this should not sit well with Beaver fans in here... being how they get really up in arms when I referred to some in the fan base as little brothers.

Oregon cornerback Cliff Harris offered his take on Saturday's Civil War:

"I know it’s a big-time rivalry for Oregon – not just in Eugene but the whole state of Oregon,'' Harris said.

"This is basically like the big brother/little brother backyard brawl. I’m excited and I’m ready for it.''

And ... who's the big brother?

"You know we’re the big brother,'' Harris said.


All I know is he better backup locker room material.

Like I said though... he backs this up and I am fine with it.
 
Cliff likes to run his mouth. The question is this. Will OS be able to do anything about it?
 
lol he is so overrated. makes dumb play after dumb play. he's a ballhawk but eventually he's going to hurt oregon

Is he really overrated, though? The guy doesn't even start outside of an injury.

The kid leads the Pac-10 in passes defended, interceptions, Punt Ret yards/gm, and PR touchdowns. I don't think he is overrated. Inconsistent sometimes, yes.
 
This is Civil War week. This shit happens every year, trash talk between the two teams before CW isn't new.
 
Cliff Harris needs to learn and not fall for the double move. This was the first game any team really used it on us. Foles would fake the short route with a pump fake, Harris would jump, then Criner would take off.

He's by far our best corner, as far as talent is concerned, but needs to mature and learn the position a little more. He's got great speed, fluid hip movement, comes out of his break well, and I've seen him make great open field tackles.

Also has a high vertical as evidenced by this video.

Needs to time his jump better as I specifically remember him jumping too early and barely missing the ball that went for a completed pass.
 
He takes risks, sometimes they hurt, sometimes they come out big.
 
What's wrong with what he said?

He's a confident player who is young and exciting. He has fun on the field and in my opinion, called it like he sees it.

Harris is a sweet cover guy. As far as run stopper, he seems to make the most of his frame, but often resorts to ankle-diving.
 
Unfortunately we don't have James Rodgers. I think James would burn Cliff Harris, but he doesn't have to worry about him. Markus Wheaton doesn't have enough experience to burn Harris yet.
 
Cliff Harris = Asante Samuel

Now what he said was boneheaded, dont think he should have said that.... but the guy is an amazing talent

good comparison... didnt even think of Asante before you metnioned him.
 
I just don't like when players give quotes like this... Just let your playing on the field do the talking, or talk your shit on the field, but leave it out of the papers.

PUHLEEZE!!! (for drama effect)

Let's not act like J. Rogers is God's gift to receivers. When he was playing this year, even against average pass defenders, he's not been impressive.

Against Loui (who gives up 163 pass yards a game - in THAT conference) Rogers had 2 catches for 12 yards.
Against Boise, when it really counted, he had 2 catches for 11 yards.

Wow...

Total suckiness that he's done for the year. I understand Rogers was great in '09, but Criner is having just as an impressive of a year as Rogers had (more so) and Criner had three catches against Oregon this season - and Kitty is not the QB Foles is (on paper).

FYI: Criner had 12 catches for 180 yards and a score against ya'll.

Go Ducks!

Cliff Harris is good, but he's the last guy to be calling anyone "little". The guy is a toothpick. You know the Beavs are going to be looking at every opportunity to knock his head off on Saturday. I hope they knock him out of the game... that'll shut him up. :)

I almost asked when the hell they would have the chance, unless it was a pick. But yeah on Punt Returns.. I could see an "I didnt see the Fair Catch, sorry" on a few occasions after this good point lol.
 
I'd be careful about taking cheap shots on special team players.... the Ducks destroyed WSU after they knocked out Barner.
 
I hope Oregon wins and no one gets hurt or knocked out of the game.
Also hope no one cramps up in that hot and muggy Corvallis heat...
