Bye Week Thread

414

Open topic for the buy week. Discuss anything you want, ask me questions, etc.

I’ll throw out a question to get things rolling: how many games do you think the Beavs win the rest of the season?

Also, Disney’s Gameday will be in SEC country again. Considering ESPN (50bil) is 1/3 of Disney’s market cap (150bil) I don’t see this trend ending any time soon. My suggestion: boycott their amusement parks and their media. If you do need to visit ESPN for some reason (i play fantasy football there), firefox in combination with adblock, betterprivacy, and ghostery are your friends. Do not give them a cent.

Go Beavs

Oregon State @ Colorado

Thanks to last week’s game versus Cal, Colorado is putting up gaudy numbers.  The QB has almost 1800 yards and 17TDs. That being said, Sean Mannion historically has performed very well versus below average defenses, and this CO defense is up and down but overall not very good. Now, I have not watched a single snap of Buff football, so this is based on last year and the stats, but I think OSU wins this game just due to Mannion playing well versus bad defenses.

The Beavs are 4-2 in this series, but most of that was pre-1990. Just one game (last year’s 44-17 win) after 1988. They are 1-2 in Boulder, but again all old data sets.

OSU’s offense is a pass happy disaster, but I think CO is one team that can work against.

31-28 OSU

Over concussion protocol.

What would OSU fans do in this situation?

“Bob D is the best we can do”, if they even noticed the botched protocol. Then, if someone did notice the error (like we here at ABs) and started a petition, they would shit all over it and say you can’t enact change from a blog.

Beaver fans deserve what they get.

On a Tuesday. And on the day MLB playoffs begin.

Saturday on ESPN & WatchESPN: College GameDay in Oxford, Mississippi
Statewide Pride
The Bulldogs and Rebels have given the state of Mississippi plenty to cheer about. On Saturday, the teams share a common goal.

Absolutely pathetic.
