Re: Oregon...
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Wow, positive comments about Oregon from a WASHINGTON fan? We MUST have looked good [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] [/ QUOTE ] I like the NW Pac 10 teams. Both Oregons and Washingtons. I hate USC and UCLA. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [/ QUOTE ] That's an enlightened viewpoint for you to take, and I hope you know it's in no way personal when I tell you that I still hate your Huskies, and would keep Kenny Wheaton in my prayers if I weren't an atheist [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [/ QUOTE ] Oh, there's alot of hate both ways. My roommate can't stand Oregon. Hates them with a passion. About as much as I hate ND. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Even with the Ducks fans idiocy today(I know that isn't the majority, just a bunch of morons) I still like the team. I like Belotti, too. I read some interviews this week with him and he came off very well. I'm kind of indifferent(still lean to the Dawgs) when the NW teams play each other. But if a NW team has a shot at the big one, go for it. NW teams tend to get the least respect in the Pac. b |

[/ QUOTE ] True that, except that for most of my life it's seemed to me that Washington is the exception to this rule. Now if WSU has a shot, then by all means I'm pulling for them, and as long as it's not Civil War weekend, ditto for the Beavs [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] My ideal football season consists of Oregon as undefeated national champs, Beavers 11-1 and winning a BCS bowl, and the Huskies going winless, and for that matter scoreless. I won't go so far as to wish injury upon them, though back when Neuweasel was the coach I may not have been so kind... |

With ND being embarassed in the Fiesta Bowl. Neuweasel? Hey, NW championship! LOL b |

Re: Oregon...
bernie -
sorry to hear about the Oregon fans; I guess you were sitting near the students who rode up in the magic buses? In the mid 90s I was impressed by UW's ability to play the Miami's. Before USC got rolling, and WSU had Price, OSU had Ericson, the NW had become the strength of Pac-10 and that's great by me. BobJoeJim, I'd say they had a tough schedule: Washington lost its fifth straight, all to teams ranked in the top 12 at one point this season. |

[/ QUOTE ] Including the current #1, the former #1, and a team currently earning first place votes (well... one first place vote at least). Combined record of the five teams they've lost to: 33-4. Plus they gave 6-1 Boise their only loss. The one weak opponent, 2-6 Syracuse, they beat 42-12 on the road. And in four of the five losses they either had the lead or were tied at some point in the second half. I would love to hear someone try to argue that any other 2-win team is better, I would laugh my ass off. They might be better than any 3-win team out there too... |

Re: Oregon...
You could almost make an argument for North Carolina as a better 2-win team than UW. Their schedule was ranked 3rd going into Saturday (a bye) and their last 5 games were against UVa, USF, VT, Miami, and South Carolina (30-8 combined). The loss to East Carolina in the 2nd game kind of kills the argument though.
And actually, the best 3-win team in the country's probably Stanford, and even with the logic chain of Stanford > USC > UW, I think you'd have to say the Huskies are better than the Cardinal right now. |

Washington played great (at least on offense). Locker looks like the real deal. His passes were great, the running even better. [/ QUOTE ] Washington did play very well and they are a much better team than what their record shows. Clearly Locker has much talent and will be great and the Huskies will be a contender in a year or two. And all teams, especially in college sports, have moronic or ill-mannered fans. It comes with the territory. With Cal at 2 loses Oregon can control their own destiny and win the Pac-10. Something that is a real possiblity. -Zeno, Duck Fan |
