Kelly was a defensive coach himself at one time. Why do we think it's incredible for a coach to go from one side of the ball to another? This is football, not astrophysics.

So Tom's dislike for Frost began when Frost was an 18 year old whippersnapper? My outlook of Coach Osborne would totally change is this were the case.

The rumor here is that Scott will be the OC when Kelly moves on and Helfrich takes the top job.

Our boys played hard. Hats off to them.

And the team that most expected to only win 7 or 8 games, but won 10, again. Such a disaster. 10 wins isn't what it used to be. At the end of last year, I predicted 4 losses and a bad defense. They delivered.

Notice nobody ever came to Taylor's aid? Taylor got a cheap shot in the title game too with no retaliation. This team is soft and our opponents know it.

Isn't it you who is on our board? What kind of loser goes to another school's bulletin board and calls out those who root for their team? Time to grow up.

Top 8 and not giving up 60 points in losses.

The worst thing about the Borland spike was the lack of action by our O-line. Had somebody done that to Tommie Frazier, they would have left the field on a stretcher.

Terrible call.

They're down a ton and he's trying to make a play there. I'm not going to frown at that. I did frown at Ball being untouched for the TD. The first defensive play of the half and they're not pumped up at all? That's coaching.

Horrible angles and bad tackling on defense. What is it with getting blown out in prime time?

+1

One word: Yes.

As everyone should be. We are not even close to a shoe-in. Would we even be favored?

I'm not even sure if you're being serious with this. Just fyi, even before UCLA beat USC on Saturday our strength of schedule was sixth in the nation. Sixth. According to Sagarin, it's 31st.

Not Cardinals. Cardinal. The maroonish color.

Stanford must lose next week for a chance.

Stanford has to beat them twice. Once next Saturday, and then in the Pac 12 title game the following Friday.

I think we'll get Stanford if they win out. I think they have to beat UCLA twice. Crazy day!

It's very possible now because if Oregon wins out, no other Pac 12 team will be in the Top 14. The Rose Bowl will then be forced to take a non-Pac 12 team.

Does Lauren know?

Our games are like the movie Groundhog Day. The same mistakes and the same second half comeback day after day. It would be a thing of beauty to see one mistake free game played by our boys.

You made that up. No offense, dude, but this is a lack of knowledge of the Rose Bowl's history. The Rose Bowl is loyal to both the Pac 12 and B1G. They WILL take a Pac 12 team if one is in the Top 14 There's no doubt about it. Even the ESPN talking heads mentioned it tonight. It's just common knowledge. Now that said, because Oregon State lost and will probably lose again, they're done. Because Stanford will lose to Oregon and won't have enough time to recover, they're done. If the likely scenario plays out, then the Rose Bowl will take Notre Dame. But only then. Had Oregon State beat Stanford, moved up in the poll, and then lost to Oregon, they would have stayed in the top 14 and would have received an invite. As I said in another thread, Notre Dame does not have pull on the left coast. Their fan base is in the midwest and on the east coast. The Rose Bowl resisted a deal where they had to take a non-B1G/Pac 12 team every four years. They were force to take it while squeezing their noses. They took TCU two years ago because they had to due to the four year rule. They won't take another unless they have to.

Karma for 1982.
