Many do remember, sorry your Alzheimer's isn't helping you out. Bryant was overrated, but he was cocky and that was a new thing for an OSU QB. LMAO... yep all of the past posters hark back to their remarks from years ago!!? POST of the year... at least to show who you really are! Wow... Musta had a good AOL dial up connection......

To be fair, TennesseeBeaver predicted a 10-1 regular season record prior to the 2000 season; I remember the prediction well on the message boards. It wasn't based on Jonathan Smith, it was based on the experienced, senior-laden team that was coming back on both offense and defense after a successful 1999 campaign, and a one-by-one assessment of every game on our schedule with a determination that we were more loaded than every other team in the PAC. I believe he even picked the Husky game as a loss, due to the tough road environment. I remember thinking at the time that I couldn't really argue against his prediction... My dream is to see a team like that at Oregon State again. Too bad the playoffs didn't exist back then... GO BEAVS! I wish we would have played Oklahoma. A much better matchup, and a bigger stepping stone to claim that yes, we were the best team in the country. Actually OSU vs Va Tech was the original Fiesta matchup. Trying to tackle Michael Vick? That would have been a very entertaining game.

in other words our starting QB wasn't playing well! Not entirely. I can recall the calls fo Jonathan Smith to be benched, especially his senior year when DA was on the bench. I can recall for annual calls for DA to be benched, even though he led the Beavs to 3 consecutive bowls. Well, Derek despite some of his deficiencies has a cannon for an arm. People wanted to see it!

Yes. Va Tech got ripped off by the ND bias in my opinion. Would have also been a better game.

Would have also been a better game. If I remember right, it took no small amount of politicking to even get OSU the at large bid to begin with. UW got the Rose Bowl right? I think it was the Ducks that were the big losers that year. makes me smile...

Yes, although I did go to the Holiday Bowl with them and Texas and it was a fantastically entertaining game. Before their fans were complete a-holes.
