You do get that these things are worked out many MANY years ahead right? If you make a philisophical change in how you want to schedule OOC right now today, you wouldn't see much for at least 5 years. Not trying to schedule against upper level talent anyway.
I'm kind of surprised at the timing and details surrounding it. It's not like OSU is going to be bringing in a big name/hot upandcoming coach. But at the same time I guess it's not like their season is gonna get worse with an interim coach either...Gary Andersen agrees to part ways with Oregon State.
So far news of Andersons departure hasn't impacted the line for their game this week. It's Colorado -12.5 right now on most boards. So the bettors are not factoring it much into their game right now.
when the Rutgers deal was made, Rutgers was coming off a 6-7 season with bowl.
No, but it is also true that Woodward and Sark were trying to hedge toward easier schedules to make it easier for them to look better and it is now biting us squarely in the ass.
To be honest, it won't hurt the ducks to have a lower slate while they are building. It doesn't really hurt until you are top 10 caliber. Unless you are talking about impact on recruiting (likely fairly minor) and what your fans think of it.
I know and Texas A&M prob would roll Oregon next year if it happened. but in rebuilding I would still rather see a Illinois or Rutgers or Kansas on the schedule than Bowling green and San jose state
Yes on BYU latley but Notre dame is not like playing Chattanooga or Mercer and always at home
Macon, Georgia.I like how Fresno keeps coming up, but I swear Bama played them as well???
Hell we can't all play Mercer.......... Where the hell is Mercer???
