Mike Remmers was never a Duck fan but many current Beavers used to be.
Remmers is a diehard Beavers fan. When the Ducks sent him recruiting letters, he didn’t even open them. He was either getting a scholarship with the Beavers or walking on.
Anyway, (OSU OG Burke) Ellis and Remmers are good friends. Ellis’ brother is Remmers’ current roommate. Now that the buildup to the Civil War has begun, there’s a different vibe around the apartment.
“I don’t talk to him right now,” Remmers said of Ellis’ brother. “It’s an agreement. You don’t say anything to me, and I won’t say anything to you.”
Remmers plans to go duck hunting on his family farm on Thanksgiving to put food on the dinner table that night. And of course he’s taking Ellis with him.
“We do have to kill those ducks,” Ellis said with a smile.

Oregon Sucks.

In a sentence, that pretty much sums up how I feel about the Civil War and UO. I understand that to many players (I almost called them “kids”. Damn, I am getting old) who are a part of each program, this game doesn’t didn’t have the same meaning as it does to those of us from Oregon. Last year changed a lot of sentiments. December 3rd, December 3rd, December 3rd…

Trust me, there isn’t a better youtube version of that song that can be embedded. I blame graduates of the University of Oregon.

Meat-head?
Oregon State goes to Pullman to take on Washington State. For those of you not keeping score at home, the Cougars really stink at playing football. Unfortunately for them, that is what they are going to be asked to do on Saturday. Shockingly enough, the game isn’t going to be shown on the television. Bonus coverage: Read more »
Relax, You Don’t Have to Root for Oregon

The University of Oregon controls their own destiny in the chase for the Pac-10 title. They win out and they are in. Their remaining games? The University of Arizona and your Oregon State Beavers. The race for the Rose Bowl is somewhat complicated or could be, rather. It is possible that three teams finish with two losses in conference. For this to happen, Oregon has to lose one more game. The top of the Pac-10 currently sits like this:
- Oregon 6-1 (@ UA, vs. OSU)
- Stanford 6-2 (vs. Cal)
- Oregon State 5-2 (@ WSU, @ UO)
- Arizona 4-2 (vs. UO, @ ASU, @ USC)
The conference can’t finish with four two-loss teams since both Oregon State and Arizona play Oregon. If a three way tie occurs, the best case scenario for the Beavers is (of course win out) to have the tie be with Oregon and Stanford so they would have the tie breakers. If OSU is tied with Arizona they will own the tie breaker over them due to Arizona’s victory over the Beavers in Corvallis earlier this season. SO…do we want Arizona to lose to Oregon and therefore removing them from the conversation? If that was the case it would be between Stanford, OSU, and UO. Great, right? Well, yes and no. Read more »

Gonzaga nearly upset Michigan State tonight. They probably would have if they would have played Will Foster more.
Somebody better realize this post is directed at them.
Gameday Preview: OSU vs. Washington

Jake Locker making out with his mom.
The Beavers take on the Washington Huskies in Corvallis tomorrow. UW is a much improved team under Steve Sarkisian, just as I predicted they would be (you do the research!). The offense is led by suddenly hot NFL prospect Jake Locker. Side note: Jake Locker is not going to be a good NFL quarterback. However, the problem for the Huskies is not their offense but their putrid defense. They rank somewhere around 110th in the country in defense…or maybe it is just pass defense…or run defense. At any rate, their defense sucks more than Locker does with his mom’s face. Zing! Is that too many Locker-kissing-his-mom-jokes for one post? To be honest, I’m not even sure if that made sense.
Oregon State should roll but then again I said the same thing about UCLA. I am quietly confident Oregon State will win by at least two touchdowns. And remember Beaver fans, if you see anybody in Corvallis wearing purple (or whatever they try to pass that sissy color off as), Husky fans are nearly as insufferable as Duck fans. It’s true, I read it on Wikipedia.
Go Beavers! Read more »
