Somewhere in the neighborhood of 21 1/2.

Dang, that seems like a no-brainer to me!
 
No brainer if it was in Corvallis. Not so sure about it when the game is down south.

GO BEAVERS!
 
OSU matches up interestingly with USC. USC seems like they will have a problem with Quizz as he gets lost behind his linemen.

But being that it is in SC, I think USC by around 17. I won't rule anything out though, OS, again, is better now than at the beginning of the year. As an Oregon fan, i'd like to see OS beat USC because then we could lose to USC and win out and still make the Rose Bowl. :)

But if USC wins, they move up in the BCS rankings and which would help you more if you beat them. Right?
 
I'm all for The Beavs winning this one. would be GREAT for their program.. and pretty darn good for us as well!

Correct. But I do think Oregon will lose at least once in Pac-10, and most likely to USC, so if they lose here they are 2 games back which gives us breathing room.

The SOS thing matters, but I don't see us making it to the title game, tbh. (surprise, lol)
 
Who cares what the score ends out to be . . . let's just hope the Beavs beat up on the Trojans and ding them up enough so the Ducks can roll Sc next week. :D

basically how I see it.
 
Facemasks dont count if you are wearing Crimson?
 
1. Really proud of the Beavers for keeping this thing close despite losing Quizz for an entire quarter.

2. Ticky tack holding calls against Oregon State are the rage but James can nearly get decapitated on a late hit by Mays and nothing.
 
Well I'll say this...

1) OSU put up a heck of a fight but shot themselves in the foot in the first half.

2) USC is definitely beatable. If I were a UofO fan I'd be licking my chops over next week. I really wasn't all that impressed w/ Barkley (the USC QB). He has a nice throwing motion but he's susceptible to the pick often.
 
If I were a UO fan I'd be scared that USC got a scare this week. Sleepy giant turned into angry and rattled giant is not a friendly giant.

one thing I learned last year... they are a LOT more pissed off after a loss.. than an emotional win.

Possibly, but two emotional wins in a row and an almost 4th quarter collapse after we missed Quizz for the entire second quarter may wake them up.

I don't know what to think of Barkley - he's passes really well and has a good feel for the game but I think I may hate him due to Mike Patrick and Craig James.

Possible.. but we'll see. And Barkley right now is a lot better than most true freshman QB's but he still is that, a True Freshman, he has a nice feel for the game but is inconsistent like a Freshman can be. He will have a lot of hardware before he moves in though. But yes he can be hateable because of Patrick and James lol. Anywhoo good fight tonight Beavers, definitely a scrappy team with a TON of heart. Something to build on for rest of year.
 
I didn't expect much this year from the Beavers because of the rebuilt offensive line and secondary, and combined with the hard Pac-10 road schedule. Hopefully next year we get USC/Cal/UO at home even though I believe we have a road game against Boise State; but that'd be a nice home schedule with a more experienced offensive line, plus senior James and junior year Quizz. As long as Katz is able to perform adequately as a sophomore. I was real pleased with the game tonight even though the secondary got burned a few times and KK decided he was going to try to kill Barkley.

That defense for USC does look a bit overrated though, it'll be interesting to see how LaMichael runs on them.

Edit: I decided to rename Barkley when I was tired.

You guys have a hell of a team down in Corvallis.

Very impressed how you guys played punch for punch with USC, and if not for two mistakes and missed opportunities you guys would have won.

I found myself somewhat voting for you after Quizz got his helmet ripped off. That pissed me off.

fixed :)
 
Ah, it was James? Thought it was Quizz. Either way, that was fucked up.
 
...I was at the game...a few things to note;

-USC has the weakest fans ever [err quietest anyway]!!!
-their video replay "JUMBOtron" is out-dated and SMALL [shocking for having all of that sucess & $$$]!!!
-at least the concessions were very impressive, to say the least [except for the prices, as always]!!!

***I won A LOT of money betting on the Beavers yesterday...+20 pts was a no-brainer to me!!! Watching the game in person, with virtually no replays [not only is the MINItron terrible, they showed a total of 4 replays all game], it felt like the Beavers were the BETTER TEAM!!!***

...1a] he would have caught that pass that Stevenson dropped for the potential TD :sigh:

...2a] you could tell that the Pac-10 refs did not want a USC loss, as sad as that sounds :tsktsk:
 
Also I know I may be late to the game and OSU fans already know this.. but I love love LOVE the way Quizz runs the football. He runs with such force, and such a low center of gravity when he gets low. I always knew he was good, but my eyes were def opened even more about that kid. Kudos to Mikey Riley and co for finding both of them. But Quizz is amazing.
