Here we are Beavos, another year wiser and another year balder.
Kickoff to the new season is at 1pm.
I’m going to wait until after this game (should be more like a scrimmage, but Riley will find a way to make it close) to give predictions on the season. Gun to my head right now I’d say Beavs finish 7-5, but teams never win the games they should, and the Beavs are especially bad at it. What they have going for them is an easy schedule, so 7-5 should be the low barometer. I don’t see a magical season here, but we’ll wait until after tomorrow before making big picture calls.
With regard to the Portland State game, what I want to see is if (a) the Beavs can get a big lead and then (b) if Riley will pull the starters and give the backups some valuable experience. If he doesn’t, we’re stuck with the same old dumbo Riley. Other than that, this game isn’t very interesting.
Go Beavs
Haven’t heard anyone guess we go all orange with white lids tomorrow. Would be a pretty kickass look. Feeling more and more like white-orange-white with maybe orange socks. #WhatBeaversWear
Wear what you like, but I’m going Orange t shirt and khaki shorts.
Who cares what the beavers wear. Is fedupbeav the reincarnation of beaver byte? I’m more interested in seeing how the o-line performs and how our receivers do.
Go BEAVS!
Must be tough for you guys to lose your hair. Thankful to never have to experience such a thing.
64 degrees and 43% chance of rain at kickoff. Bring your poncho and 3 extra layers if you’re a Willamette Valley hot cocoa girl.
mm hot cocoa…girl.
PBH is back and raring to get this season started! A three week trip to Europe was extended due to an emergency surgery and getting cleared to travel. Arrived home yesterday, so now it’s 4:00 AM and I’m looking for some lunch.
The next time your right-wing brother in-law tells you that he doesn’t want “no commie medical care here in the good old USA” have him call me. French hospital, emergency room, surgery, three nights, post-op visits…out of pocket $203.85. They tell me that my US insurance might even pick that up.
I’m way too lazy to go back over 100’s of posts. So what did I miss? Did any O-lineman survive fall camp? Who is the backup to Mannion? Is Will’s dad happy with his role? How many pissing matches did Jack get into? Has BDC emerged from his bunker after the testosterone surge of firing CR? Can’t wait to get caught up! JB
PS: Hope I can stay up for the 10:00 PM kickoff.
PPS: Anyone planning on European travel toss it out. Would be glad to share ideas.
Thanks for the info on the the Frenchy health care system! It’s comforting to know that when the Algerians riot and burn down the Paris suburbs every year, they won’t have a copayment for their ER visit after getting tear gassed. It’s hard to hit a Gendarme in the face with a rock or Molotov cocktail with a bad rotator cuff, so hopefully the physical therapy is paid for by the taxpayers also.
Hilarious observation as usual BG.
Hey, you hosting an epic tailgate when the Beavs roll into Minn or what?
If I’m still breathing Jason.
We are going to Seattle for the Beav game. Is the FTS road tripping to that game?
I want cross Husky Stadium off the CFB bucket list.
We def will be in Seattle for the fusky game. Deciding on a hotel location soon that is close to transit.
Hilarious??… stupid comes more to mind.
But then again do you know what they call a doctor that didn’t go to medical school?…. drum roll….
A dentist! Now that’s hilarious.
Don’t you have to be a French citizen to use that system? Is your name over there petitebonehead?
No. They want a name, DOB and some sort of ID. Admission took five minutes. Didn’t have to fill out a mountain of forms or meet with any business office personnel. They are more interested in getting you better than collecting money and avoiding a lawsuit.
It was truly unbelievable when it can take you five hours to get three stitches here in the US. Of course I gave them pettibonehead. Are you suggesting that some people on this website use nom de plumes? JB
Oh, I wrote “petite” bonehead, like a French version. It was a joke attempt…
I’m living the medical nightmare you describe, so this French system does sound pretty good.
Sorry missed it..one of those words you read by sight. Believe it would be “au petitebonehead” technically.
Sorry trapped in the system. The insurance companies have us so screwed up it’s beyond belief. Up here, in Oregon, an insurance company, Moda, paid millions to rename the Trailblazers Arena. How many claims did they have to reject to come up with that much spare cash? JB
PS: OH well… will bury myself for the rest of the day in the real world of college football.
With the start of a new season, CraigBeav has sleepily emerged from his long beaver hibernation. It’s 9AM here on the gulf coat, got a nice thunderstorm rolling over, I just ate a shit-load of bacon, and I just cracked a 9% orange / coriander belgian I brewed specifically for gamedays.
My pre-season expectation: 14-0 with a national championship and an absolute crushing of the ducks in the civil war along the way, of course.
GO BEAVS!!!!!!!!!!
Nice! I make a great Belgian Wit and even use my own coriander but it’s more like 6%. Sounds great in a couple of hours.
It’s rainy here in Astoria too with a chance of bacon for breakfast. I like the way you think.
Don’t forget the grits with your bacon! I’ve only been in the south a few years now, but I’m now fully convinced they (particularly south Louisiana) do food better.
Cheese grits!
Umm yeah, you’re not getting good grits in Oregon unless you make ’em yourself.
We need to play LSU again so I can try more authentic southern food.
Belgian beer and bacon. You have excellent taste.
Based on the content, I’m guessing that’s not the first Belgian you’ve cracked before posting this am.
Welcome back….PBH and craigbeav. Here in Bend, I’ll be entertaining a cold Coors regular. oSu wins~41 to 10
Coors? Surely you jest man, you’re in the land of Inversion IPA!
Coors homefry? Sorry, but you’re going to have to move to Lapine. I’ll be at Little Woody pre-game and halftime.
Thanks Homefry… fist bump. Agree on the score PSU ain’t EWU. JB
Shit, my previous exuberant enthusiasm not withstanding, the vegas spread for us today is -32.5. I ain’t touching that with 100′ pole.
Buff’s embarrass the PAC 12. AZ impressive blowing out UNLV?
UNLV’s secondary was absolutely horrible. A whole team of TZs and Pankys.
Oh my. 1 Pankey was hell on earth. Imagine a full team of them??
Why did we have to expand to 12 teams? I understand the political aspects but doesn’t BYU & Utah seem like better “athletic” fit? These decisions are based on the mighty dollar anyways so they should never have brought Colorado in.
Having said that they did beat wazzu last year right?
BYU has no business in the Pac-12 academically.
Refreshing to not have BDC walk us out in the same tbing every week and be able to predict it with complete certainty. Could be 100° in August and BDC would go all black.
Massari night and day and actually speaks well and has charm. Promote this guy to AD when Bob’s contract expires. Don’t extend BDC. We have had enough extensions. Massari is the total package and should be the face of OSU Athletics soon and not in 6 years or something. 2+ years will be hard enough to wait.
Forgot to post last night, but……..
Whiskeys upset lock of the week. Navy will beat tOSU
Navy leads tOSU 14-13 in the 3Q
It was just pointed out to whiskey that this game is in Baltimore Maryland not at the horseshoe. Whiskey is an idiot
tOSU is always overrated. Throw in the fact they lost Braxton miller for the season and they’ll be lucky to go 6-6
Whiskeys prediction = epic fail
OK faggots, time to get yo ass kicked again by a lower division team. Coach Burton got dem wolves ready to pounce! It ain’t gonna be pretty and Mannion gonna look OK but yall gots no depth on dat squad, and ain’t nuttin yo boy Riley can do bout it. It’s gonna be another Sac St, Eastern Wash kinda party today chumps!
Somebody stole and drank all of CraigBeavs 9% Belgian brewsky.
Nope, they’re safely tucked away in the laundry room fridge… except the half dozen I’ve got in me at this point :D
Just a guess here, but your lack of knowledge of the English language leads me to believe you are Kyle peko. Or just stupid. I’m on the fence
Ucla are a bunch of chunk blowin’ peeshwanks and it’s damn wet and sticky in the swamp. Come on Beavs win a game for the ol’ saloppe. I’m out.
– from the swamp.
Yall stay on dat Mr Rogers mediocre grind doe huh? Wit dem ugly ass halloween colors too?! C’Mon mane! Dats some funny ass real comedy shit right thurrrr
Your grasp of the English language is astounding
First offensive play: play action with throw to Hamlett. 15+ yards….
Other guesses?
Dive right, 0 yds
Almost kickoff time! My favorite time of the year! Thanks angry for keeping this great site going. Enjoy your grits, Belgian beers, coors, bacon, brass monkeys, and the sorrow of going bald. Let’s enjoy being undefeated while we can. Fuck Oregon, fuck the Taliban, and go Beavs!
Probably because of Stanford vs uc Davis. I’m sure there’s a stream of it.
Lol first snap over Mannion’s head.
False start!
Good job prepping the guys, Riley.
Great start
2nd and 33.
Snap over the QB’s head and a false start. Off to a great start!!
Defense looks good, offense looks terrible. That’s about what I expected.
“They’re closer to Local Boyz than their first first down”
Comment of the game so far.
Loomis punts for PSU? Damn. He was a good prospect years ago.
Like the larger beaver on the helmets. PSU should have logis on theirs.
Logos or logiis but not logis.
Is that the Loomis that quit after one year? Seriously?
Well… it’s not like we’ve had weird things go on with any of our special teams personnel.
Garret’s attention to detail really paying off on that first series…my god. Parker tried to attribute it to “stage fright or nerves.” Really? Against PSU? At home? With a senior QB.
Riley is so lame.
Stage fright? I thought that only happened at urinals?
Parker is paid to be an apologist.
“Riley is the dinosaur of the Pac-12″…sounds about right.
Owens good from 25. 3-0.
What was the story with trevor romaine? Any details surface on that?
Academics. Just pure stupidity
Tapped the Elder last night.
Hair of the dog right now.
Mmmmmm!
Beavs look like I felt this morning.
I’m glad we’re paying Reed $200k so the special teams can have their shit together.
This PSU QB is horrible.
He is about what I would expect from a D2 QB in the first game of the year.
The EWU QB last year played out of his mind. I don’t remember a single pass that wasn’t perfectly accurate…and I don’t remember a drop either. OSU’s D was horrible obviously, but their offense played absolutely mistake free. And that’s rare on any level, let alone D2.
That’s true, but this guy isn’t throwing the ball within 5 yards or WRs. I can see not throwing guys open or hitting guys in stride, but this is ridiculous.
That would’ve been a TD to Cooks last year.
Storm with a HUGE draw.
If Mannion has time he’ll be lethal.
Throwing beautiful passes.
Bad spot. Challenge that.
anyone else find it ironic that Mitchell wears the same number as Mike Remmers did? Penalty waiting to happen
Doggonit Weinreich!!!
4th and inches, false start on OSU. Jesus this OLine…
If the coach challenges a clearly terrible spot they get 3 more shots at it. Riley is such a bone head.
Are you f’ing kidding me?
Fuck these coaches. Same shit every damn year.
And here comes the PSU “wildcard” QB to light things up haha.
New season, same script. No challenge of an obvious blown call, get lit up by a nobody QB.
1. Who is the “Former 5 star prospect from Miami?”
and 2. Way to give up the big pass there. Dumbdumbs.
Jalen Grimble
Clock was CLEARLY at 0.0 before the snap. That HAS to get reversed or Riley is a dumbshit!
Dinosaur of the Pac-12
This is the team you guys said looked good? Looks like the same old Beavers.
UCLA may have a worse Oline though. Only 1 offensive TD for them today, 3 by the D.
aaaaaaaaand as fucking usual clueless how to stop a mobile qb. Fuck you Banker!
And here comes the nobody mobile QB.
Wow a running QB scores on a long run. Who would’ve guessed.
There’s the Pac12 warmup we were waiting for. QB takes off, we give up a 60 yard TD.
Classic Beavs.
Zimmerman even flailing on the tackle fail…very familiar play.
but he’s decent according to him. Shouldn’t see the field. EVER
Vernon Adams all over again. Against this QB? Please. Where is that vaunted D? Ugly!! :(
Flailerman gave up the 25 yd pass that got called back too.
When was the last time the Beavs started a season ready to play? This is not rhetorical. I want answers.
Wisconsin 2012
Good point.
We need hurricane delays to get ready.
It’s like our coaches don’t know that quarterbacks are allowed to run.
DO NOT compare Mullaney to Hass. Besides being racist, it’s preposterous.
Who compared Mullaney to Hass? And how could that be racist? They’re both white…
that’s very funny//thx..
Bolden fights for the ball on that “catch” the ball hit the ground!
It hit the ground for sure. Luck O the Beavs?
Caleb forgot the count.
Smith has left off from last year with stupid penalties.
Mobile QB?
Mannion’s first rushing TD? Not counting those stupid 6″ QB keeper plays.
Defender holds Smith AND hits Mannion after the throw. Scumbag.
MANNION RUNNING TD LOL
Receivers (Mullaney, Gilmore) having trouble getting separation, something I have been worried about.
Mullaney has never had streak down the sideline speed. He’s a good across the middle possession guy. Never going to break away from anyone.
Boldens catch he had wrestle it from defender who was right with him hop to hip.
That ball hit the turf clear as day on that pass play. I couldn’t believe the commentators didn’t notice it.
PSU’s defense is often rushing 4 and dropping 7 back. So when the announcers talk about how nice of a pocket the OLine is creating…they outnumber the opponent.
It’s also possibly why the WRs are having trouble getting open.
Sooooooo….run the fuckin ball?
Hip hip horray, hip hip horray
The best part was all the jazz Mannion got on the sideline from his teammates.
F’ing stream froze up. Mannion ran it in?
Untouched from 6 out
Anyone else think Tinkle looks kinda evil with his white hair, super tan, and then black gear? Dude has a weird look…
I’d bench Winn for the rest of the half. Stupid.
Not a fan of Wynn. He’s so overrated.
WTF Wynn?
Just wanted to play some more snaps?
I’m looking forward to the Tinkle era more than CR. CR was a banker at heart, and we all know bankers want the most money for the least amount of work. This is their nature.
Mark Banker?
I thought Craig did a really good job of recruiting, but couldn’t coach for crap. If Tinkle can be an okay recruiter and a real coach, we’ll be 5x better even with less talent this year.
That being said…this year is going to SUCK.
Yeah I think next year things will get okay, though, and beyond that looks promising.
7 fucking penalties already???? We aren’t even halfway thru the 2nd qtr
Still finding our identity?
Holy crap that was janky.
More and more penalties almost double digits!
These late hits are pissing me off. Don’t be scumbags.
Jesus fucking tits Helen! Back to back personal fouls. 9 penalties and counting
Horsecollar. Jesus.
On the plus side, our facemasks look BADASS.
I can’t believe you suckers thought this would be a good team. This looks like a 5 win team at best.
“Suckers”, really? What the fuck are you talking about.
I was cycling around town this morning (like Riley!) and caught a pee-wee football game. They played with more discipline than the Beavers. 9 penalties. Zero discipline, zero control, just mayhem and poor coaching.
We may have more penalties than points.
Defensive holding. 10!
Team is so undisciplined. No pride in the precision to have very few penalties.
I forgot that the only way to watch Beaver football is the P12 in 60 replay.
What the fuck was Doctor doing on that play? Slip and slide replay?
Another rushing TD from a D2 QBs.
It’s moments like this where it pays to be a nihilist.
Dear god. Another running QB TD. And another huge fuckup by the defense, could have gotten off the field but Murphy supposedly held(nobody could see on those shitty replays). He and Wynn are supposed to be vets, wtf.
This is a 5 win team. At best.
No since running it now, since we are in a dogfight.
That defense certainly looks like the strength of the team
Disagree. They’re getting crushed by a D2 school and have no discipline.
JAMES!!!
…save us!
Fire banker already
Oregon will beat South Dakota by 90 and be razor sharp and disciplined.
Same old shit from Storm.
Ground Hog day. MR will start throwing every down now.
Garrett has headphones on and the play card in his hand.
Can we OFFICIALLY be done with Riley if we LOSE a 3rd straight cupcake game to a frickin’ FCS opponent. NOWHERE is this even close to tolerated. Beyond bad. Riley doesn’t have the mustard to take us beyond 6-6 and another unearned extension. Put this dog down now!
Throw short of the stick. Classic.
Funny watching PSU receivers running wide open, and our receivers blanketed by defenders.
Garrett and his NFL ties making a huge difference. Chalk up another battle of wits to the Pollyannas
Mannion looks mediocre at best. We know the coach he got that from. That is being generous.
And our DLine has gotten little pressure and no sacks so far. AKA not a strength of the team.
AND ANOTHER QB RUN. FUCK YOU BANKER.
Wow. They are going to lose because of another mobile QB.
We need to challenge them to a water balloon fight. We would kick their ass!
Hey, they ran the exact same QB run play that killed us twice and we actually stopped it!
Banker is stealing from the state of Oregon. How can someone be this terrible at their job?
He seems to be enjoying his illl gotten gains, must have put on 20 lbs since last season,
WTF. The Beavs use a timeout in the first half?
Need leave time for PSU to score again.
Banker’s bright hat looks like something Frankie would wear on Big Brother.
He has an orange face and pink lips. It’s a really odd look for a 60 year old man living in dreary Oregon.
A real AD wouldn’t tolerate this shit year after year. Give Riley the option, either Banker goes or you all go.
Bolden is looking good. If he can get separation on his routes he could be a beast.
Alright Mannion. Take us down for a TD before half.
Clock management failure once again
Vanderveen time!
Weird rule.
Terrible clock management. Garrett fail here. They lost 26 sec on the first play on the short pass and then on a first down play it took them 10 sec to get the play off.
Wasting time again. Shades of the Alamo Bowl.
Vanderveen tease.
Also, retarded Pac12 refs. Classic.
Riley proving he is the guru of clock management again. Ugh…
Garrett DRILLED that practice FG. Love this kid already.
Misses the one that matters. Luck o’ the Beavs
Great call!
Need to make the one that counts.
FAIL
Real kick is way off. And we’re down going into the half, classic.
“This fanbase is all too familiar with this storyline”…not sure who this telecaster is, but he is on the ball.
Way to play for field goals.
Practicing for the CW.
Riley really knows how to get his teams ready to start the season. One of the tangible benefits of having a experienced HC!
If you get a contract extension for being mediocre why change?
Good point!
After 14 years it is time to admit the Riley experiment won’t take us any further. Let’s cut bait next week if we lose and go with an interim. Otherwise if we win but don’t make a bowl do it after the season and pick the best of what’s available. Plenty of coaches like Tinkle know yiu can recruit tk Corvallis with the right attitude and energy. Riley has neither.
First half takeaways, none too good:
-still can’t manage the clock
-still talking about running the ball and not doing it
-still cannot seem to focus and play with discipline
-Garrett effect a disappointment so far
-Perry the only coach in skybox? I still want Locey up there as well.
Now, a chance for Riley to show how he can motivate this team, Ron Callan (sp) says he has rarely seen Riley this pissed…….yeah, that’l be worth a lot!!
Oh yeah, still cannot handle a running QB!
Nothing will change. EVER. None of this “this is a chance for Riley to do xyz”…he is what he is, and we all know it now. There’s no way to spin it, hope he changes, etc. This is what we’re stuck with because of a bad AD who signs bad contracts, and a fanbase that is insecure and accepts this is the best they can do. When people talk about the guy changing it pisses me off a bit. Sorry oldbeav, but you’re probably like 90 by now, and if you want to see greatness drop that teachable talk and lay it out the way it is. The coach is very flawed and is never changing. End of story.
Ha Ha, a long way from 90, even though this HC can make ya feel that way.
Teachable?…the motivation comment was meant to be SARC.
Whew.
So pissed he almost swore.
But did he throw his gum?
Why in HELL is Riley so freakin STUPID, BRAINDEAD, etc…..on game management????????
Is he on a tranquilizer or something? There has to be something going on with him. A 6 yr old could do better. This is unbelievable.
And of course, his teams are never ready to play in game one…. How is he rated as a good coach? Is this some kind of bad joke by analysists or other coaches?
They say if you don’t get the joke, you ARE the joke
Did I just see an OSU commercial with a horse running on a treadmill….
QB coach donated their treadmills to the VET MED dept
Same one as last year. The horse has now lost 50 lbs and now longer needs meds for his diabetes.
Obviously Type 2 and not Type 1
As others have said, Garrett is likely calling the offense. So blame him for play calling and time management.
On a non-athletic side, I love these ads for Oregon State that either show no classrooms, or only engineering building rooms. I was a philosophy major, and basically all of my classrooms were trash.
You mean you didn’t love Hovland? Every academic department should have cow chutes.
Wiley Coyote vs Donald Duck in the battle of the borrowed cartoon mascots. Go Coyotes!
I thought it was the Jacks. Anyone on this board should be taking the Jacks
Coyotes……home state. Actually a cool mascot.
Bankers gap cancelation scheme… Correction, win cancelation scheme
Paris Penn apparently did not have any trouble finding “gaps”.
First half was about what I thought, penalties, dropped balls, missed assignments. They should tighten it up this half and pull away.
However, what I didn’t expect was that Senior laden, strength of the team defense to not have improves from last season. They need to put up a shutout in the second half or it might be another L.
Agree. Especially disappointed in the D for the reasons you indicate.
Do they actually practice any football at camp? Looks like first Pop Warner game with a bunch of 10 year olds. Banker is a wanker. JB
Water balloons and slip n slide.
Zimmerman explains to Riley, “…i was in the vicinity”
PSU QB PEnn has 102 yds RUSHING in first half.
On 5 carries.
Haha.
Are you sure it wasn’t a horse shitting on a treadmill? I’m listening on the radio because I don’t have P-12 network. Good God, Beavs are going to be the joke of college football on Week 1 once again?
Seems like the beavers are playing a video game… Where as they have no clue what they are doing and they have the difficulty settings way too high for them.
I mean if we lose to another FCS team I can’t support this team this season nor ones in the future.
Jesus
He can’t help.
Woods is running better.
Inside the 20 this team really sucks.
Definitely PI on that play. Smith was held on his jersey.
RUN THE FUCKING BALL!!!!!!!!!!!!
Get in the red zone, throw 12 times. Get in the red zone, throw 12 times. Get in the red zone…
This is why every receiver is double covered.
GTG at the 9 and, of course, we see three pass plays!
Once again, announcers blasting Riley for abandoning the run.
Riley had a play card in his hand there too. He is probably over riding Garrett in the red zone.
Give up on the run again. So much for the Garrett effect.
The field is condensed so let’s throw the ball into the end zone three straight times. Nice confidence in the run game and offensive line. If Garrett is calling the plays, Riley must have brainwashed him before the game.
Cue up the “We should have run the ball ” comment for the post game presser.
And no criticism by Parker or Wilson of the play calling…..they are instead babbling about how many starters are playing on the kick off team.
That is a legit question.
They seemed impressed by it….I’m thinking it’s kind of scary and speaks to lack of depth,
Agree.
D playing with some fire. Why didn’t the game start this way?
This is what ESPN predicted and most of us expected. Defense dominating.
Parker is saying that Riley was “visibily upset” going into the locker room at halftime……I guess he must have shouted “dadgummit”.
Or he saw Riley changing his colostomy bag.
Parker says things like that to appear objective.
Mannion is going to throw so many INTs once the competition improves. He’s not that good. Cooks made him.
He’s not throwing the bad balls he did last year. Nobody is getting separation. When guys are open the ball is there.
Receivers not getting separation against this level team. Does not bode well for PAC play.
Doesn’t look like he has any confidence in his wideouts. Going to the tight ends is only so useful because they can’t break away.
Thinking the same. Forcing the ball to the TE’s.
He’s had all day to throw and still can’t complete passes vs a D2 team. Not good. The guy said he has time to back a cheesecake in the pocket!
Why does it take us 7 years to get a play, line up, and snap the ball? It’s like once per quarter we do this.
Bad discipline.
They’re playing like they practice. Without a time clock.
11th penalty of the game negates the 5 yd first down play and they can’t get the 3rd down play off and have to burn a time out.
Who caught that? Great grab.
Mannion takes a hit to the knees again.
B2b sacks and the Beavs blow another red zone chance.
WTF??? Saddam Hussein just sacked Mannion….get me out of this hell!
Garbage.
3rd and 30. Amazing.
Drive started inside the Viking 40 and they get 0 points.
Just brutal with all these penalties.
Kostal has to be the best player on the team. He’s insane.
Looks like he will get a lot of work this year.
Run.
The.
Fucking.
Ball.
Can’t.
Does Read get a bonus for Nolan-Lewis’s good play?
Good thing they’re terrible at these flea flickers. Bad timing, bad throws, etc.
Every fucking defensive player has a brutal penalty this game except our corners. Dear lord.
Zimmerman=bench.
Strong=starter.
I wish. Z-man is upper classman and this staff is unlikely to replace him with a younger player.
Perfect angle there by Justin Strong. That was like…the anti-Pankey angle and tackle there.
It is really even considered an angle when you get blocked to the ground and you are trying to make a tackle from your knees? Definition of a “Pankey”,
Maybe he watched the Seahawk tackling video on his own?
I’ve been impressed with Strong today. Defense has played pretty well except for those 3 big QB runs. And the penalties of course.
Yes, Garrett you do have experienced running backs.
Seriously, Riley only has his play card out in the red zone.
And the play calling is only dogshit in the red zone.
Strong takes very good pursuit angles and has nice tackling form.
First clean screen in about an hour, TD Storm Woods.
The Doctor has a huge play there, that RB just pooped himself when he saw 2 LBs in his face.
Score and score again…don’t let up.
That INT might seal it for the Beavs if they get poiints, but this is still a lazy ass ghetto performance.
Zimmerman with a big pick, second of the game.
PureOrange board looking very similar to this board right now. Never thought that would happen. Now if #GoBeavs Twitter would clue in…
TZ with a gift.
Hopefully we look back at this game and say “We sucked the first half, but fixed it in the second.”
That happens sometimes.
Looks like it’s going to be “The Viks sucked and the Beavs kicked enough FG’s to win”,
Is it possible to just give the ball to Woods or Ward three times and perhaps they might be able to gain 10 yards? Am I just insane to want to see that on occassion? Riley is like an impatient 4 year old who wants dessert before dinner.
Obviously not.
All except for red zone offense.
Throw throw throw
How many penalties on this drive…I say 3.
Are these really P12 officials. Oh never mind.
You have proof.
HUGE blown PI. Where are these shitty refs from?
PAC 12 refs?
Refs trying to pacify the crowd with a stupid review of a spot that’s obviously not good?
They should just line up and kick the field goal on first down.
Thanks…that was good!
And they botch a punt return, we recover it. Karma?
Run the damn ball now!
Well, at least the Viks are self-destructing. At least the Beavs aren’t Iowa St…..they got pounded by North Dakota St. 34-14. 5th straight win over FBS opponents.
Fourth and 1, do ya run Ortiz, Ward, even Brown? No, give it to Woods, sheesh!
What would the score be without 4 Viking turnovers?
In fairness what would the score be without about 15 Beavers penalties?
And they shit themselves again. Mannion fumble.
Another red zone fail.
Andrews can’t even hold to keep the guy from getting the forced fumble.
4 turnovers only 13 points….way to make that lower level team pay!
Make that 5 turn overs and 13 points.
Why does PSU have better DEs than the Beavs?
Also, Riley abandons run and lets PSU back in it by force-feeding the passing game. So lame.
It’s easier to recruit to Portland.
Angry fired up! More tweets in the last 20 minutes than in the last 20 months!
Haha.
If I coached a college team and I had a reasonably talented and speedy QB run on every play, could I beat Banker and Riley?
Yes.
Good strip by Doctor.
These feels like a Jay Strichetz game….is he there?
Thanks for jinxing the place kicker dickhole.
Bruce Read pocketed about 10K for that missed chip shot.
That’s it. Banished to TiVo the rest of the season. Terrible red zone offense and I don’t see it getting any better.
smart plan.
Guy wide open in the back of the end zone and throws to the guy short of the 1st down.
I guess other teams do it, but I absolutely hate not throwing to the sticks on 3rd down, it started with Canfield.
I stand corrected 5 turnovers and 13 points.
Holy shit man! Every fcs team is going to come in here thinking they have a shot. They will be paying OSU to come play at Reser!
Only thing that might save the Beavers asses is that PSU is an average fcs team not a great one. Good help us if EWU or Montana come in again.
Sac St was a terrible FCS team.
True
Larry Scott for the whiff.
Meanwhile, down on the farm tree taking care of Davis 45-0.
These refs are horrible.
OSU Football. Sponsored by Div. II Football and Rolaids.
The tackles are a huge concern. Isaac may need to play there when he gets back. Receivers have looked better running the routes back to the qb to get open. Mannion with nervous feet because of the tackles.
Why do people buy season tickets?
Reason to tailgait.
Mannion bought a TON of time with his feet in the pocket, very Manning-esque there.
Seany Football?
FUCK YOU ORTIZ! Trying to choke another red zone TD away.
Mannion not throwing on time.
Sean is making shit reads.
3rd and 4, couldn’t POSSIBLY RUN THE FUCKING BALL.
Worst red zone play calling I have ever seen in my fucking life.
On radio Jim Wilson finally commented….”in the red zone the Beavers haven’t tried to run the football for some reason”.
I think we’ve found our identity. Don’t run the ball enough, flame out in the red zone, kick lots of field goals.
So the same as every season?
MR will try to ice the game by throwing every down.
Owens 5-7 (not his height) is the game mvp. Setting single game record.
Per Jim Wilson, “those who say there is no such thing as an ugly win (should have seen this one)”
So much for getting the backups into the game.
Starters needed the work!
Do we take any solace in the fact that it should have been a 30 or 40 point win based on the stats and hope that the staff can clean things up?
No
So what is the single season record for field goals?
My guess is OSU will set that record this season.
Drive to the red zone. Shit the bed. Kick field goal.
USC looking dominant. Defense flying to the ball and hitting hard. Week 4 will be ugly if we don’t get better, fast.
Go ahead and pencil in a 30 point loss on that one.
