Wonder if this will affect Tru's draft position? Could this incident cost him thousands in the long run? Hardly. These things happen at Oregon all the time. Pflugrad just needs to talk to his old friend Chip Kelly on the "proper" way to deal with this, and there won't be any problems. htt...

NDSU wouldnt travel accros the river for $50,000. Exactly. Because it is probably flooded and therefore too dangerous to cross. Maybe Washington has the best run defense in the country, I dont know? Ask Nebraska. That Washington DL dominated the Huskers in the Holiday Bowl last December. One of the...

Fixed. You're welcome.

Rural? Cheney is 15 miles from the largest population center between Seattle and Minneapolis. As many people live between Cheney and Coeur d'Alene as live in the entire state of North Dakota. Don't ever let facts get in the way of a good story. Spokane-Coeur d'Alene - 609,715 (14% growth rate) Nort...

The whole thing lost credibility with me with his early statement, "There was a time when Portland St. outdrew both Oregon and Oregon St." I would like to see the data that supports that one. They never have been close. Years where OSU and UO both had stinker attendance: 1974 Oregon State...

Beavers were the worst program in college football in the 80's. The Ducks were mediocre until 1994. I remember the days when there were more Husky fans at Autzen Stadium than Duck fans.

Djh are you high?? NDSU is most prestigous, 8 d2 natl champs, 1 for the others. NDSU 4 FBS wins others 1 NDSU 2 D1 playoff wins others 0 NDSU ranked #1 twice, others not even close, some never ranked. NDSU averages 18000+ others 12,0000, 8000, 6500 Case Closed!!! Ancient history (except the # of fl...

Another match-up with the same national prominence as Flood Valley State vs. St. Whatever.

The game is available throughout the NW on Comcast Sports NW.

Fighting Irish is still the most offensive nickname in college sports.

The "new" guy at safety got a lot of playing time last year and was their top recruit his year. The Huskies are solid at DL and DB. LB is the greenest, but they return a three year starting team captain at one of the LB spots. On offense they are solid too. That freshman from Gig Harbor at...

Great game tonight with a TD. Collingsworth is clamoring for more.

Yeah, it's not the perfect location, but they don't have a 90,000 seat stadium they're trying to fill either. And it's irrelevant, anyways. If the Cougars could capture lightning in a bottle, their attentance would spike and they'd fill the (relatively small) stadium. WSU had three consecutive top ...

I had a couple of good times in Bozeman (not related to football). It really is the definition of "middle of nowhere" though. I couldn't even tell you what the nearest city of any size is... maybe Spokane? Boise? There isn't much there. You head East on I-90 out of Seattle and you hit Spo...

Greater population near Ole Miss and Miss State. Much greater local prep football talent there too. The Palouse is empty wheat fields while the countryside near Oxford and Starkville have automobile factories and air force bases. I'd say Lubbock and Manhattan are closer matches, but they are on inte...

Neuheisel got them in trouble with his lack of integrity and then they had a pair of disastrous hires that drove the program into the ground (the truth is, they hired an AD named Barbara Hedges who was responsible for overseeing all the hires and literally made every worst decision possible). Hedge...

Isn't Washington more of a basketball state? Wazzu, UW, and Gonzo all seem to appear in the top 25 on a regular basis. Football is easily #1 in the state of Washington. Seahawks have sold out most of their existence while the Huskies led the Pac-10 in attendance more than any other program. WSU is ...

Washington State has trouble selling tickets when they are good. They have the biggest geographical disadvantage of all the BCS schools. In hindsight, the state of Washington shouldn't have put their land grant university in rural Idaho. Neither Oregon school is in a "metropolis", yet the...

Really what choice do they have? They should get rid of their sorry excuse for a football team and maybe get one of those teams that twirl ribbons and plays with little red balls, ( that might be something else I'm thinking of :rofl:) Or they could move their flagship campus from Pullman BFE to Spo...

North American aboriginals do not deserve the respect to be honored with a nickname. That's why today's progressive America is moving away from honoring these people by naming sports teams after them.

I vote for Fighting Scandinavians.

What the heck more do these arrogant, racist and twisting nincompoops need to get it????

The racists at the NCAA will never "get it." Fighting Irish o.k., Fighting Sioux not. Why does the NCAA and PC pinheads hate aboriginal pride?

You guys just don't get it, do you. While it's theoretically POSSIBLE for UW to go to Cheney (as then-crappy Oregon State went to Stockton in 1995 and got beat in the midst of a 3-8 year for UOP featuring other body-bag games like Fresno State, Arizona, Nebraska, and the Oregon Ducks), what is more...

I am for a clean environment, just sick of the hijacking of common sense by money grubbers and religious wackos. Green is Universal; barf. GE is just the biggest whore out there. Sick and tired of the green religion, highlighter green Seahawks stuff, ENOUGH! That red field is really refreshing.
