"Climbing is easier than hanging on" - Duck football

[Surfah]

As an impartial observer, I thought the officiating was pretty terrible. I saw at least 3 false-start penalties on Stanford go uncalled. The PI call that took away the INT was bad, especially considering Stanford's DB's were essentially given free reign to hold and grab the Oregon receivers. There was a no-call on a PI in the second quarter where the Stanford linebacker was completely draped all over Oregon's TE before the ball was ever thrown. Even after the ball was thrown to that TE, there was no call. Lots of holding by the Stanford Oline went uncalled as well.

The Ducks self destructed with many of their penalties, but they got hosed on a few calls. Also, I am not sure I have ever seen an encroachment call on the offense before last night.

Any suggestions for getting tickets to the Oregon Utah game? I've been to Autzen a couple of times but with tickets in hand. This time, I haven't got any tickets yet, but I'll be in town.

Yes, I know, nobody in Oregon cares about this game....it's just Utah....should be plenty of tickets, etc.

HFN, any suggestions to an out of towner looking for tickets day of the game or slightly before?

How many do you need?

[Portland Ute]

How many do you need?

Four.

[HuskyFreeNorthwest]

Four.

I've got you taken care of.

I've got you taken care of.

Of course, PU, you'll be expected to hold up one end of the "Harline Is Still Open" sign as the Utes run onto the field. A small price to pay for HFN's characteristic generosity.

This is beyond my expectations when I came here. I was just hoping for some advice in terms of the secondary ticket market in the Euge. Thanks a ton! I've sent you a boardmail.

That would be...odd to the Duck fans that surround us. Also, I'll probably have a magic marker in tow just in case...to write "4 out of 4" on the back of the sign. . Nah. I trust HFN wouldn't require such a thing. I'd never do that to a guest and from what I have seen from him around here over the years, he's a much better person than I am.

But he does have a thing for signs when the Utes visit Oregon...

DUH duh duh.....

Had to work late, so I didn't get to watch the game. Listened to the fourth quarter on the Oregon IMG Network though. I have to say that the Oregon radio guys are the most whiney homers I have ever heard. Apparently, the refs did not call a single penalty on Stanford the entire game, even though Stanford committed a major penalty on every down (usually some kind of personal foul that was egregious and right in front of the refs). And apparently it is pathetic for Stanford fans to celebrate a victory over the #2 ranked team in the country, because ... after all ... it is just one game.

Reading your whinig about holding in the Wisconsin thread is even more pathetically funny now.

HFN, need some BYU Notre Dame tickets. 2 maybe 3. Thanks.

Sorry, just have my last 2 to President Eyring.

Over-rated.

Stanford 26 Oregon 20

The glory of God is intelligence.

Laughing out loud at Oregon for going for it on fourth and goal at the 4 on their first drive. HUBRIS.

BYU 112 Stanford 103

To be learned is good if they hearken unto the counsels of God!

[BigPiney]

Oregon still sucks.

Mariota and receivers seem a little off today as well.
