OSU's defense will not be as good as last year

I am glad that OSU's new offensive players are balling, but our defense is looking weak. The Rodgers brothers are showing excellent skills this fall, and Moevao is deliver good passes. The O-line looks like it is still a guessing game. So does the whole team. Who I am I kidding.

There are a lot of players nursing injuries which bothers me. Jeremy Perry needs to get his act together and start practicing. He is stupid to think NFL scouts will ignore fall camp performance. Perry is not the only one. There are others. Our defense needs help.



The way the team is performing this camp is positive over all. We could be fun to watch. WTF. Last year was a lot different.

Good news- OSU has ballers on both sides of the ball. Remember Al "My hits melt you like" Afalava. The level of talent on OSU's skill positions is obvious, minus the QB. Our QB is still a question mark in my mind. I don't care how much weight Moevao lost in the offseason.

Here is an example of the kind of "game changing" damage Al can do:




Our kicking game is a complete question mark, actually check that. I can say it sucks. Punters and PK's are suspect.

Defense and Special Teams wins championships. Remember this.

This reminds me of the 2000 team minus the complete obscure QB leading the team. We have obvious strength at WR and RB. Perhaps Victor Butler could be the next DeLawrence Grant.

I can't wait for Stanford. I hope we crush them 38-7.

Stanford Preview

Will OSU beat Stanford? I think so. Why? Because Defense and Special Teams wins game early in the season.....assuming the OSU QB's don't throw 5 INT's.......

Stanford's Defense and Special Teams are not as good as OSU's. Hopefully.

I am not going to dig in, Building the Dam did a great analysis.

OSU and Nike respond to Beaver Nation demands

70% of this blog's readership voted to change the Beavers uniforms over the last 6 months.

Thanks to your votes- Nike and OSU decided to change last years uniforms to a new retro style.

Kudo's to the Beaver Nation who read this blog religiously. You made a difference.

Anything is better than last years sports bra's. Read the press release



PS- I have no proof that anyone at Nike or OSU actually read my blog or formed any opinion from my prior rants about how lame OSU's uniforms looked last year.

Nothing worse

My heart and prayers go out to Todd Lamar Doxey's family and friends. He was a U of O defensive back who died yesterday after diving off a bridge into a river in Oregon. Utterly tragic.

As much as I rail on U of O on this blog, I consider some ex-U of O grads good friends. Football razzing is just that. It's meant in good fun. In the locker room and on the field we all talked shit, this blog is meant in the same vein.

I am a parent, and the thought of losing my son at Todd's young age is horrifying.

OSU loses a Sr DB and gains a HS Sr???

Bryan Payton was dismissed from the OSU football team, which is bad news for the Beavers. I have no idea what Brian was thinking, but he just blew it. He didn't just blow up his football career, he blew his whole future as a productive citizen. I am not sure, but I think he is no longer a student of OSU. Damn shame.

What an idiot.......

Here is some bullshit propaganda about what a great kid Bryan is or was....

OSU announced the signing of a Jr/Sr QB from Stockton. He looks good but damn, can't we wait to see how he does his senior yr before offering a scholie?
