This has been the weirdest game week for me, haven't wanted to talk football at all:

On one hand I'm afraid they will run us out of Autzen, and I don't even want to think about that. And that is a definite possibility, and more so a probability. On the other hand, I remember how we looked for a half 3 years ago with a worse game day coach and arguably a worse team, so I'm thinking we can be disciplined, run the ball, and shock the world. But then I'd look like a crazy homer. So I have stayed quiet and I am all tore up inside to watch this game tomorrow.

Does this describe anyone else, or is it just me?

OCI, you never answered someone's question about your interesting news...is it good or bad? Also, does it relate to recruiting or the team?

It's about recruiting, and it's not a bad thing. It's also not any form of anything resembling insider information.

If their qb could run some and REALLY struggled throwing the ball Id feel sorta halfway decent about it. But mariota is an assassin with Gooood polished weapons, unfortunately.
 
I know its a little early but I've seen pre game locker room speeches from coach Jones at Cincy. Any chance we will get a look at tomorrow's pregame speech? I get chills thinking about how fired up he will have our team. Greatness trickles down and his passion inspires our team and fans!

Yep, I wouldn't be surprised if our youth and lack of depth shows up big. However, I'm cautiously optimistic that we can pull off an upset.
 
Have y'all ever heard those commercials on sports radio where they're trying to get you(if you're a bettor) to call and pay for their inside info and their "lock of the week" pick? Well, I heard the same one 3 or 4 times this afternoon on 104.5 . Some guy named Jonathan Stone.

Anyways, his" lock of the week" game this week is UT/Oregon. The spread constantly rising all week makes me think his pick is Oregon but who knows (unless you call, I guess). I'm gonna guess he got some inside info about Butch's game plan and is now not only telling paying customers UT will cover the 28 points but they'll beat Oregon straight up. :)

Do y'all think these guys actually have solid inside info? I wouldn't be surprised if they did with all the money pouring in from CFB and the NFL. Betting is a huge business and someone has to be pulling the strings at the top making sure the money keeps coming in. I could see asst coaches, people in the AD, or even refs being paid large amounts of money to sell important info or throw a few extra flags to make sure team A covers the spread vs team B.
 
It might be the beer...or ludes...or both, but I think we have a chance tomorrow :loco::superman::neener2:

There would have to be a lot of inside info to make it a lock for me. Some combination of the following:

1. Mariotta and Mamba are missing... last seen heading down to Mexico with a bottle of tequilla in an old 87 Corrola.

2. Food poisioning/flu affecting the entire Oregon team.

3. CP and Bray decided to suit up under false names, wearing dark face shields to conceal their identities... just for giggles.

Give me 2 out of the 3, and I'm in.
