Hey Beaver Nation,
Just want to say I am thankful that the Ducks and Beavers are playing the game this week.
As a Duck fan I'll just say that the OSU strengths on offense match against the most glaring weakness on the Duck defense: Running the Ball / Defending the Run
I expect a close game.
Enjoy Thanksgiving. Be safe. Be well.

I guess fear can bring out modesty. Toss the coin in the air - either team can win. Do I feel bad for WSU and UW this week? Yeah. But I think my feelings are more about that our teams are playing and less about them. Something I forgot to mention: Beavers return game could be a big factor in your favor. Champ on kickoff returns has been good and Ducks coverage has been average at best. I would not be surprised to see great field position for OSU after a kickoff - heck a TD on a kickoff return might happen for OSU. Dang. My anxiety is rising the more I think about this game. I think Beaver Nation might enjoy this more than me.

Just glad to be playing some football this season ...even if the season is abbreviated. The Civil War...it will always be the Civil War to me is a special game that congers up great memories for me. Hope it's a great game that goes down to the wire and both teams come out of it healthy. Would love to see a classic! Go Beavs!

Enjoy Thanksgiving. Be safe. Be well. I am worried about your typical strength of setting the edge vs. our frequent weakness this season of holding the edge. I also don't like how our defense has performed against elite receivers, and you have speed at receiver to export this weakness. It should be a great coaching chess match of exploiting/hiding each team's weakness.

I root for two teams every week. The Beavs, and whoever is playing phil knight university. They are everything that is wrong with college athletics.
While living in NV my wife and I (both OSU alum) were asked why we were wearing Beavers gear, and not ducks gear? We explained we went to OSU, and the ducks are a bitter rival, and that we wouldnt be caught dead in green and highlighter colors.......this person basically thought if you were from Oregon you must be a ducks fan......barf!
I've already told my kids they can go to college anywhere they want (they were 9 and 6 at the time) except phil knight U.
My wife's uncle is a quacks football season tix holder.....when the quacks lost to ARZ back when they were ranked like 2 or 3 with chip, and Mariota, he lost it and said he was cancelling his season tix!!
I could go on, and on......
