Game Thread Happy Thanksgiving! The Oregon Vs Oregon State Civil War game thread

It’s been close to 6 years since I bet on them

 

Holy Toledo. I guess Oregon is back in the national stratosphere

 

And this is why I said I don’t mind scheduling Oregon state and keeping the rivalry game

they simply have no chance

and as time goes on, the gulf will just get wider

 

Ha! You’re ruthless

 

Not really, it's just cold hard numbers. Going forward the Ducks will be receiving 4 to 5 times as many TV dollars for their program as the Beavers. It would take gross mismanagement not to make that advantage real on the field

STOMP

 

Oh, I don’t disagree. But it’s kicking beav fan while they’re down. I have a lot of family that is beav alumn and it’s a tough pill for them to swallow

 

I know, I hate it. I actually hope Oregon scheduling them helps to keep them more competitive somehow.

 

Everybody did their job

 

Back to rooting for both the Beavers and Ducks.

 

I have B2B work days in Corvallis next week. It will be the most depressed town in Oregon. This looked like a catastrophic thrashing by the Ducks.

 

the Ducks QB is a lefty. Clearly the Beavers were not prepared for plays on the opposite side of the field. I blame the OSU coaches.

 

I’ve seen worse.

 

Not necessarily kicking them while they’re down
I think it is mutually beneficial
Probably a decently easy W for the Ducks most years
And good for the economics in Corvallis when the ducks come to town

 

You get to a point where you get numb.

 

are we talking football or marriage?

 

The blazers?

 

I think OSU will be just fine in the new Pac8. My reasoning is success breeds success and they will have a legit shot every year to compete and contend in the new league. They will have an opportunity to become the next Boise State by recruiting guys with chips on their shoulders that are 3-2 star players. Consistent winning and contending will create a new vibe and certainly help their marketing. I understand the finances won't be there as compared but with an increase effort with boosters to jump on the band wagon, they absolutely could participate in some nil deals. Potentially there could be a new synergy around the program as the league continues and who know's what will happen in 10 years or so with college football.

 

The Beavers should schedule more games in Portland.

 

I hope not. That would actually get me to go to fewer games.
