Let’s hear predictions for the Beavs in the CWS.

Since they’re #1 overall and having a historic season, the Beavs will have a target on their back every inning this post-season. When you’re a marked man like that, even teams like Yale and Holy Cross become dangerous in a short series. I’m not saying those teams will beat the Beavs, but the Beavs will be under constant attack from everybody, and added with the nerves of the post-season, it could be a recipe for an early exit. I see Vanderbilt as an early threat. Maybe Stanford in the super regional…but since they’re marked any team can get them. Very curious to see how Jake Thompson does…

Also, on the Petras signing. I like it. His WRs are wide open in the film, so it’s hard to gauge much, but he moves okay and has a nice delivery.

Go off topic, etc.

Baseball: Beavs vs Abilene Christian

172

The four game series gets underway at 5:35 today. All games can be seen on the school produced stream.

How’d the Beavs end up with this series?  Lundeberg at the GT has a piece which explains.  An excerpt: “When I found out we had the bye this weekend, I just got on the phone and started calling everyone,” said associate head coach Pat Bailey, who handles the team’s scheduling. “I hope as long as I’m here, we never have the late bye again.”

Should be great weather, GO BEAVS!

Tyner/O-Line/General Thread

8

Angry’s still out and the last post was nearing 300 comments, so thought I’d put up a clean new general thread.

Will have a separate thread for the baseball series so that doesn’t get cluttered with off topic conversation.

Something interesting I read from Sedge today was the possibility of Tyner playing for 2 years at Oregon State, as he applies for a medical hardship.  Wouldn’t that be something if he played for Oregon State this year and then grad transferred back to Oregon for his final season?

Also football related, it feels like the glaring hole on offense right now is a starting caliber offensive lineman for the right side.  We currently have 13 guys on the roster, and GA mentioned wanting to bring in one more guy this summer. Seems like grad transfer would be the likely route to make that happen, but who is currently available?

Feel free to talk about whatever you want if football bores you…

Hey Beavlettes, I will be gone (for business, not pleasure, unfortunately) the entire week starting tonight.

Try to behave and all that. OldBeavs and NiceBeav, feel free to make any topic you wish while I’m gone. If the spam protectors blocks anyone, sorry, but I won’t be able to approve you until Saturday morning.

Go Beavs.
