If the winner of this game stays in the top 14, they're going to the Rose Bowl.

That's what is on the line.

That Washington loss is going to look worse as the season progresses–even with a win vs Stanford we'll be nail biting.

Here's a Stanford perspective from gomightycard. I usually do yearly interviews with them but passed this year; Cliff fields some questions. I think he's close to the mark on his analysis. The pivotal matchup is the Beav's run game vs the Cardinal D. If the Beavs get 100 yards they win.

One thing to watch for: Stanford's new QB. We always joke around about backups coming in and lighting it up. Let's see if it happens again.

Tough call, but I like Stanford in a close game, even though I think Stanford and their coach are both overrated. I think they'll shut down the run game (not a big Ward fan, Woods isn't himself, and Agnew fumbles) and that'll lead to trouble in the passing game.

24-16

Beavs hoops starts tonight.

Curious to see how the team plays without Cunningham (nervous about this) and to see if Robinson steps up his coaching. Those are the only interesting story lines for me. I won't be watching, so fill me in.

Go Beavs.

First off, chat is back up so if you want to discuss Oregon/USC go here: http://angrybeavs.com/chat

Doing that keeps the game thread comments down.

I thought "swamp ass beav" had a good observation that the Beavs don't play well at night. I agree, they've seemed flat in the night games. I wonder if that is just this year or historical. Personally, I hate sitting around all day waiting to watch the game. Maybe the players get drained sitting around all day waiting to play one.

So, sitting around all day, forecast of rain, another QB change…not sure what to expect. I think the players all knew Vaz was the better QB in practice last week; wondering how much that factored into their effort. They might get an emotional boost from having their guy in there this week (not that they dislike Mannion, I just think players know when a guy isn't ready and shouldn't be on the field).

After factoring in a few days worth of comments and emails, AB is back up. You guys really love the site…feel bad taking it away.

All I can say is no promises in terms of content…going to make threads when I feel like, which might not be often. They probably won't be very in-depth, either, since I am not following sports as much. So, if you guys are fine with this type of thread on a Monday, and a game thread on a Saturday, then we're good. If you expect more, I can't provide that right now. I don't want to be blamed if the site goes down hill–I tried to end it in our prime! You lunatics won't let me.

Anyway, apologies for all the drama. It's hard shutting down outsider art, apparently. Anyway, enough about me or the site. Talk about the Beavs here.
