I'm still mad I had to watch Michigan celebrating a half hour into the Oregon game. I'm not the only one either.
I agree with you on local coverage but the outcome of the Michigan-MSU game ruined my afternoon. I turned off football and pouted the rest of the day. Skipped a Halloween party too. The crew calling the game were absolutely fawning over State the whole second half and then turned it into love fest for Mel Tucker at the end. Barf.
At least your Ducks won, even if you did have to miss part of it due to idiotic network practices on local broadcasting.

FOX did that all morning Sparty this and Sparty that

They even went so far as to bring on a psychic who predicted MSU would win

I spent my afternoon in a funk as well

It was a win but not unexpected. Oregon has the next 4 games with PAC 12 teams. Any of whom could surprise with an upset.

Lots of football left to play for all teams.

This is when it starts getting good.

Wow, MSU ranked 3 and Oregon ranked 4 in first CFP rankings. Cincinnati not getting the love.
Oregon's rated higher than they should be. We all know that these ratings have more to do than just the quality of the team. Oregon is Nike's baby and Nike has a lot of clout in College Football. Oregon is always going to be ranked higher than they probably should be. I bet the lobbying going on behind the scenes rival that which goes on in Congress. Thousands of phone calls, meetings, etc... A loss here and a win there by any of the top teams and everything changes.

I'm just disappointed that the Oregon/Washington game is on at 4:30 pm PT. I do all the cooking and the lady will want to be eating dinner right in the middle of the game. I like the noon games.

Noles host NCState at 1500 central time. ACC network has the game. Of course it will be on at same time as Mexican GP Quali. Will have to see if there are enough (Dish) receivers to go round.

I had to look up "Mexican GP Quali". Racing isn't very big here in the PNW. Portland did have an Indycar event recently though. There used to be races quite often years ago. Used to go see the Funny Cars and Dragsters back in the late 70's early 80's. Apparently NASCAR is coming this next June.

Man I was celebrating early; started doing some yard work in the 3rd quarter, look at the score around 3pm-4pm just to see the end stats and thinking we won - flew outta my chair. We managed to somehow lose that game ?

Doesn’t surprise me though- McNamara is a game managing QB, efficient but can’t throw a deep ball. I don’t think Jimmy has had a decent QB since he’s been there. Or at least a top talent.

The solid run game and good defense is what keeps us going. McNamara just isn’t clutch.

Love me some NASCAR. Luckily I’m located in SoCal where we are home to a track.
Usually go to practice on Fridays as that’s a great day to get in without spending a ton of time at the track.

Hoping Denny Hamlin finally gets his overdue title this year.

Portland has a terrible track for NASCAR.

Ducks offense looks like they've been smoking too much weed. What a poor performance. They better ramp it up.

Well Oregon beat Washington like they should have. It wasn't a convincing win but it was a win and they did control the game. Should have put up more points. Oregon doesn't have a very good passing game like they have in the past with some of their quarterbacks. The guy can run though. His passing game sucks.

Michigan lost. I'm happy for that.

Still lots more football left.

FIFY :)
Ahhhh! I am stoned and half in the bag but this momentarily freaked me out even though I was watching UM Indiana game while at the bowling alley with the teens. State lost but UofM rolled. Calling MSU “Michigan” would be like calling Oregon “The Beavers”.

You sound stoned. :mrgreen: :peace:

Anyway, Oregon is once again up there.

3 games they should win.

Washington State
Utah

And
Oregon State which will be their toughest game. It's the Oregon Rivalry. The Civil War. Oregon State will bring their A game.

If the Ducks win out they're in the CFP. But then they will face some serious teams. I hope they're up for the challenge. It might just be that year. Fingers crossed.
