They're really kicking a field goal? lol

AND THEY MISSED! HAHAHAHAHAAHA
 
2 weeks ago the Ducks were a top-5 team in the nation; tonight, they weren't even a top-5 team in the Pac-12

I think they were too busy reading about the BCS odds and believing their #3 ranking meant anything at all. Kids these days

congrats to the Beavers. I believe the last time they beat USC down there I was 8

According to the Oregonian it’s the first win down there since 1960. That’s nuts.

I'm pretty sure the Beavers have beaten UCLA in Los Angeles a few times since then. But yeah.

A fantastic ass whooping especially considering 100+ yards in defensive penalties, and an epic monkey off the Beavers' backs.

:cheers:
 
Mario getting some mixed reviews on the way he responded to the penalty at the end of the half.

Dude went ballistic!

Hutson got whistled for a similar penalty last season, so there was some history there. And, it should be noted that Hutson played several snaps in the second half last night. I suspect that MC had a follow-up conversation with Hutson at half-time that smoothed things over a bit. I'd also suspect that Hutson never showboats like that again

I'd imagine that Mario going ballistic was steam venting about the Duck performance last night. The Ducks weren't ready to compete in the trenches, on either side of the ball, and that is just about guaranteed to be the quickest way to slip burr's under Cristobal's saddle. He also spent time coaching under Saban and Saban is pretty notorious for going off on players and assistant coaches who piss him off. Of course, Saban has won 6 national championships so it's pretty damn hard to slam his coaching style
 
as a Duck fan, I'll say this:

I'm really impressed with the job Jonathan Smith has done. He's turned recruiting around and has the Beavers on the upswing. And he recognizes the value of zigging when other are zagging. That two-TE offense is effective because it's unusual and defenses have a tough time preparing for it in a week. That 'you-haven't-seen-this-before' advantage can be huge, and his team has the physicality to complement that kind of controlled offense. He's catching lightning in a bottle kind of like how Chip did at Oregon and Harbaugh did at Stanford

and, it's always nice to see USC get humiliated.

but get ready for it Beaver fans: if OSU keeps winning games, then Smith's name will come up whenever there's a major HC opening, in college or the pros

That can happen anywhere. See Chip Kelly.

Good for him if he gets a better opportunity and wants to take it.

Butttttttttttttt

This is his alma mater, he gets to be king here, and would feel pride bringing us out of the shit Andersen had us in. That could keep him here as long as we increase his pay some. Who knows.
 
Wonder how close the Beavs will be to cracking the top 25. The way they've performed since installing Nolan at QB, they absolutely deserve consideration.
 
Hey, he takes what he can get.

given the comments about his marriage, nobody should be surprised he’s a beavers fan. He’s a glutton for punishment!
Boooo, hiss, hiss.
 
Ducks - 10 ASU - 0
Beavs - 7 USC - 0
Both games ended up even more lopsided.
However, the Trojans are better than the Wildcats and the Ducks were at home while the Beavers were on the road. I'd say the Beavers put on the better showing.
