You know this very topic gives me hives. Here's how it goes: "If Washington is really good we will look EVEN BETTER when we beat them." Then they scratch out a fluke win against our injured quarterback. Or they injure him themselves! And they get a bunch of national acclaim, and we spend a cold night in Shreveport. I'm having none of it! The Huskies MUST LOSE at every possible turn against every possible team. They must threaten to be worse than their 0-12 team and end up in the Big Sky. That is my wet dream!

What? Is The BIG scheduling games to realize the biggest profit, without regard to the in-person experience or the viewer who wants to go to bed early? When has that ever happened before? To @DrHilarius, I wish I was within a two-hour drive of you. I would take those tickets off your hands so fast and yell myself hoarse at the game. Go Ducks!

I wondered if someone here would think I really didn't know the name of that Canvas Story Told in Gray and Beige, I probably had more good, clean fun picking on WAZZU as anyone we played.

...or whatever they call that place up there. I can't decide what to think about the teams in the Pac??? Finally, I decided to root for San Jose State because it will wreck Husky Honk to think they lost to a team that loses to the Spartans. Great game, though.

I want to see the newly engaged Mr Gabriel look calm and composed in the pocket and more like the QB I thought we were getting when we signed him. Also, running lanes.

Tell you what. I'm usually Mr. I Don't Know if We're Good in these little contests, and maybe that is holding us down. I'm trying something new: Oregon 37-3 3 turns 4 sacks 311 passing yards. Time to go Powder River on some smelly Beavers.

I would say we look like the 13th-ranked team in the nation. I hope we aren't the second-ranked team in the state a week from now.

Oregon 35-21 2 TOs 2 Sacks 360 Passing Yds.

If the doctor said I should go to the hospital during this game I would have gone straight to the morgue. Good grief, fellas! Take some pride in your work.

I am the same except no part of me wants to feel sorry for the pitiful Huskies and I want to kick them in their whiny Jerk faces. Other than that, what you said.

And it is too cold this time of year to have cold cockles

You know how to find me, friend. Maybe I will find some people in Mayberry who want a planned giving workshop and will pay your expenses to come. That is once I find Mayberry. Always our best, Fishy.

I do believe, but I have to say that the last four losses being Washington, Oregon State, Washington, and Washington have shaken me to my core! CDL MUST get past Kalen DeBoer or wait for the latter to go to the NFL. I don't know if I have that many years left. But I do believe...

I feel the same way about KD at ASU, clear down to being on the receiving end of a few sacks. Oh, except for the wishing him well part. (Yes, I am struggling to climb out above the clouds.)

I was around in the 80's, but I refuse to waddle around in that mess. This team had the right stuff to make the playoffs, and they failed spectacularly. Then they had the right stuff to make the conference championship game and they failed miserably. I will watch the Holiday Bowl, unless a Yellowstone that I haven't seen is on. #tiredoflosingthebigones #tiredofcoacheswhobolt

"Like Chip Kelly who came from New Hampshire, (his alma mater) to Oregon." Which is why, even with youthful flash since him, Chip is still my favorite all time Duck Head Coach. I am so tired of being a stepping stone. I want to do the stepping, on other teams' heads. I've been so heartsick since last Saturday night. I have laid in bed and wondered if this whole college football thing was worth it. I have my Giants, and I have my 49ers. Why do I subject myself to the annual torture of Oregon football? We get pretty good, even though we went 0-2 this year, and boom, some lying sack who drooled all over us when he got hired, jumps to a team facing sanctions. I agree 1000% with Mic. We need the next Chip Kelly!

I read this week that his draft grade is as a 3-4th rounder. Good luck to him in any case.

Utah 44 Oregon 17 1 turnover created 1 sack 181 passing yards

I'll be there with you by next Wednesday/Thursday. Tonight it's hard to see much of a point to the rest of the regular season since the Rose Bowl has been so diminished. But, I'll get there. Not as high as I was this morning, but I'll be back up...in a diminished sort of way.

Oregon 60-7 4 turnovers created 7 sacks recorded 389 passing yards

This is a hard one. I can't allow OSU anything except for a root against UW. So both of them are out. Utah, as many before me have said, because Whittingham seems to do it the right way. Stanford, because the entrance requirements are like Sisyphus and his rock. WSU, because the enemy of my enemy is my friend on at least one Saturday weekend in the fall. Besides, could you recruit to The Papoose, or whatever they call that place? It's like Corvallis and West Texas had a baby.

I look forward to seeing many of their weapons chosen in the first round.

Good article. Made me smile, snort, and chuckle. After I read it I thought I should tell you that "Rich Brooks Field" is named after a Beaver, but I see that's already been done. I know, it's just the field and not the whole darned stadium.

Gah, I botched the punch line. That's why I'm too old to do this anymore. Obviously, it should have read Stanford at Washington. If there's a God in Heaven the Trees find a way. Now, if you will pardon me I will go stick my head in the oven.

UCLA @ Colorado: Boo and...Who? Oregon @ Washington State: What do they call that place? The Papoose? Arizona @ California: "In front of a crowd consisting of family members... USC @ Oregon State: My Lord, if ever both teams could lose. Utah @ Arizona State: "Hey! The coaches office is empty! And he's the only one with keys to the stadium! Utah @ Stanford: If there is a God in Heaven, the trees find a way.
