They had 7 in a row but still. Or were you combining some of #yourCatz wins in there too?Mosster47 said:

Yeah, it's safe to say I find nine wins unacceptable when you're the only program west of the Rockies that seems to care about football. -
Full blown AIDS it is then, Mr. Terminal Cancer Superiority Guy.whatshouldicareabout said:

That Alamo was embarrassing on many levels. It was the only time in 25 years of following this team, I laughed when they lost. I actually started to root for TCU late in the 3rd quarter when they showed a shot of Pellum on the sideline. I realized then, a loss like that would send him packing. By mid 4th quarter though, I realized after the 47th ground ball snapped by our backup center, that if this coaching staff can't even get our 2nd string center to shot gun snap the ball or go under center, then how can I expect them to actually hire a decent coordinator. I realized, it was over.
I opened up the scotch cabinet, poured a 12 year Glendronach, and watched in cynical laughter, as the final 8 minutes and overtime confirmed my observations.
Oregon football was diagnosed with terminal cancer on January 16th, 2013. It officially died on January 2nd, 2016.

Is there anyone else in the Brooks-Bellotti-Kelly lineage that Oregon fans irrationally pine for as Slingblade's replacement--a green and yellow Tuiasosopo if you will?

I don't think so. Our main irrational hope is that somehow, someway, Chip comes back.wobidbus said:Is there anyone else in the Brooks-Bellotti-Kelly lineage that Oregon fans irrationally pine for as Slingblade's replacement--a green and yellow Tuiasosopo if you will?

No one has ever actually wanted a long term staff guy. Bellotti was brought in from the outside for a few years. Everyone with on ounce of sense wanted Bellotti gone and Tedford to take over. Ted was the original Chip. Chip was of course an outside guy. Slingblade is an outsider too.AZDuck said:

Other than Campbell those guys that have been there forever are replaceable. Greatwood was the D-Line coach until Zoumer retired. Then the next day he was the O-line coach.
People think that no upward trajectory forever means progress. Pellum showed why no one else ever wanted him.
Slingblade has at most two more years to win the conference and the powers that be will can everyone and start fresh. -

Oh fucking please get that retarded OC out of Raider nation back to the ducks where he can properly fuck things up there. He's as bad as UW's fuctarded beaver with those bubble screens that worked 5 years ago in collegeTheGlove said:

Helfrich is doing a good enough job of that alreadyDuckHHunterisafag said:

This. All the Tequilla analysis that has been thrown at that game isn't worth the shit I just took 5 minutes ago. That game was a coaching clinic film of the importance of the center and QB to an offense. If that - those two people - breaks, there aren't enough skill guys on the planet to overcome it.Mosster47 said:
By the end of year two there weren't two guys in the program that could snap the ball to the QB or throw a five yard slant? Pretty fucking pathetic.AZDuck said:That game did help us excise one of the main tumors. Helfrick is going to sink or swim the next two seasons.
Their D was a sieve last year. Yes. But they were playing well for quite a while in that game, and even a good defense, which again they weren't, will give eventually if they're on the field too long. And that's what happened. Period. End of story.
The center fiasco was not lethal as long as Vaj was in the game. As he showed in several games, including the nail biter at ASU, he was athletic enough to pick the ball up off the ground and still make something happen. Lockie simply wasn't. That little fucking problem on 98% of the snaps exceeded the margin of error you had with Lockie. It was too much for him ... it would be too much for even an average QB, and Lockie is well below that for D1a. I'm not sure how Browning would handle having to pick the ball up off the ground on every fucking snap.
Sure, that's all on the coach to have people who can do what needs to be done. But it also tells me, if they can fix that, the program is not in the death spiral that everyone imagines.
Frankly, it would be better if they were in a death spiral. That's when the boosters who give a shit come out and apply pressure. I don't think Knight is going to move to get Helfire fired if he continues to bring in 9 and 10 win seasons, even though he'll never get them to the pinnacle. -
One of the best kept secrets in the Pac 12: Beavers have as good an annoying-fan quotient as anybody in the conference. Just like somehow Nebraska has always had this reputation for a clean program and classy fan base, when in fact neither is true, people think of the OSU group as this harmless, well-adjusted group of Willamette Valley hillbillies that have a healthy perspective on things. The fuck they do.haie said:Mosster47 said:

I've been to cfb games in Columbus, Miami, Tally, Alabama, Norman, Seattle, Dallas, Eugene, Philly (don't ask), Boston and Knoxville. Obnoxiousness quotient winner, without competition, is Columbus. It's still like 1988 there. Eugene wasn't great either, but I've experienced worse. And two places I experienced worse were Corvallis, and Montlake when we? you? they? were playing the beavs. Mind you, this was when OSU was a perennial 1 win team, which makes it all the more spectacular. I have actually run into THAT guy. Closest I've come to getting into an actual scrap since junior high school, which frankly is stunning to me, was when THAT guy came into my fucking tailgate in the Montlake parking lot being THAT guy.
Fucking frat boys. Just a bundle of obnoxious.
