Beavers chop Cardinal wood and build a dam

OSU beat up on the hapless Stanford Cardinal yesterday 30-7. I don't want to beat my chest over this victory because I'll probably be working for a Stanford grad any day now. Stanford's high IQ couldn't help them in this game. OSU was too physical.

Chris Johnson's amazing catch:


Here are some highlights:

  • OSU finally won a game in which they didn't score first this season.
  • OSU's defense played outstanding-Doggett was a playmaker again.
  • Yvenson Bernard rushed for 168, but should've had 230. Nice to see solid production though.
  • Brandon Powers was the leading receiver with 6 catches and 1 TD-apparently the OSU offensive coordinator saw the same I saw last week-B. Powers is a producer and needs to be fed.
  • Matt Moore did not turn the ball over.

Here are some lowlights:

  • OSU's RED ZONE OFFENSE IS PATHETIC! Serna luckily converted his kicks, but OSU needs to be way more efficient inside the red zone if it wants to beat Oregon and Hawaii.
  • Joe Newton had ZERO catches.

Here's the recap and box score info.



Next Week is the Ducks, and they got pounded by Arizona yesterday. Arizona is probably the second best team in the conference behind USC right now. The Wildcats have a great Defense and defense wins games and championships. Thank god OSU played them earlier in the season and got a win.
