What I saw in interviews is that the Beavs were sniffing their own farts all week and enjoying the scent. Smith seemed aware of this. So what plays out?
Originally I thought 31-17 in a game they control but don’t dominate. Now I’m thinking psychology and ego come into play. Smith can try to coach that out of players, but it’s human nature, and therefore can’t be eliminated completely.
Also, I think the Beavs will have to pass more in this game, so I’m going with Nolan, Lindsey, and Harrison as the players to watch tonight. Morris has never impressed me as a QB, and given the Beavs D is getting more pressure, I think they force him into a few key mistakes.
Beavs are the better team, but fart sniffing keeps it close.
31-24
I’m in the stadium, about 30 min to game time. About 5% full except the student section which is very full.
Lota of time to go of course, but i decided to come in early to avoid lines.
Also, be smart and screenshot your digital tix before coming to a game. The cell service is terrible, here and it takes several minutes between clicks to bring the ticket site up. Idiotic process if they dont have wifi or decent cell service.
Technology isn’t always the best solution
They also advise to download to Apple wallet or Google wallet before coming to the game.
I have done that and screenshot to cover all bases
38-17.
Morris throws 2 ints. Nolan has a clean game and we run for 250+. 2+ sacks. We give up 300 through the air. Musgrave has his first big game.
$81 to sit in the endzone….wow!!
That’s like 12 chipotle burritos. I know which one I want more.
Then you’ll be the one smelling your own farts!!

Gave you a little heart. Man the weed is hitting hard tonight.
Nice!
34-27 Beavs! Another dominant run performance. Need to take care of the ball and get a few TOs on D.
I think my latest Tweet sums up the Ducks. Watch Canzano steal it tomorrow.
Why the Ducks always choke: they try to out-athlete teams and out-facility teams. This is simply a shortcut to doing things the right way. Trying to skip the hardest steps of team building and instilling fundamentals.
The yuck fan copium is so cuuutttte.
What are they saying? Haven’t had a chance to dig in yet.
Mostly pinning it all on the Refs and how Rob Mullens should be on the phone getting the game overturned.
Were the refs objectively awful again?
It looked like from the replay that there were about 4 penalties down the final stretch of regulation including 2 personal foul penalties which looked like the right call. There was a PI penalty that was a lil ticky tacky.
Thanks. Will try to find the OT and watch it. Really concerned about the refs. They seem worse than ever, and they’re really going to mess up someone’s season at this rate.
Overturned?? lol
“If Rob Mullens isn’t on the horn at this very minute to George Kliavkoff about this bullshit officiating crew, he’s not worth his salt.”
“There has to be some sort of repercussions against the officiating team right? The poor officiating likely changed the outcome of the game, there has to be some suspensions or something of the like”
“I’ve never been this angry after a loss. I hate when fans blame refs, but I can’t think of any explanation other than the refs wanted ‘Furd to win.”
Most fan bases don’t know how to just lose in abject misery like us. It’s sad to see…
Hope the Beavers seize the opportunity and 6 pm time slot.
6pm and we’re at maybe 15% capacity, if I’m being generous.
Except students section which is packed shoulder to shoulder, so that’a what you’ll see on tv
Give the unsold to the rest of the students.
Pitiful.
There were thousands waiting to get in. Lines all the way to bloss. Said 33 thousand in attendance. It wasn’t that many but the crowd was loud.
We juat gave a nazi salute as our new “tail slap” crowd gimmick at Reser. Wtf?
Can explain later
I’m gonna guess you’re really reaching with that.
31-17 Beavs.
35-21 Beavs. Physical game. UW won’t be able to handle our run game and Nolan makes the throws he needs to to keep the defense honest. Beavs get 2 picks tonight. Go Beavs!
Welp UW showed up to play.
7-0 Huskies. Beavs were fart sniffing too much.
Someone put their hands up and deflect a pass please.
Ya there was two chances to knock some down
Beavs need to put their hands up when the QB releases the ball.
Attacked Grant twice with good success. Hopefully he can step up his coverage.
Classic 3rd and long conversion. Secondary got picked apart. Gotta respond
That was a good route. Needed pressure
OLine wasn’t sniffing farts. Coach M seems like a guy who can keep players focused
The defense looks slow tonight and not as motivated to play. Hope they pull their head out of their butts and start playing. Offense better come up with an answer to their TD.
Also, UW is a faster team on offense than our DB’s. We can be physical with WR’s, but can’t match their speed.
Uhhhh. Oops
This is going to be a long night.
Don’t let your experience as a beaver fan hold you down!
I don’t mean there won’t be long sustaining drives at this rate. Need to help our defense and a pulling TE running into the QB reminds me of a time my buddy in HS had our head coach tell him an OL Guard to slow down to let the QB get to the handoff. Exact same issue on that play.
Why does the only player from my high school alma matar have to be the fuckup
Fuckin Musgrave. Poor execution kills the drive.
Ya just stood there earlier on that pass knock down
2 bad plays 1 good. Not a favorable ratio
Another nice punt
Not good.
JS has too much respect for Lake. Similar to ANderson not running against Utah.
Beavs should just line up and run at them…
I agree. Run the damn ball
Nice to get a stop
Yes let’s run the ball. 1 good 1 and then 1 where he was barely tripped up. I’m sure lindgren will adjust.
Weren’t there two Beavs in position to block on that punt return?
They both just got beat. It was a strong play by 21
They were day dreaming about USC.
There you go.
Fullback off tackle. Awesome
Run it again!
Crazy legs alllll daaaayyyyy. Jack hammmeeerrr
More run!!
Power T Football https://www.amazon.com/dp/0136868169/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_N4TEZCAF55ADF74BBWPE
6 in the box and a LB spying Nolan.
Man chance could of taken off so much earlier.
That was a catch! How is that not reveiwable?
Best I can tell is cause the receiver went out of bounds (was forced IMO)
Non reviewable but got away with illegal touching. Might’ve been better since they missed it. Maybe would’ve punted.
They were saying the flag was on Nolan stepping out of bounds before throwing the ball, not Lindsay (although he stepped out too).
I don’t get football rules. How is the QB stepping out of bounds or not not a reviewable play.
no, it’s because the refs blew the play dead as Nolan released the pass and called Nolan out of bounds. Nolan leaped out of bounds but his feet hadn’t touched the ground. It’s similar to calling a player out of bounds when he leaps to pull the ball back into the field of play like on a punt out of the endzone or a fumble popped up out of bounds. It was reviewable, but not in the aspect of what Smith wanted to have reviewed.
Good explanation! Fucking refs
Chance just was backing up instead of rolling out earlier and could’ve easily ran for the first to the left.
Don’t seem very confident. No expressed with this version of the Beavs so far.
I think it was Beaver fans sniffing their own farts this week. Half of y’all were predicting a Beaver blowout FFS.
I love Beaver Nation. Predicting a blowout win against a team we haven’t beaten in a decade.
1st time Beavs haven’t scored in Q1.
Beavs will make adjustments. Don’t panic.
Nice grab by Wright! 1 handed!
Yes!
Well, that’s moot. Got the ball back where Linsdey would have caught it.
Fenwick so far does not look suited to run against this D. Baylor, Lowe…
That’s an extremely difficult recovery by Wright. Jeez. That’s where a legit 3-star (makes that play) matters vs an ordinary 3-star (doesn’t make that play).
All due to the coaching of Tibs!
Money! Colletto!!!!
Colletto for Heisman.
Huge hole for coletto.
Way to start running the ball and take momentum back. D should be rested and theirs tired.
Godfather voice:
“Send in Colleto.”
Nice to see them not panic.
Nolan is going to have to relax and play better though.
It will be good for them to have a tough win. Builds character….
Who is #9? He blew up 2 huskies on that kickoff
Tongue or Fanke.
It was Tongue
Thanks. Stud play.
That was insane.
I like Julian and how he hits people. Flies around.
Good lord Julian can tackle. Perfect head up technique too.
Who said they needed to get the hands up on the DL? Julian’s hit was laying some hat.
Defense looked impressive there. Momentum is on the Beavs side. Should demoralize them and run it down their throats now.
Angry called Julian out preseason as a player
Yes. And had him as a 4-star.
A few of us did.
“There’s somethin’ brewin’ in Corvallis” – AB.
Hold on Musgrave.
That is why you wrap up and not go fo a hard hit.
BJ made a great play on that 2nd effort
1st
#22 got Baylor-Ed…
Fenwick is a downhill runner. He doesn’t wait, he just goes. Wish they hadn’t of taken Fenwick out, he was rolling.
It worked out
generally does when we’re within the 5 yard line. I would love to find the stats of TD’s when we’re 5 yards or less.
Very high haha
Who said fenwick couldn’t run against Washington?
Someone who was panicking lol
Grind them down. The o-line is nails.
Exactly what I called for. That’s got to be very demoralizing for them and great for the offenses confidence. If D can get another quick three and out Washington might give up.
That looked like a hold…Beavs get away with it. Maybe makeup for last week.
I love a well executed counter so much. Defense absolutely hosed trying to stop our power run game and bj has half the field.
I love this run identity. reminds me of Jim Harbough Stanford team of power running mixed with efficient passing. honestly as a former Olineman, I enjoyed run blocking a hell of a lot more than pass blocking. easier to know you can run over the guy in front of you every play.
It is nice. I like that it’s a bit trickier too. Stanford only had to run about 10 plays a year.
Smashmouth football. Play action could be huge as game goes on.
Physical running by Baylor and Fenwick. Credit the tight ends for setting the edge.
Beavs got punched in the nose but now they’re delivering haymakers.
Another example of why wrapping up when tackling is so important. How many years have we been asking for players to wrap up and not go for the big hit? Julian’s tackle is a prime example of a big hit while wrapping up.
Another great tackle from Julian to save that.
There is that 1st of 2 pick s you call for Nuc
This team makes me look like a genius when I’m just living fantasies.
Great pressure!!! Second turnover this half!
Morris has never impressed me as a QB, and given the Beavs D is getting more pressure, I think they force him into a few key mistakes.
There’s #1
Man devastating decision there.
Gotta learn when the sack is the safer bet
Hmm, this is kinda like the Nolan of last year. Not sure why you pass.
Why did we go away from running the ball? I understand establishing the pass, but the pass should compliment our running game.
Suppressing the run game is really working. Their just teeing off on the qb now
Run the ball please. The passing yards will come.
Why throw? Just run the ball for fucks sake.
Jesus. Cmon special teams
Terrible execution by the punt return team. You have to block or tackle him and then at least fall on the ball and not let it roll 15 yards.
Nolan sign an NIL deal w/Squirrel’s Tavern?
Careful with that ball Baylor.
Angry, ya boy’s got to catch that.
Fuckin lindsay. The beavs execution is killing them it’s not so much Washington.
I agree, our execution is not as sharp as it could be, but this game was going to be a wake up game for the Beavs to not sleep on an opponent. Also, don’t play down to your opponent.
Grant hasn’t been very sharp here tonight.
Can’t let good teams hang around. Had some opportunities to separate and get ball at half.
Sloppy 1st half.
Why take Pleasant out?
For a pleasant surprise?
Someone seriously took a sign to this game that says, “We want Bama!”?!?!?! Angry is right that fans are sniffing farts. I just want UCLA in the Pac-12 Championship at this point. lol
The bend but don’t break D saves them at the half.
Nice to see Tibs boys getting some credit.
Tale of the first half:
Tripped leaving a WR open.
TE runs into QB stalling drive
Missed FG
Dropped pass stopping drive.
Muffed snap on punt and cant capitalize.
Poor decision on int.
Need to clean it up in the 2and half. This staff has shown they’ve been good at half time adjustments. If they’re running effectively only pass when necessary.
20 yds via the pass for Nolan in the half. He doesn’t look nearly as confident/decisive as last week.
Been hurt by some drops too.
Yup, that late one by Lindsey really hurt.
First drive of Q3 needs to be a run-dominating-clock-eater for a TD.
Spot on, use those blocking TE’s.
127 yds at the half. Yikes. Let’s get creative on running the ball. Passing game looks bad all the way around. Nolan not sharp. WRs dropping balls. If anything you’d think the play action would be very successful but I think you stick with the run until they prove they can stop it.
Don’t try to force the passing game. Run the ball. Let Nolan run a few times, slide.
Daschel estimates 35K in the stands. What does NiceBeaver think?
I’d take what he says with a grain of salt, he’ll swear that there’s no more than 10k in the stadium, and oh yah everyone is throwing Nazi salutes too.
Looking west from the east side it did look 2/3 full…student section in front of us was rockin
What’s going on with The Beav receivers not getting separation? Is it the play calling or is the Huskie secondary that good? On a couple of those plays, I felt Nolan was too patient and should have just tucked and ran with it.
Their secondary is very good.
Explains Nolan’s squirreliness…
I hope he’ll start throwing it away if need be.
Chance looks a bit rattled. He is forcing throws.
I would go back to attacking the perimeter via the run coming out of half. The interior run game is getting blown up at times by their DTs, but we need to establish play action.
Maybe he was too busy signing NILs all week.
Halftime, they’re calling out UO for not adjusting to Stanford’s routes…
Stanford sure enjoys beating Oregon.
UCLA offense is very familiar. In a way that gives me nightmares.
Luckily we don’t have “Hand Jive Banker” as our DC anymore.
Wow. That WSU WR Jackson TD catch was outstanding. Literally “Next level.”
Nolan should run on half his dropbacks. Usually not a fan of the qb leaving too early but I think it’s been wide open compared to what’s there in the passing game. Plus its demoralizing.
I like it.
My guess is they were concerned about Nolan getting hurt by a cheap shot in 1st half and he was under directions to avoid scrambling for yardage.
Halftime adjustment will be designed rpo for Nolan to run. Probably some fly sweep, just no more turnovers and they will control the game.
GRRR!!! That was wide open!! I think Nolan is rattled and is putting pressure on himself for some reason.
Once again terrible execution to start the 2nd half.
Even the announcers don’t understand why they’re passing the ball. Nolan hasn’t looked much better than Noyer tonight.
Played into their hand with the playcalling. I don’t mind the max protection on the first play to go for the throat and then Nolan just ran it but after needed to go back to the run and then run some more.
Nolan making our decisions. I think he could have pump faked and run.
Where is the fly sweep?
where is the screen?
Screen got blown up early on.
WR Screen?
Roberts with some coverage!
Tibs D gets the ball back, now FLY SWEEP
Hip-Hip Hooray!!!
D showed up that drive. Nice!
Roberts w/10 tackles, INT, TFL already?!?
Maybe w/only 40 yards, wildcat down w/Colleto, Baylor…
Where’s Baylor?
Getting blown up by No. 91
Who isn’t looking for a BJ?
Might want to start going to a hard count.
Hard count……worth trying
Run to the outside…….very worth trying
Stop running the ball at No. 91! Dude’s blowing up Eldridge
wear him out or eldridge out? Which is the game plan?
Nolan took off a little too early there it’s better to let the receivers scramble and make the DBs make a decision to take the QB or receiver. 3 points tho.
Need a pick here
We need to be more creative with the run. Need some fly sweeps and fake sweeps.
If UW just runs Pleasant….
Need to make adjustments to the slanting DL.
Dumbass announcer saying first down before it happens. Hate that.
that’s why he works for the Pac-12 Network and not ESPN/ABC network.
I was watching and he’s like throws for a first down. I was thinking that’s presumptuous and sure enough it wasn’t. Asshole.
1 guy blocks 3 defenders on that quick throw.
Since that first drive the defense has really been coming hard.
Swarming Beavhive.
Enveloping beaver!
Swarming defense! haven’t seen that type of defense for almost 16 years or so.
So great to see that as a behavior now
It’s so nice to see a defense that can still get there aslong as someone slows them down.
Gang tackling is finally back. Like the good old days
TIBS
“Chooo! Chooooo!” OOB is on the Tibs train!
Swarming Beavhive!!!!
More swarming…
Now it’s time for the O to put up 7 !!
Time for Nolan to come through.
Be a great time for Lowe to go for 90 something and get the Cinderella game
Starting from the 8. Hey, wasn’t it a couple of 92yd drives that sunk SC?
92 meh, let’s make that 96 instead. Don’t want to make it too easy.
Let’s see how lindgren adjusts to the slants they were using to stuff the run.
Lincoln Kennedy is good. Has he done Beav games? Don’t recall him.
91 getting hurt is a big loss for them.
Looks like confusion after false start…
AND timeout…
MUsgrave should’ve stayed in his dorm room, not mentally here toady, entire game
That would be huge if 91 is done for the game. Don’t want him seriously injured, just enough to sit the remainder of the game.
#4. #4. #4….
PI?
Dumb
Receivers aren’t helping tonight
Terrible series. Trying to give this game away.
Nolan could be taking off and running
As much as that scares me for injury concerns we need to do it.
Lot of mental errors tonight on offense. Not a lot of time left to fix them.
So No. 91 is taken out of the game, and we throw two incompletions rather than give it to Fenwick.
Logic!
Really need to keep the passing to minimum. Why not move the pocket some and let Nolan roll out and put the pressure on the d to run?
91 went out and we pass? That was the one guy stuffing the run.
Run the damn ball. Christ. There’s always a few times a year that they try to get too damn cute.
We can’t stop them much longer. They likely tie it up now. We’’ve had too many chances to put this away.
Got to run off tackle or sweep, c’mon Lindgren!
Time for int #2 for Beav defense…
Beavs need to play like they are behind rather than trying to preserve a lead.
I see the old wounded set up for disappointment Beav narratives in here. Not this year guys and gals.
Said in a Bill Murray voice. Works so well.
3rd and 18. Jesus
Wow wright with the lame big hit but julian and speights stop too early.
Why is a team that runs wildcat so mystified by it?
To be fair, could ask the same of UW.
Ffs
I said the beavs can’t let them hang around. Momentum gone.
No one attempted to wrap up. Terrible.
Not wrapping up is the only reason they got a first
TWSS.
Made it look easy.
Defense is gassed. If we can’t score on the next drive, I don’t like our chances.
Beavs can’t score, so the Huskies now have the edge.
OSU struggles w/rare success.
It WAS 3rd and 18….
What a terrible effort. 2 sacks and then I saw guys celebrating after and thought it’s not over you fuckers. Sure enough just made them look pathetic from there after.
Lindgren better start calling it better. In his defense the passing game is terrible and they’re beginning to stop the run. If 91 is out they should be able to run tho.
“ What a terrible effort. 2 sacks and then I saw guys celebrating after and thought it’s not over” that’s what I saw.
Washington’s figured us out on defense.
One defining drive to end the game and seal it, 9 minutes of ball control and creative running plays to grind the clock?
Lo, or just fumble it.
They said Beavers were easy to trap in the 1850s. Apparently the same as 2021.
What a fucking disaster.
Game.
Too much fart sniffing all week.
What was your game prediction again? Sniff sniff.
Game over.
Was Chance the biggest fart smeller all week?
My husky friends all just started texting me after being silent all night. Twats
Game summary: Their Colletto is better than our Colletto.
Is it not you can push but not carry? Wtf!?
Nolan and lindgren are being exposed at this point. It’s not too late to go back to the run game. Haven’t fooled them with the play action yet where Nolan has made his bread and butter.
Nolan is done. He’s like scared little boy out there. But he’s a Heisman dark horse, so he’s got that going for him.
Maybe the Beavs should give champ the ball and let the olinemen carry him down the field…
I don’t understand abandoning the run instead of adjusting to their slanting?
They need to throw more.
Imagine paying for tickets for that shit show. Even after the guilt trip the athletic dept tried to lay on people.
Looking like USC was an anomaly. Why the fuck does Lingren do this a few time a year? Why the he’ll don’t we run the ball? He not a fan of 5+ yards per play? Defense looked great for a bit but now the usual suspects are back. Can’t tackle. 3rd and long. Tibs apparently had never seen the wild cat before which is surprising since our offense has ran it for years. Too bad. Had an opportunity to make a statement tonight, well a positive one anyway.
Wow I cant believe everyone here!
Regressing to the mean.
Everyone is a big word!
Sorry but a bunch of chic lils!
Gould is fast.
What happened to beaver believers?
Trams drama my bruh
OK EVERYTHINGS FINE
Gould is really fast.
U guys still giving up?
Nah, just mourning my 38-17 prediction.
No offense but I can’t fathom why anyone would predict a 2 pt. favorite to win 38-17. You and the rest of our fanbase was delusional.
Karma probably.
“In all due respect doesn’t mean you can just say whatever you want Ricky Bobby”
I like Gould. To bad we don’t see him for almost 3 quarters.
It is cool to have a team where your surprise wideout is faster than an oiled piglet running from 8 year olds.
Weeeeeeee!
C’mon guys this team has showed they can come back and never give up. At least you could do the same when it was a one possession game. Now let’s go!
And you turn out to be right.
Hmm, weird. Running the ball. Who would’ve thought?
Fly, then off tackle…….7
Better find an answer for that wildcat and fast.
Answer = Avery Roberts
Huskies getting away with back to back holds.
Ptsd
Thank god they’ve gotten it right thus far
Stuff’em
Better score now. No fucking around. No field goals. Touchdowns only.
Our best in theirs in the trenches. Make’em feel it big guys
Fucclkkkimmmmhhhhhhggg yeessssss!!!!
Yes! Is it possible my feed is slightly faster than yours in Hawaii? Sometimes seems so.
Yeah but your internet is slower, evens out lol
Lol. It truly is.
Do we not have a student body left or right to counter those slants? If they want to go one way or the other just take them on a trip.
Love the first down, but keep your feet for Jeebus sake
Run that clock out!
Wow, jimmy lake is a sneaky fuck lol
Wonder what this game would’ve been like had we not stopped running the ball for 2 quarters
I don’t like this one bit.
Happy to see Smith making a solid coaching call in a high pressure situation.
Relax. If he misses we bust their nuts in OT
Better make the damn kick
Why not sneak it with emphasis on ball security and make it a pat essentially.?
I don’t like leaving it up to the kicker.
Nm that was good there. Basically a PAT. Hayes missed one tho but protect it and it should be automatic but were the Beavs.
Fuck, this is Riley type over thinking. The defense is jacked up. Score and boot out the back of the end zone and hope you hold them. If not you go to OT.
It’ll probably work, but it sucks.
Exactly what I was thinking,,,sort of Riley-esq
We’re river boat gambling on the kicker. Jesus.
I’m glad it worked but fuck. If Hayes was Serna in his later years I’d be alright with it. Hayes isn’t proven yet. He just missed one tonight. Ugh.
It was basically a PAT, settle down.
He missed one 10 yards further. Actually he missed it twice the first was a timeout call on that out of bounds throw review.
We winnnnnnnn!!!! Fuck yeah boiiiiiiisssss. Golden foot redemption!!
Hell yes!
Why the fuck not storm the field? Glad they’re enjoying it.
Covid for everyone!
The real winner tonight.
Pfft! Outdoor transmission isn’t a thing.
I’m not sure a field rush will work with social distancing.
So, sitting in a crowd for 3 hours will?
Holy shot. These boys battled! I guess we won’t be hearing from Bowdown.
Did Bynum catch another pass after the TD? He disappeared after dogs 1st drive.
Resilient team
Go Beavs
Scratch Ticket Smith and Swarmin’ Tibs finally get it done…..with a little late help from Lindgren.
Let’s hope this gets the attention of every player, way too close.
Anyone feel bush league that we are storming the field for beating a 2-2 team at home??? Don’t mind me I’m just shirtless in my driveway honking the horn.
I’m running around the block naked with my Beav flag as a cape.
Thought I saw a flash of orange and white in the distance
Lol. Shoot some guns off, just to celebrate.
We’ve been humiliated by Washington for the last ten years. This is absolutely worthy of storming the field.
With an asterisk for UW’s win last year! Should be two wins in a row.
Beavs lead the north, why the fuck not storm the field?
I was happy to see the energy in that crew…maybe you had to be there?
https://twitter.com/angrybeavs/status/1444517545281658885
Sizzle
My game over comment completely nullifies my 20-17 prediction.
First win against UW since 2011. They’ve humiliated us since. God, it feels good.
I had the 31-24 until Smith played that weird.
Pretty sure that was text book. Specially when the other team is letting you score
I was screaming at the screen to give Fenwick the ball and let him score.
So much for Nolan’s Heisman campaign.
I like Nigel Burton’s analyses of the team.
That championship defense call was cringy. They are getting better every week, but it’s not championship defense yet.
Well fuck. I turned off the game when they were down by 7 and playing like shit.
Trained for heartbreak! Didn’t you hear Bill Murray up above?
Gunga galunga
Am I bill Musgrave?
Baylor and Gould co-mvps.
Those Gould plays late were huge. Team couldn’t move the ball. To use his speed there was genius.
How’d they use him?
One was a run around the edge, and the other I think he was against a LB.
Fly sweep first, then a pass over the middle
Fly sweep and then put him on a post.
Then on side kick?!?
Damn, I almost stuck it out. Ha ha!
Glad they stuck it out and didn’t quit.
Got a text from my bro. “Ding”
“Beavers”
I’m killing it on Twitter tonight. It’s like everything that comes out of my hand is spot on (I’m the anti Chance Nolan).
https://twitter.com/angrybeavs/status/1444520904021590020
Smelling your own farts now!
Hahahhaha
There was a great South Park where smug SF people were enjoying their own farts in wine glasses…
Canzano is liking these Beavers. Not adoring the ducks like usual.
Front runner!
Beavs end up w/240+ rush yards, TOP advantage, TOs even out…and the win.
UW gets to go into bye heartbroken.
I won’t be surprised if UW beats UO.
No. 1, P12 north!
Get used to it!
I’m still mystified by the Gumbs situation too.
Simi Kuli, on campus version.
I’m calling all the chicken littles that said the game was over after the last touchdown. This team has shown great resiliency and people panic way too soon. Trust them and this staff.
For those who said a tough game can be a teacher. I think and hope you’re right. This game could
You called it! You didn’t give up on them.
The Riley stink runs deep.
We’ve all been beaver fans for a long time… we have PTSD
Thank God they stopped using the wildcat cause we had no answer for that. Course, had we kept running the ball it probably would’ve been an issue at all. Glad to see we get that close win finally. Hoping the Nolan of the first 3.5 games makes a comeback and this is the outlier.
He’d better expect other teams to try the same thing.
Well we stopped it and injured their Colletto. That’s why they abandoned it.
I just hope everyone Smith is not like the Beavs of old and has demonstrated that and can convince people that if they’re not dead this team is in it!
I have to admit, I’ve been a Beav fan for so long that perseverance is not in my vocabulary when related to football. Jonathan Smith is teaching me some new words.
Glad Smith listened to me on Twitter and got out of his own way. I notice since he’s stopped making errors, we’ve stopped losing games.
I’m just glad the snap was clean because many teams in that situation would attempt the field goal on 3rd down because if the snap is fucked up you have another down to try again. Smith went for FG or OT by running out the clock. Kicking on 3rd down would have left UW with about 30 seconds, maybe that was even too much time for Smith to give to UW?
Now Angry, be modest…:)
This was in my eyes as big a game if not more then USC win. Great job Beavs. It wasn’t pretty but a win is a win. Let go! Roses baby!
Winning a tough “trap” game is nice.
WSU next Saturday @ 1.
It’s not only nice, it’s the kind of experience JS will use to focus this group.
Some thoughts…
Game MVP for me is Baylor. 2 TDS, 100+ yard game. That 1-2 punch of Baylor and Femwick is lethal.
The interior run game looked dead for most of the second half because No 91 and 94 were wrecking the O-like. But we made the adjustment to put Colletto in at FB and run I-form. That additional blocker was crucial. Lindgren won us (and almost cost us) the game.
Nolan struggled. I sort of expected it; Washington had a huge advantage in their secondary. He’ll come back down to earth and get better from this experience.
Tackling is improving, but it’s still hit or miss. Feels like we need Jones and Hodgins back to take the next step. We simply get too tired on long drives and need those extra bodies.
Team took the next step towards competing for a division title. Celebrate tonight, and then focus on Wazzu. It’ll be another tough matchup.
7 straight losses to WSU, correct?
Time to end another streak.
Nolan had no one open tonight. The passes he did make the defender was all over our receiver or our receiver didn’t catch it. I thought Nolan actually wasn’t as bad as it might have looked. He went through progressions and ran when it served best. Washington might be the best pass coverage team we face this year. Nolan hopefully will shake this one off and move on.
There were several dropped passes that didn’t help his confidence.
Jones is back. He played a few snaps today subbing in for Wright.
One more W and that “over 4.5 wins for the season” bet pays off!
Now, about that PAC12 North division champ bet.
I put 100 on that one and 50 on us winning the conference. Looks like old nuke might cover for once!
Beavs win. dux lose. A good day.
Tough game for Nolan, but that throw to Gould was clutch. Was able to move the chains with his feet a few times when they needed it. Too many drops by the WR’s, no rhythm tonight. UW’s secondary is pretty good so gotta give them some credit. Musgrave….
Is Stanford the longest losing streak now?
That was fun
It will be fun when I rewatch it knowing we win. That was nerve racking!
I just love that Smith bested Lake, and he did it by taking full control of the game in the last 3 minutes. Made him feel helpless by not letting him have the ball back.
Letting people score is the cardinal sin of football. Bad Jimmy.
I told him to punt.
Respectfully, MVP Avery Roberts, no question.
The D is making plays this year…in bunches…then giving them up…then making them. Almost like they’re young people playing a game….
They’re starting to get TFLs again, TOs for the first time in a while…getting to the QB or close…definite progress. If the consistency would come it’d be a lot easier on fans!
Can’t remember the four basics which Tibs preached when he first arrived but I AM sure one was takeaways and another was tackling/gang tackling. It’s taken time but he is getting there.
The emphasis on turnovers was being pushed especially hard this spring, Blue teaching DB’s to block on an interception retuen…I’ve seen some of that in games.
So, anyone lookin’ for tix on the Tibs train now?
Not yet?…….no problem, lots of season left.
3rd and 18. Tibs is awful on 3rd and long other than that he is serviceable. Rushing 3 and playing soft coverage on that play swung all the momentum and almost cost us the game.
True, an area that needs improvement.
But also true is that dawgs made only 6 of 14 third downs tonight.
What do you think of the delayed blitzes? They seem close, and sometimes, like tonight, impact the QB and end up in a INT.
OSU held UW to 318 net total yards and 24 points and got a couple of TOs. In the modern context, that’s pretty good. Better tackling would certainly help.
On that third and 18, wrapping and driving would have prevented a first. i hate it when D players just think they can run into a player.
If I were Tibesar, I would spend an hour or do Monday showing the defense film of “how not to tackle”.
UW player stepped out of bounds before the marker. Am I the only one that noticed it or am I mistaken
It looked like the Beav could have taken a slightly different angle and just shoved him out of bounds using his momentum and hands instead of that weird half-block or whatever that attempted tackle was. Not to be picky, but that almost cost them the game.
16 tackles! Maybe he should coach tackling practice.
Oline have been the guarantee week in and week out MVP. Washington adjusted and they did the same and sealed the game.i bet Eldridge is tired from 91. He was a load.
That adjustment to add Colletto at FB at the end was huge. He was blowing huge holes and they had no answer. I honestly might nominate Colletto as offensive MVP – he absolutely transformed those last two critical drives.
Colletto man – he just does everything well. Before long he’ll be a full time starter on both sides of the ball.
Agreed. I fully expect to see that package more often this season.
And next year true fullback Horton should start getting reps…probably just RS this year and put on weight. That kid is apparently a student of the FB game, and loves to hit. Looking forward to him getting on the field.
Colleto: Tacklin’ interceptin’ LB. Wildcat runnin’ & TD scorin’ QB, blocking FB….all on one scholarship. That’s ROI.
I like it that Gould can come in late, “cold,” and could execute when it counts. OSU has a number of players that don’t get a lot of consistent touches, and Smith/Lindgren’s ability to put them in and have success reminds me of what Petersen used to do at BSU where some role players might get one to two designed calls a game, and they’d deliver. At least against the Beavers. Also nice seeing WR Tongue taking out people on ST.
With regards to RBs, Riley never was able to use multiple backs well. And Andersen was, well, Andersen. I love seeing this team run the ball with more than one back, and the diverse run plays designed for the WRs. I’d like to see Gould lined up behind a FB and get the pitch and use his speed. A request: sneak Lowe or Baylor in at FB with Fenwich at TB and give them the hand off for a quick burst up the middle off a quick count.
Storming the field: good for them. Have fun, you’re college students. And OSU didn’t just break a losing streak against UW, they took first place in the PAC 12 N for the first time ever.
This is an entertaining team to watch in terms of style and lack of quit.
And, this team is clearly getting attractive to legitimate 3* and 4* recruits. That’s all you need if well-coached. RB Martinez is psyched about coming to OSU, starting early…Collins in the fold already…need to keep it going with the lines.
This program is also building leaders and mentors. Boise State and Iowa do this; USC and Oregon don’t. We have something promising to build off of.
Just. got back from the game and was surprised by the loud crowd. They didn’t announce the attendance but I’m guessing it was between 30-33k and hot pretty loud in the 4th quarter. The game ball should go to the defense especially after the offense’s anemic performance notwithstanding the beavers.0teo drives in the 4th quarter.. I noted earlier in the game that Nolan’s passes didn’t have the usual zip and wondered if he was having a shoulder issue. He just looked off and they really never let him throw long except one play as I recall. I thought the beavers defense was tough and really kept the game close so hard off to that effort. I also think this win really sets up. their remaining schedule quite nicely. Every game is certainly winnable and their confidence has to be sky high given they won’t and didn’t look overly good in doing so. Good teams find ways to win even when they’re not playing at an optimal level. I’ll recheck my prediction but I think I had the beavers winning 28-24 as I posted yesterday. Great win and go beavs!
BTW, I did mention that OSU 226 yards per game rushing #1 compared to Washington #10 against the rush would be the key. Beavers had what 250 on the ground. When you own the LOS you usually win
I just found my post on October 1 @ 10:15 am and picked 28-24 beavers. Close but no cigar.
Well that was obvious to just about everybody if you read anything here or any preview of the game.
Someone challenged the comments about the rushing yards and said the huskies rushing defensive ranking was exaggerated due to the Michigan game so not everybody in here agreed with the Rushng game stats if that’s what you’re referring to?
I’m not sure how many tackles Colleto has, but his stat line through 5 games is pretty impressive.
X Tackles, 1 Int, 1 TFL, 14 carries, 4 TDs, (how many first downs?!?) X blocks…
He’s should really be in consideration for POW honors at some point.
As of last week, he was PFF’s top rated LB in the country (granted, on a small number of snaps.)
He’s got 4 tackles.
Pac 12 website has “highlgihts” which includes showing the Bynum TD, then in slow mo, then showing it again at full speed.
On UW’s first wildcat TD, OSU’s Grant just pushed him, didn’t try to wrap up. On the second wildcat rush TD, UW lineman grabbed him and carried him into the endzone while a Beaver had him in a leg hold trap that likely would have stopped him.
The penalty that is never called. Ever.
“Surprised UO lost? You shouldn’t be.”
This article gets some things right:
https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/pac12/2021/10/02/oregon-loses-control-playoff-destiny-but-shouldnt-surprise/5974736001/
I think its funny they suggest UO doesn’t have enough talent, after all the recruiting rankings.
“For as well as Mario Cristobal has recruited, there’s not enough talent across the board to show up without full focus and enthusiasm. The running game has to dominate or the offense is going to stall. The defense at less than full strength isn’t good enough to stop even average offenses.”
This is off though:
“A manageable schedule in the rest of the regular season awaits. The biggest test comes Oct. 23 when UCLA heads to Eugene in a game that could be a preview of the Pac-12 title game. Two wins against the Bruins would certainly change the outlook for Oregon come December given how unpredictable this season has been.”
The biggest test comes when OSU comes to town.
And by the end of the season, that Ohio State win won’t look so impressive. Ohio State has a nice win over Minnesota (sorry BeaverGopher) then wins over Tulsa (1-4), Akron (1-4), and Rutgers (3-2).
Plus, UCLA has lost to Fresno and ASU, so even a win over them won’t mean as much as might have been expected.
A OSU Pac Championship victory over UCLA would be sweet. With OSU ending streaks (USC, UW, likely WSU), it’d be nice to be the Chipster.
Fresno State lost at Hawaii tonight. So their win over them lost some luster
But the beavs win over Hawaii gains some more respect
Agreed. I can’t believe Hawaii beat FSU..
According to Nick Daschel from the Oregonian there were 33,733 people at the game. As someone who was one of those people that seems spot on. Reser was rocking tonight and the students (9,500+) played a huge part in it. Loved every bit of it.
Agreed as I was there two and I estimated between 30-33k as I posted earlier. I thought it was a very good crowd and loud too but it’s the last time I pay $81 to sit in the endzone. I went thinking I could find a scalped ticket but didn’t see anyone selling outside stadium. Any recommendations for where to buy cheaper tix?
Got home a little while ago and decided to read through the thread. Most of you bailed after that Nolan fumble, haha.
Game atmosphere was good, I thought the students really showed up and were loud. I actually thought that 2nd quarter sing along with Miley Cyrus Party in the USA worked pretty well as far as setting a fun atmosphere in the stadium. Not sure if any of that made it on tv, but it was just before it got dark and quite a fee fans had their cell phone flashlights on which gave the stadium a cool look.
Aside from the student seats, I’d estimate the paid attendamce was around 50% or slightly less. But we were loud enough to make a small difference and if the Beavs keep winning, I can see the potential for the game day atmosphere only improving. Today was a good start at least.
They really need to fix the entrance process at the gates. It isnt the covid checks that slow things down, it’s the terrible cell service and having everything digital. It happened again at half time when fans were trying to re-enter.
Fix that, and they’ll have a pretty good game ecperience going.
I’ll explain the stupid nazi salute thing later. I may even have a photo for evidence
Lol nazi salute, get out of here…
It’s basically Florida’s gator chomp
Yeah, I have no idea what he’s referring to. They did the beaver clap thing similar to the gators but I did not see anything resembling a Nazi salute. Are you a conspiracy guy too?
Hadley Heck seems cute. Glad to have someone a bit younger and toothsome aboard. Was getting a bit tired of looking at Mamma Machado all the time.
Post game presser up:
Urban Meyer turns out to be just another predator pedo. These coaches seem more and more to be revealing their hand that they just get into the game so they can get into young girls. Pedo access.
I guess above wasn’t the best time to comment on Hadley Heck.
What’s the deal with Meyer? This is new to me
My understanding is he’s hitting the bars to get some hot young bimbo tang.
I thought it was one of his own steakhouses, and a young woman was rubbing on him somehow.
Remember we when old man Mike Price went from WSU to Alabama to strip club to unemployment? Ha!
Post game thoughts:
It’s really awesome that we have 3 very reliable tacklers again. Alton, Avery and Omar are nails.
We saw Chance against a very good secondary when his pass catchers weren’t helping. He didn’t crumple and kept working. He’s a good qb and his guys need to catch the ball for him.
Colleto is a beast. I’m starting to think he has a decent NFL career just due to his incredible usefulness. I could see him getting on a practice team and ending up all over as a mr fix it for someone. Also his additional size is really fun to watch now. He’s gone from Crazy Legs to a punisher. His blocking was even great.
OT question: when do the players party if they have a Saturday game?
Seemed like your boys Lindsey and Musgrave partied before the game as they reverted back to 2020 drops and inconsistent play. Lindsey should not start as he is not always reliable but can be a stud.
Did you watch the D*ck game? That same officiating crew that fucked-up the USC game royally fucked up the UO/Stanford game. There were at least 5 huge questionable calls against the d*cks — that booted two players for targeting including Thibidouex there best player. Stanford’s final drive had 4 questionable calls against the d*cks, Stanford had one targeting call reversed in OT, when it was clearly elbows to the head . In OT Stanford had a clear false start where three of their linemen stood up and the red grabbed his flag but never through it. Their interpretation of PI and holding on DBs/CBs is baffling and very inconsistent. None of the 50/50 calls went the d*cks way.
Bottom line is, that crew is just plain awful, and heavily influences games — someone might want to figure who they are, if Beavs get them again, it could lead to another USC shot show — I hope they get reported to the league office.
Should have been reported last week by OSU.
The targeting call against T was a good call. Direct contact with his head. Duck fans whined all game long as did Jerry Allen and Mike Jorgensen. Bad calls are a common occurrence with pac12 officials so good teams must adjust and be,able to handle adversity. The defensive hold in the endzone was also the correct call leading to the untimed play and tying score. Ducks have benefitted multiple times over the years on questionablr calls too. There were some bad calls against the beavers last night too but they overcame them and actually won despite some of those calls but very few flags were thrown so it was a relatively clean game.
Post game interview. All they talked about was getting back to work and not giving up.
Will OSO crack coaches Too 25?
Probably started too far down for this week. Maybe next week.
