Game Thread: Unranked Oregon vs Colorado

[WizardHawk]

This has been well established, but the ducks have been the major recipient of a massive lul in the Pac. The only other team with a pulse over the last decade has been Stanford. USC got gutted with their sanctions and UW went in the terlet. UCLA hasn't made much waves and no one else really rose up. If the ducks did this same thing back in the 90's or 2k's there are no rose bowls or championship games because either UW or USC beats the holy fuck out of them enough to keep them in the middle ranks where they are headed now. Once USC is actually back to strength there is no more duck post season glory (if there ever was any).

Well Helfrich has taken Ducks to the national title game, a Rose Bowl win and coached a Heisman winner.

Solich took the Huskers to the national title game, a Fiesta Bowl win and coached a Heisman winner.



And now he's coaching in the MAC.

I have to admit that this "almost" game thread almost makes me interested in this game.

Gene Chizik won a Natty & coached a Heisman winner. I have no idea what he's doing now though.

No, OD just started the game thread way too early again.

 

[Erie Warrior]

Oh, Ok. But this is the Game Thread, right?

Just like the Ducks, he blows his load early.

Of course.

It would have to be fresh and well-buttered.

Not something that's been sitting in popper for 10 hours and covered with motor oil.

Here's a great recipe for homemade popcorn for the game

Homemade Popcorn

Place the oil, popcorn and salt in a large, 6-quart, metal mixing bowl. Cover with heavy-duty aluminum foil and poke 10 slits in the top with a knife.

Place the bowl over medium heat and shake constantly using a pair of tongs to hold the bowl. Continue shaking until the popcorn finishes popping, approximately 3 minutes.

Remove the bowl from the heat and carefully remove the foil. Stir in any salt that is on the side of the bowl.

Melt the butter in the microwave. Slowly drizzle over the popcorn, while spinning the bowl. Serve immediately

Don't think I get that channel anymore. I'm gonna have to just check into this Game Thread to keep up with the score.

you will be sorely disappointed because this isn't the game thread and no updates during game will be in here.

In short, this was a thread to tell Colorado they suck.

 

[OregonDucks]

Oop I see the confusion here, some jack donkey placed Game Thread for the title.

Hilarious bunch

They will look foolish when the real game thread is created.
