You can't score if I've got the ball. RTFB. Eat some clock. Keep field position if nothing else. If they have to keep 7/8 in the box, makes the passing game easier. Keeps the D off the field and fresh. You can play O tired. Try to play D tired and you be in trouble. RTDB! What was the guys name on PO that used to screech that 100 times a day and 1000 on game day? Totally agree though, in all of our games Time of possession will be a key metric. Quick scores are nice, but long, 10, 11 , 12 play drives that end in touchdowns.... THOSE are GOLD! We definitely have the horses to do it. We have three bona-fide Pac-12 starting running backs (Well 2 for sure, I am convinced Baylor is too). And a WR group that is so bursting at the seems that a 4* transfer may end up being our fourth best WR. And the real linchpin, is we have two legit pac-12 QBs, both with at least a year of experience and tutelage under Smith and Lindgren. The only real question mark on offense is the OL, but even that is anchored by two experienced seniors (Brandel and Lavaka) and Kiper is, IMHO, one of the most exciting, huge and athletic OL prospects we have ever had. The ingredients are there for this to be a VERY good offense, like lead the league in total yards / points good. If everyone stays Healthy (big IF) and Lindgren is as good of an OC as I think/hope he is we should put up plenty of points. The defense just needs to be fast and aggressive, I don't see us stopping drive after drive, but if we can be disruptive and become a defense focused on TFL and turnovers then we could win this game, and a bunch more than many are expecting. Don't get me wrong a bowl game is still a high goal, but not impossible at all. Hmmm.... I need coffee... that got rambly... where were we.... oh yeah RTDB!I love your enthusiasm, lol. But in all seriousness, you make some good points that make me feel it's going to be fun to watch Beaver football this year. I have some faith that we have the pieces in place and the staff and scheme to generate offense. The defense will take time and that's ok with me.

I think he got the boot over here because of an argument over Dutch Brothers commercials. "Go Dutch" during Beaver broadcasts triggered him. Go Beavs!!

All it takes is one turnover and a score off that turnover for Oregon State to begin to "figure it out". That's it....offense can move the ball almost at will....hopefully a bit more in the passing game longer range but we'll take what we can get.
