This week in college football

Oregon State Beats USC

 

Oregon State 27 #1 USC 21. Wow! I didn't think anyone was going to be able to take down the "Mighty Trojans" this year.  The way they dominated Ohio State it looked like they should be playing in the NFC West.  But for the second time in three years the highly ranked Trojans lose at Reser Stadium. 

 

A strange way to fill their stadium.  UCLA ran an ad last week in the Fresno newspapers trying to draw fans to the spacious Rose Bowl.  They encouraged Bulldog fans to buy tickets and make the trip to the Rose Bowl.  Fresno State Head coach Pat Hill said in an interview that he expected between 20 to 25 thousand Bulldog fans to make the trip down to Pasadena.  UCLA averages somewhere in the 65,000 range per game in the spacious 91,000+ seat Rose Bowl.  This could have been a big mistake on UCLA's part since the Bulldogs always travel well.  Look for a lot of red to make the 3 1/2 hour trip south and show up in Pasadena today.

 

I will be covering a great contest (me being sarcastic) at Husky stadium tonight as the 0-3 Huskies host the 2-2 Cardinal of Stanford in the late FSN game, with kickoff set for just after 7 pm.

I will be watching this game closely!

Fresno State, ranked 21st hosts 10th ranked Wisconsin, of the Big Ten Saturday night, in a game that is sold out, at Sweeney Field aka Bulldog Stadium. This game probably doesn’t mean a whole lot to Washington football fans, but it is definitely on my radar, since anyone who knows me knows I am a huge Fresno State fan. The Bulldogs have played the Badgers twice this decade, both times at Camp Randall beating them 32-20 in 2001 and losing a close one 23-21 in 2002. The Badgers come to Fresno after two pretty dominating wins over Akron 38-17 and Marshall 51-14, while the Bulldogs had last week off and defeated Rutgers 24-7, the previous week in their opener at Rutgers. Oh yeah I will also be watching closely a pretty good game that will be going on at the LA Coliseum between the the top ranked USC Trojans and the 5th ranked Ohio State Buckeyes. I will be recording both games on DVR since I will be busy shooting Husky Stadium as the Huskies will be hosting the 3rd ranked Oklahoma Sooners.

Football Season Is Here!

Lots of football coverage to follow. I will be following these teams very close: Lake Stevens Vikings, Washington Huskies and Seattle Seahawks.
