There are ~4 possible scenarios: : : 4) Sac State / EWU / Montana / <name your nightmare here> - the board is flooded with Mike Riley reminiscing, and pitchforks sell out in the Willamette Valley. I count the days until WBB starts so I can enjoy a well-coached Beaver team. I consider this possibility to have low likelihood......just because by my quick count, there are a lot of days until WBB season starts. : I don't agree with the grouping of EWU in when we talk about these terrible games. That team was damn good! With a great qb as we now know. And a receiver that is making waves in his NFL debut. They were good, no matter what division. Agreed - I was summarizing the scenario of "losing to a team from a 'lower' division" by lumping all of those teams as one, but that shorthand had limitations as you point out..... I am interested in the CU-CSU game tonight to see if there is a chance CSU ends up in that "dang good team, no matter what division" category. I hope so, but fear what it says if CU romps. Go Beavers!

OK. I lied. Originally, I wrote that win or lose I want to see the Beavers play 60 minutes of football. And basically, they did that. They didn't quit and they fought all the way to the final whistle.
But it's not enough. We should have lost today's game. The "1" in the WIN column is a lie. (This is another example of why we can't just look at wins and losses.) PSU flat out played harder and smarter than the Beavers. And that was really hard to watch, especially knowing that our opponents will play even harder and smarter than PSU.
Last year, we ended the year on an upswing. But this year, it's almost like we're starting from scratch again. And we shouldn't be.
I hope to see more improvement in the next game. But I'm afraid it's going to be a long season.

Well, I wanted a shutout......only took 3 plays to dash that dream.
This defense is bad. (And that's the polite vero)
Go Beavs

A 29-14 win. Anything less and Andersen should be fired. 35-32. The offense passed 29 with 1:08 left. Thoughts?
