14-0 beavs!
Purdue only down 7 at half.
ND is overrated this year. They barely beat Toledo and FSU.
Still makes me feel bettet
Uh oh, Idaho has a freshman running QB
They just put Speights on him the next play. Good adjustment
That flag on Julian was weak sauce
We Beaver fans have the worst luck trying to watch our sports. Half of you guys don’t get it where you are and my bar’s cable went out. Pretty frustrating.
Sucks man. Fenwick just busted a nice run. Broke a tackle with a spin move. Followed up with a great out route and throw for Bradford, timing perfect, right in the hands. Followed up with Fenwick just bashing through for 8 yards. Oline is nasty
Thanks. At least it’s Idaho and I can just watch the replay.
Fenwick TD. Basically untouched from 13 out but he made some nice moves and reads to skip in.
Ma boy, Fenwick.
Your boy Overman with the lead block at FB
Wasn’t that Lowe?
Radio guys said Overman
I checked and it was definitely Lowe. He had a really good seal on a lb.
How many kids you got man?
Watch out, Seth Collins.
Fenwick doing work on this drive….and now the TD! Out of the I-formation! Fullback position beginning to emerge…
Offense looks like it’s playing an fcs opponent which is really nice to see.
Offense is a clickin but defense leaves me wanting more.
Nice drive!
Deshawn Fenwick needs to change his twitter handle to @Deez_Nutz.
I’d love to see the OSU twitter account have to type out:
“That’s another touchdown for @Deez_Nutz”
Lololol
Julian hurt and in the locker room
Well shit
Exactly what we didn’t need out of this game. He’s been playing really well too.
Julian back out now
Refs have more offense than the vandals
Anyone got a streaming source for free?
my good stream
Working pretty well.
another 3rd and long with the qb scramble. my gawd
We need to get this QB to transfer. He is a great athlete.
He’s from Camas, too
My dude Schad getting some snaps
“Ma dude”
Running QB’s seems to continue to be our nemesis.
Rawls, Sandberg and Stover are all playing very fast. Great to see.
Arnold is all over the field too
I’m hearing Hughes-Murray a lot, too.
He’s busy every game. One of the best dudes to stay around.
TONGUE RECEPTION
It was a tasty catch
Tongue with his first catch. Wide open but tackled himself. He’s gonna be trouble for defenses
Nice to see Tongue involved. Shaky looking catch, though.
Should put Vidlak in the entire 4th Q.
Agreed.
Noyer got to do a Colleto impression
Put them in a body bag Beavs
Another nice route from Musgrave. Quick chip then wide open in the flat.
Should have hurdled
Like the play calling
Muskgrave looked pretty fast out there in space
Yeah he has massive potential
That TD play to QT was crazy! What double fake? That was awesome!
That was a thing of beauty. Great execution
Why run a play like that when the beavs running the ball to effectively. It worked out but could have easily been stuffed for a loss.
Musgrave will be all conference before he’s done.
Nice TD call. Should have saved that for USC, though.
was just thinking they didn’t need to pull that particular play out this game.
Or maybe they were setting that up for USC so the defense has to sag, leaving the middle open for Nolan next time?
It was complicated. Worth practicing I think haha
Indiana had them up 35-7 at halftime, so we’re tracking pretty well.
Too bad beavs didn’t start Chance Nolan against Purdue. I’m pretty sure the beavs would be undefeated at this point had he started that game.
looks like all he needed was some contacts.
Yep. Even if he played half as good as the past two weeks, he’d still be twice as good as Noyer. Smith messed up.
That’s correct. Noyer didn’t even come close to meeting the eyeball test whereas Nolan certainly did not parts of last year.
Lindgren is awesome. I-formation, 3 TE sets, double play action. I hope they don’t get boring in conference play.
USC QB2 currently limping around against WSU (Trojans looking pretty limp themselves).
Of course, they have like five blue chip QB’s on the depth chart, but still.
Omar gets us the ball back off a tip. Might get another Score?
Omar is coming!
TWSS.
What is under review?
They was chances first bad throw
Nom, tipped
Calling a TO here feels like a little bit of killer instinct
had a chance to step on their necks. smh
It’s 28-0, man.
Could’ve at least come away with a fg there. Wasted a turnover and good field position. Not so much an impact on this game but they need to capitalize on those situations to win once conference starts.
If the first pass wasn’t tipped it would have been a fg atleast. Perfection isn’t realistic
Nick Saban disagrees
Why would you call TO with 4 secs left when you let the clock wind down. Stupid clock management.
It was third and a mile leaves only time for a Hail Mary, not bad clock management when up 28-0. Calling the time out earlier potentially leaves time for Idaho if they stop us on third down.
Lol…like Idaho has been a threat to score.
I usually hate the repetitive commercials when streaming games online, but I’ll take an Ana De Armas commercial any time
How did you stream this game, I looked for options?
Purdue down by 4.
So few people at this game…but…at least I can spread out
But, beavs up 28 -0 at the half and at least I finally get to see my band nerd kid take the field
#GoBeavs
Nice
The shots of the crowd make it look like around 5k in the stands, maybe
Maybe. I’m on the old side bleachers, aside from the student section, east side is empty
That was a nice, efficient first half.
There’s no need to run up the score on Idaho. I do want to see the defense make adjustments and shut out Idaho.
Starting to cloud up and sprinkles…up 28…ground and pound
Go Beavs
Champ ro the rescue
*to
Nolan has a very pretty ball. RS Soph. Think we found our QB for a while.
Say what you want about inferior competition. He’s not screwing up. Making good decisions. More than we can say about past few experiences.
Yup, he will have to be hurt or be beat out. If he gets beat out in the next few years I’m going to be hellaciously excited
Fenwick looking comfy
Good route, good ball, good hands. I’ll never get upset about champ getting a great TD.
Looked like a Heyward coached DB there, if he’d turned his head there’s no TD, still good job by Champ to show enough speed.
Good memories lol
Any Gumbs sightings on the sidelines?
I’ve seen him high fiving teammates coming off the field, but he doesnt have pads or helmet
Is Gould on punt returns new?
Probably keeping Bradford safe.
I like it…should put him there full time if he has the hands.
He definitely did against Hawaii. I agree
I like the idea of getting everyone involved, if they can do the job. And he’s faster…
Classy to get Noyer in garbage time in front of family. Don’t mind this. Should get Vidlak some reps, too, so he doesn’t transfer. Might be a while before he plays given Nolan’s breakout.
Stover might be special.
Gebbia clearly jumps Noyer, though, when healthy.
Agree. Noyer experiment was interesting but I really don’t want any games in his very inaccurate hands.
Absolutely.
Noyer simply overthrows his targets. Senior QBs shouldn’t be doing that
Cougs getting ready to Coug it…
Noyer in at half way into 3rd. Really hope Vidlak gets reps.
OSU was Baylor’s only offer. Pretty strange. He’s not glamorous, but he’s very solid.
I like how he hates going down. Sometimes his fight after contact is special.
Should have gone to Baylor… imagine the confusion!
He’s improved a lot this year.
Who recruited him? Smith’s staff?
No he came in with the last Anderson class
The watchability of this game took a huge nose dive as soon as Noyer replaced Nolan. Can we have Vidlak for the rest of the game?
Losing the internet here didn’t help either
Nothing going right for Noyer when he’s in there. Some his fault and some not but just seems to not click while he’s in the game.
Missed the Noyer INT. What happened? My 56-7 is looking pretty good if Vidlak gets in there.
Blind side hit as blocking wasn’t good. Pick wasn’t on Noyer though.
He was hit blindsided as he threw it.
Didn’t change the protection, and got blasted
forgot they played early today. On vacation in Hawaii and tuned in to follow the game just as noyer gets picked. Vidlak should be getting that shot, Noyer already had his chance. Especially against these scrubs.
Not sure who, but one of the Beavs got away with a helmet to helmet on the 2nd down stop on Jordan
Vidlak in, but I doubt we see him throw much.
Be nice to see them practice the run game in hurry up mode…
0 for 1 so far
Is our backup D in?
Yes
Yeah 2nd and 3rd stringers. Mad arenas all over the field
We look like a real D1 team for the first time since 2006. I know the last two opponents helped, but even still, taking that out we have more dynamic, fast, physical players and better fundamentals. We beat Purdue if Nolan starts, too, so there’s that. Special year brewing.
Too soon… big boys upcoming.
Yep. Definitely will know more after USC. People tend to Gey a little reactionary.
Just seeing them live, the players physically look different than in the past, big, fast, long, more athletic etc
Wow USC scored 35 unanswered on WSU.
Trojans good or Cougars bad?
Both.
SC backup crushing WSU all by himself. Who knows what he can do with a week of prep.
Figures. Luck o’ da Beavs that another backup QB winds up being all world right before we play them.
It’s USC. Their backups are all 4-stars.
Like to see Newell or Collins a bit.
All these guys getting carries before Collins…is he hurt?
Might just have bad protection or not know the play book. Shannon and Mikey have been on the team as scout team warriors for years. I don’t mind them getting a reward
Yeah, but Gavin Haines?
Haines never got a carry. What are you talking about?
Ya I think its more of the scout team guys getting looks after being tackling dummies for years. Not to mention that he probably needs to add some weight.
Regarding Chatfield visiting. Makes me wonder if the timing of Ta’ron Madison transferring out isn’t related? Thought we were maxed out on scholarships up until Madison left.
Vidlak showed some grit on that last first down.
When was our last shutout?
Probably 2006 lol. I’ll take a look
Sun Bowl wasn’t it?
Yeah looks like 2006 against the Vandals
We should schedule them more often. They need the money and we need the confidence.
2008 Sun Bowl, 3-0 vs Pitt
Great performance. Defense was stout, offense moved the ball and was efficient in the red zone, and the game was in control.
Only negatives were that Noyer didn’t look like a D1 QB (at all) and defense didn’t really contain the Vandals’ QB.
Another great thing to see……..no one seemed to look past the opponent today, some coaches haven’t been able to avoid that pitfall.
Well it doesn’t help when you’re getting blindsided and the backups block poorly. There were reports in camp when the starting Oline wasn’t in they really struggled in protection and with penalties. Those reports look to be true. Moran and Miller definitely aren’t D1 size yet.
Well, he had one play where he was unhurried and threw it 8 ft over the wide open, not moving receivers head…so yeah he isn’t good.
He was still dropping too far.
If you watched any of gis games last year he isn’t not good. But yes he hasn’t played good this year.
Overthrowing a 10 yard curl route will get you benched
Nice to see playing time for so many.
But, did Lindgren show too much of the playbook today?
Could have been purposeful. Such as the double fake TQ TD. Now they have to prepare for both fakes and the same play. That’s a good bit of practice time for one play.
I think Lindgren is clever enough to not do that. If anything he probably called things just to make USC prep for it and doesn’t even plan on running them on them. Quite different defensive philosophies.
Good points, Nuke too. I’m sold.
Good dominant performance today. Nice to see the Beavs live up to expectations for a change. Offense looked really good. Defense was helped by some mistakes, no Field Goal tries, and a lot of 4th down attempts by Idaho, but they stopped them when they really needed to.
I hope both D and O lines can maintain their confidence and play for 4 quarters next week against legit talent.
How ’bout this:
Kyrei Fisher led Oregon State with seven tackles,
and this: B.J. Baylor rushed for 68 yards and two touchdowns, making him the first Beaver with three-consecutive multi-touchdown games since Storm Woods in 2012.
*Stormy
Somewhere Lindsay choked on a large pastry!
LOL
Strangely, I haven’t missed her
Her large frame is rather hard to miss
You sure it was a large pastry as opposed to a…….
SMU just beat LaTech on the road on a last second Hail Mary play that bounced off the defender and landed in their guys hands. Entertaining game
Great thing about the 7:30 start @ USC is I’ll be able to watch it.
Will call for good food, drink. Elk steak or elk burgers….
Went to the game. First one in over a decade. Not a lot of fans, but to be expected with the weather, although it was better than expected.
Idaho clearly was over matched, but it was very nice to see a shutout.
Nolan only had one bad pass that I recall.
Defense had issues with the RPO stuff they were seeing, but talent won out.
Would have like to have seen a few BIG TD plays, but over all can’t complain!
LOL, FSU lost to Wake Forest.
FSU is bad. Hey, no rodent gave up a score today!
You’re right. Bet that hasn’t happened much!
Rodent Rose Bowl???
That program is in a free fall. Hell they hired slick willie they were so desperate
Nice to see Stony Brook drive 80 yards for a TD against The Quacks. They are in Quack territory again but down 17-7. I think Oregon and Ohio St are both overrated, but tell that to the orgasmic Portland media.
Ya we’ll Oregon is overrated every year. Lots of pre season rankings are based on prestige. They definitely don’t look very good.
It would actually be a game so far, but the Stony Brook QB has thrown two ill-timed interceptions.
Ya they should’ve had a field goal before the half but the QB threw a terrible pick.
Orgasmic media….epic?
SDSU really taking it to Utah
Good win. Checked all the boxes. Used mismatches to great advantage. Shutout was big. If Idaho scored, I’d say it was a net loss.
Now USC awaits. They weren’t as wounded as believed.
Trivia question – when was the last time the beavs beat USC in Los Angeles?
1960
Didn’t we already talk about this? Wasn’t 67 or something like that?
I asked about the last non conference p5 road win. That was 1977?
But 67 sounds about right vs usc
Napkins is correct with 1960. Yikes.
I think it might have been 1978 against the other rodent. 17-14 over Minnesota. They beat BYU on the road in ’86 which was a nice road win and before Power 5, Group of 5 designations.
Just flipped to the Stanford game. Why do they let Stanford get away with obvious offensive PI? The guy literally holds the defender away from him with an extended arm in the guys chest. They’ve made a living out of it because for some reason they choose not to call them for it.
presser. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mdk9yGZbzmo
Damn, maybe Colorado should have been kinder to Noyer? They had 68 yards of total offense for the entire game. Of course, Luck O’ The Beavs that the Buffs aren’t on the schedule this season.
Yes they are.
Yes, you’re right. Excellent. I guess I was thinking not until 2022.
Saw an article that said Beavers’ only “unwinnable” game this year is @ UO. Fuck that.
It was unwinnable last year too according to the experts
“one of the more improbable wins that the beavers have EVVVEEERRR had”
I’m going to guess when the odds come out, USC will be favored by 10-14 points due to USC road win and the historic losing streak of the beavs in la. I would bet on the beavs though.
Maybe 16.5(?), it’s @ USC, who just dropped 45 on WSU…
Ya 45 unanswered!
W/3 variable opponents, Beavs averaging 36 points scored to 19 points allowed. Doesn’t tell the whole story, but indicates progress. Was nice to see them do today what they should have.
N. Arizona up on Arizona and Fresno State up on UCLA.
Rough day of non con games for the Pac again.
Utah lost to SDSU. Asu losing to byu.
Good game by Beavs and staff today. I am more confident in Nolan than I thought possible, and he has convinced me that he can be an all conference qb and lead Beavs offense to highly efficient productivity which will translate to a very balanced attack that few other teams have in the conference…
I think all road games are actually more winnable now than in any recent years. CIvil War will be a showdown for the North title unless the Ducks falter and lose a couple of games before Beavs get to them…
Looking ahead:
@USC -very winnable, SLovis may be out and back-up is relying on Drake for every pass attempt, emotional response to Helton firing is over and they revert to the reality of who they are…no discipline talented team sleepwalking Beavs win close 35-31
UW- beat up on the worst team on their schedule, maybe still reeling from MOntana, Huard probably makes his debut start…Beavs solid win 31-17
@WSU may be ready to implode after having USC on the ropes, Rolo may be gone by this game…Beavs win in a rout on the Palouse 45-21
Utah lost again, and pulled Brewer…QB controversy and WItt is having familiar problems on offense, Beavs offense rolls 35-24
@Cal gets a solid win and may turn their season around but will continue to be limited on both sides of the ball…Beavs win close 28-24
Colorado- Buffs can’t move the ball on offense…Beavs roll in a blowout 38-10
Stanford -may have a qb now, but can’t stop a blanced offense…Beavs win in the cold 28-17
ASU -good talent but may be out of the race by here and lack motivation in the cold…Beavs get win 35-31
@Ducks are vulnerable, and beatable, let them read their press clippings for a while, then burst their bubble …Beavs win in methodical beatdown 45-24
Bold.
I like the optimism and am feeling pretty good as well.
That said, that last 4 game stretch is pretty brutal. Don’t forget @Colorado gives us a big disadvantage with the elevation impact, and they did play TA&M pretty tough. Stanford with a real QB is pretty scary given that they’ve been pretty good with nothing for years now.
I’ll have what you’re drinking although I think you’re drinking way too much.
Fake future news! I like your positivity though. Beavs have a slog ahead of them whether you believe it or not. There will be no easy games moving forward. The last few weeks have shown we have no idea what kind of team we’re going to be playing. You’re list is optimistic that we’ll play the worst level of those teams, but history says we get there good enough to beat us level teams.
I’ll stick with my earlier prediction of 7-5.
Pretty much every team in the conference is competitive (except Arizona lol). It’s going to be a grind to get to the postseason but we can get to 6-6.
We really, really need Hodgins back as soon as possible.
I hope I’m wrong but the Beavs will have to play absolutely lights out to beat ASU and UO.
In a year where we might have the best teams we’ve had in a long time, the conference looks as bad as I can ever remember. This looks like some legitimate inverse Luck O’ da Beavs.
Nolan’s legit. My only real gripe now is he needs to be smarter with his runs. Run out of bounds when feasible, slide when not. Stop fighting for extra yards- we need you upright for the long haul. Hopefully if/when we need a backup QB, Gebbia is ready at that point. Noyer should not see the field again, and hopefully we can preserve Vidlak’s redshirt.
Yes good points. My early gut says we’re playing USC at perfect time too. We’ll be confident and should be relatively healthy. 34-31 Beavs. Nolan absolutely has to play well. Turn over battle is key.
Can anyone tell me what’s up with McCartan? Anyone, Buehler, Buehler….
The thought of McCartan, Stover and Sharp all lining up on D, all 6’5 or 6’6″, long and athletic, is a D coordinators wet dream
Hamstring injury I believe. Hopefully he’s back soon- definitely a playmaker.
Thanks dude!
Pick’em, trying to go 12-0 this week….wish me luck!!! (Down votes are welcome)
Hope your picks included UCLA piss down their legs with 54 seconds left. Ouch.
Let’s be honest as fresneck state deserved to win that game as they outplayed my bruins from start to finish. Ugh!
Your bruins? Gross!!!
Damn…underestimated the dogs!!! Fresno played the Ducklings close too.
That UCLA-Fresno game was absolutely crazy. Never seen anything like it
UCLA totally shit the bed. Big time pretenders.
Yeah, their secondary got torched. Still think their depth in the front seven will get them to a Rose Bowl because they’ll expose Oregon.
To think we have to play at Fresno State next season…
that was a great game. The Fresno QB was throwing some excellent passes.
Pac12 football what an embarrassing day*
*excluding beavs
Come on man, Cal beat Sac State.
#10 looked fast on defense
Has fisher been hurt? He was a solid recruit out of high school. I think originally attended Arkansas. Nice to have backups that are power five talent.
Arizona, three games in, loses to D2 Northern AZ. Now 0-3. Big yikes and why couldn’t we play them this year?? Hard to see them winning a game.
Hope Sterling watched that game. We’ve still got room buddy!
NAU is D1 FCS not D2.
The PAC-12’s biggest win of the day was Stanford over Vanderbilt. The conference is definitely up for grabs this year.
After a opening 0-24 beat down by KState, Stanford now has two quality wins (and decisive wins) in a row. As I said above, if they’ve nailed it at QB, they’ll be scary this year.
Vandy is one of the worst Power 5 schools. They started their season by getting blown out by an FCS school. Stanford should have won yesterday.
That’s the point. It was still the conference’s most impressive win (unless you think Arkansas St is better…)
I was disputing calling it a “quality win” unless I missed Alex’s sarcasm. Arkansas St might be better than Vandy!
Ohio State?
Disagree. It was the ducks win over a powerful Stony Brook team.
Wow Utah lost to (Brady Hoke’s) SDSU on a 3OT Philly Special after both kickers missed FG’s in 2OT.
Brewer replaced midway through the game as Utah QB. Utah looks less dangerous than expected.

As usual- follow the money.
Go Beavs
Ah yes, the great conspiracy continues.
692k reported dead
What’s wrong with looking into alternatives and therapeutics such as Ivermectin? I’ve read several articles like this from doctors.
Yes the conspiracy shit gets old, but the gist of the argument for viable alternatives stands.
https://www.evergreenfamilymedicine.com/post/state-of-covid-august-2021
https://www.evergreenfamilymedicine.com/post/an-honest-discussion
The article is about the media conspiracy. The only study I have seen on dewormer that recommended was withdrawn after peer review.
There’s tons of research on treatment and alternatives that are actually viable.
Oh and yes I’m sick of these dumb fuckers who have literally been wrong for 2 years at every step. WTNY has been wrong over and over with zero recognition of reality or their own failed opinions. They could stand on a pile of bodies making proclamations to feel good about themselves with a smile.
Ivermectin has been used in several countries with good results (see India) but yet it is being hammered in the USA as not even viable. To question why that is seems to be what a good citizen should do. You can call me what ever you would like, I care not. But the good doctor with 35 years in medicine makes a strong case and if you had cared to read the whole piece you would have seen a link to a aggregate of 63 studies that covers 26000 patients and the results are strong in the favor of using ivermectin. Is it the end all? No, nothing at this point is- including the vaccines. Israel is into they’re third round of shots and the cases and deaths numbers continue to climb. They are one of the most vaccinated countries at 78%. To question why is not being a conspiracy theorist but seems to be something all people should be wondering as well as why not Ivermectin in this country. The (de-wormer) cost a few bucks per pill whereas the go to choice in hospital’s for much of this pandemic has been remdesiver which runs around 3000 a single dose. I believe the term ” normalcy bias” has been used on this site from time to time and sure can be used in this context. These are, unfortunately, surely not normal times.
Just shut up dude. No one here is interested. It’s football season and the only thing your horse shit had done is help blow up delta and make it harder to view a game.
Boom. Next thing we will here as an alternative treatment is toilet bowl cleanser.
Israel isn’t one of the most vaccinated countries and the majority of their severe cases are unvaccinated people.
The head of the japanese department of health is also recommedning Ivermectin. People go insane if you pursue any means of treament besides what’s been shoved in their faces. But, America is also grossly over-medicated so it’s all a bit ridiculous.
… can we stick to football?
Yes!!! That crap led me to a four month hiatus from AB.
Fun PFF rating stuff after three weeks:
-Nolan is the #4 rated passer in the country. #2 QB overall in the P12 (behind Garbers, who has a super high ‘running’ rating)
-Bradford slipped down the WR rankings a bit, but is still ranked #2 in the P12 behind Drake London
-Julian is still our top rated defensive player by a wide margin. Surprisingly, our defensive ratings didn’t move very much.
They weight game situation in the ratings, so I find the guys with high ratings from garbage time interesting. They include:
-Taliese Fuaga
-Marco Brewer
-Tommy Spencer
-Makiya Tongue
-Kyrei Fisher
All we need for this offense to function is an efficient QB. Chance only threw for 175 yards yesterday.
We don’t need a QB who throws 350+ a game. Chance certainly has that capability but our strength is the run game. If we rush for 250+ every game, I don’t see how we lose with Nolan.
Well, we need a defense, too. Hopefully the shutout helps build their confidence.
For sure. The great field position all game also hurt yardage totals. Who needs yards when you can have points though!
Anyone keep track of backups on OL and DL who played significant minutes? Who besides Brewer? Someone at center?
This is why I pay for PFF during football season!
T
Taliese Fuaga-15 snaps, 86 rating
Tyler Morano- 15 snaps, 51 rating
G
Marco Brewer- 15 snaps, 75 rating
Korbin Sorensen- 15 snaps, 56 rating
C
Tanner Miller-15 snaps, 27.3 rating
Thanks!
Looks like there were 64 offensive snaps, so 15 was pretty good exposure.
I think, and hope, they weren’t the same 15 snaps for that group. Opportunity to build chemistry with the 1’s.
I’m pretty sure the 2’s all played together
Curious, just how bad is a 27.3 rating? Is that the equivalent of missing almost 3 out of 4 assignments??
No idea how the scoring works other than that 60 is roughly P12 replacement level. 27 is really bad, especially in garbage time.
It really seems like OL recruiting is a crapshoot or is that just OSU? Miller was a walk on and Morano was a lowly rated recruit that was very light. Pretty surprising that some of those guys are seeing the field over a handful of others.
From USA Today:
Jonathan Smith of Oregon State is replacing former Southern California coach Clay Helton on the panel of coaches for the AFCA Coaches Poll
And, Fresno State joins the poll at #25
Really glad I read the last half of that sentence.
Yeah I dumped my guts for a second
Now we know why SC gets ranked every year when they don’t deserve it.
Imagine being Andrew Chatfield, coming from Florida where youre routinely playing in front of stadiums with 80k+ fans, to Corvallis where we maybe had 5k fans yesterday.
Do 80k show up for games against fcs opponents too? Maybe he’s shy.
Good point, maybe just going 60k to 5k for an FCS game
Seriously, about 5K?
Canzano w/an article today on OSU’s virtual new stadium tour. He’s impressed with upcoming facilities and experience it is going to offer, and says it coincides w/program improvement under JS.
And 5K show up for a 12:30 game and sure victory?!? Too bad.
Maybe many OSU fans aren’t ready for the lack of social distancing?
It was closer to 15k. Still not great.
Zach Wilson is horrible.
One year(?) starter at BYU, late to camp due to holdout, NFL rookie…
Plus he went to the worst organization in sports. Not really a place to become your best.
Hey In OH how did Mascarenas compare to Speights and Roberts? He was all over the field in the 3rd and 4th. 5 tackles
Above average run D rating (not as good as the top two guys, but still good), below average coverage rating like Roberts and Speights.
Roberts and Speights have consistently had poor coverage grades their whole careers. Not sure if it’s because of our system and the rest of the D being bad, or neither is worth much in coverage.
Awesome! Thanks!
The good news is he is better than fcs guys. That’s always a positive for a true frosh.
Looked like a lot more than 5k on TV
Didn’t look like more than 10 though haha
They were good at focusing on the few pockets of tightly grouped fans, but if you look at photos of the stadium from yesterday, it was just north of spring game attendance
This guy has some good shots of the west side and terrace from the middle of Q1. And didnt someone in the game thread yesterday say the east side was even less populated?

Daschel tweets “very early line has USC as a 13-point favorite over Oregon State.”
-16 would have been a no brainer, under two TD’s? maybe not, thoughts?
And what money line would it take for y’all to put down the rent money?
USC smoked WSU and we haven’t proven anything yet. I think we can keep it under 3 TD’s, but with our D, who knows?
I just don’t like how we match up with them. They have a very strong passing game and that definitely seems to be this defenses weakness. I just feel like if Purdue and Hawaii could throw all over us why shouldn’t a talented USC team be able too. I would feel better if we could run the ball down their throats but not sure if that will be the case. So far they don’t seem to be running as effectively as they did last year. I hope I’m wrong and they can pull out a win but I’m not overly optimistic. The team does seem to be getting better each week and Nolan is playing well so there’s that. The talent and speed of USC will be the most Nolan’s faced so hopefully he can adjust. The line needs to help him out and give him time and open up holes for the running game.
WSU is kind of shit show this year so there’s that. My buddy who’s a WSU fan thinks Rolo is in over his head and doesn’t know what he’s doing.
USC’s strength on D is definitely their DL. That means absent a banner day from our OL, Chance is going to have to win this one for us.
“So you’re telling me there’s a Chance!”
How many times will that be said this week?
“Beaver strategy to avoid Trojan eruption: leave it to Chance.”
“Trojans are 99.7% effective when in contact with Beavers, but there’s always a Chance”
“Leaving everything to Chance, Smith calls for naked bootleg on 4th; Trojans fail to cover scoring plunge.”
If there is a game to run the fly sweep, this is it.
Need someone to block like James Rodgers….
Who played FB against UI? Thought I saw comments about a FB in on a play.
I think they used Overman.
Imagine using Tongue on the fly sweep @ 220 lbs.
Tongue can be effective on Trojans…
Generally you want smaller quicker guys. That’s why they use lindsay and Rodgers was so effective.
20.5….
USC’s back-up QB can throw and run…seems like a bad matchup for both O and D lines.
Can OSU keep their head’s up when the game gets tough? Or will they mentally fold: “Here we go again…”
Yes, the game will get tough, and yes the Beavs will keep their heads up. That’s been a trait shown by the last few JS squads.
Will grit be enough?
When is the last time Beavs threw in the towel?
Totally agree that JS teams have been mentally tough. When the fans have given up the team didn’t and has made comebacks.
I’m glad their backup went crazy against Wazzu. Now we have tape on him and won’t be caught by surprise. Similar to when Nolan came in against Purdue. I doubt he has that much success had he been the starter. Time to see what Tibs is made of.
We can’t beat ourselves, like wsu did
Cue beavergopher
