Game Thread: Oregon Ducks @ Washington Huskies

Check out the sign my daughter and I just made for the game. Well actually its a bedsheet, so it will be HUGE!!!!

Isn't that the stud TE you guys had as a starter? Why the hell would he leave while your team is on such a run?

Believe he has had differences with Helf since day 1. Also upset with playing time that was promised to him under Kelly and he feels he hasn't received. He said he left on good terms, so the article states. but it's fine, we got two other up and coming TEs, who I also think made Colt mad because he had some competition.

 

[WizardHawk]

Cool man, thanks. By the way, I gave Colt Lyerla your name, seems he needs a place to crash.

All I found on him was he didn't travel with the team and it was due to some disagreement over how your HC described why he missed another game where he had some kind of stomach bug. Didn't say he actually has left the school and I'm sure we aren't hearing the full story. Sounds like a pretty weak reason to quit a whole program.

Oh well, you all are too stocked to miss one guy all that much. Your QB and RB alone will win most games for you this year.

Has anyone of significance ever even graduated from the University of Oregon?

Serious question...

Bill Bowerman and Phil Knight founders of Nike, Kurt Widmer founder of Widmer brewing, and 6 NFL Hall of Famers.

Thats who I remember.

Well if he is that kind of cancer your team is better off without him. Just like that cry baby quitter from WSU last year.

that is true, our younger TEs understand the playbook better and are not arrogant entitled hot heads. However, it is a shame considering Lyerla's pure athletic abilities, kid had a chance to do something big.

Crap I'd just be happy to have ASJ do something positive this year at some point. We have a world class TE and he has been completely silent the whole season. He missed all of spring on suspension from his DUI and they installed the uptempo over that camp. He comes back for fall and misses the first game again on suspension and hasn't been at full speed yet. I don't know if uptempo just isn't working for him or if all of his suspensions has left him that far behind, but ether he needs to step up soon or they need to go to his backup. They NEED a TE in the pro set.

Sounds awfully familiar with colt. Last year, Colt was late arriving to Fall camp. Although he started picking up his game by midseason. Im sure ASJ just needs a little more time.

The crew is heading to Seattle for the first time in the Huskies history.

This game is the most heated rivalry in the PAC. They do not like each other and the fans can get pretty intense in this game.

Oregon enters Seattle riding a 9 game win streak vs the Huskies, the longest in the history of the rivalry.

Historically this rivalry has been dominated by Washington, but of late, 9 games straight Oregon has beat UW by 17 or more in each of the 9 wins. Several by 30 plus.

This is Washington's best team it appears since their 2000 Rose Bowl winning team. It also appears Oregon has never been more dangerous than this season.

This thread will get heated. That I can guarantee you. Our fanbases will beat the shit out of each other in here. We have respect for each other, but I repeat, this thread will not be for the faint of heart.

Once the game starts on Saturday the discussion will turn into a football one where the trolling of either team will come to an end.

Several of the Duck and Husky SportsHoopla posters will be at the game.

EARLY LINE: Oregon -12 1/2

tshirt, please do your best work in here and dress up this thread like only you can brother.

Lets get it on for the battle of the Oregon Territory.

USC/UCLA disagree. Any heated rivalry that doesn't include USC is a joke. We are down now but it's not going to last much longer.

 

[MichMafia]

What do you morons think your gonna get coming up here rooting for the A's geez....

yea right!! fuck the A's

UW/Oregon is one of the most heated rivalries in the country. Read this thread about the history of vitriol with both fan bases. We have all had friends/relatives who have been physically hurt going to these games and there isn't much worse both cities could be toward each other.

Even Kirk Herbstreit tweeted last night about it. A fan asked if they would still be coming to Seattle after their loss and his response was:

If even those guys know how much hate there is to the point where they want to tell the country about it you know there's something there.

Dually noted. I was pulling for UW against Stanford. I miss the old Husky helmets that weren't so blinged up. Good luck with the Ducks.

 

[WizardHawk]

you all should read the shit storm going on twitter over the CGD coming to UW lol. Not only are UW/Oregon fans going at it hot and heavy, but the crying from SEC fans over them not coming to florida/LSU is fast and furious.

Fowler commented that if this was a taste of the rivalry they are in for a good one. It is getting their attention for sure.

Weather forecast Fri/Sat in Seattle looking good. Cloudy, but no rain. Game temps in lower 50s. Should be solid for the CFL broadcasts and the beautiful fall PACNW on display.
