    RipCityDSCPL Could be worse, at least it's not Lonzo.

    Yeah, it's been impressive what he's been able to do recruiting, but will it translate on the field. The only team I am worried about is USC, especially if Darnald proves to be the real deal and not a one year wonder.

    USC is gonna be good, I believe they are the team to beat in the PAC. UW lost a lot of studs to the draft so they will still be good but there will be a learning curve, kinda similar to what Oregon went through from 2014 to 2015, obviously UW is better prepared due to far better coaching though.

    I think UO is going to be better than pundits are predicting.

    Well, if Leavitt can right the ship defensively and Taggart can develop Herbert further, I don't think 8-9 wins is too crazy a possibility/goal. I still think 6 wins is about where we are at before watching us play a down.

    I think UO was worse last year than they should have been. I don't think the hole is as deep as some would believe after last year.

    One would think with better coaching we should have beaten Nebraska, Colorado, and OSU. But like I said, until the defense can prove to make stops or hell even stop a runningback doing a wheel route, I will remain cynical.

    The Beavers lose every year to some no name team. How embarassing for Beaver fans. You guys deserve a medal for sticking with this team.

    They're my boys. Gotta stick with them through thick or thin. Tough loss though.

    I'm gonna take that as a compliment. Can't consider us bandwagon fans.

    That was brutal. I never expected us to get our ass kicked like that.

    Heat + altitude. Not sure how many teams could have survived that.

    Beavs played about how I thought they would the first couple quarters. CSU is supposed to be a pretty good team. Still embarassing looking at the final score and knowing they are in a shit conference.

    Not too worried. If we lose to portland state, the panic button will need to be hit.

    ...same, if the Vikings stroll down to Reser and stomp out a victory then the Beavs are definitely entering doormat status again (now and for the foreseeable future) :sigh:

    ^ Agree. No excuse for coming out and shitting the bed in the 2nd half.

    I like Oregon State coaches....they just can't recruit depth...still cheer em on! Go Beavs! Mike Riley is one of the nicest guys around....has a Terry Stotts calm temperament....I hope the Beavs do well...I like Anderson...he's a passionate coach...really seems to have some fire in him
