Around SBN: Knicks Beat Lakers With Familiar Strategy

YouTube Thursday: They have a cannon, too????

I did not know that.  Apparently, Cal is not the only football team with its own cannon.  Cannon technology is such now that it can easily spread to other schools.  We all knew this day was coming.  Makes me feel a little less special.  But knowing that we were the first school to have a cannon (except for JollyRogerTech, I guess) does stem the pain.

All just stealing our ideas.  Next up, these other schools will have nonsensical blogs, just like Cal does!

And if you ever wanted to know how to fire a cannon, here you go:


Star-divide

Ever feel unmotivated when about to take the field for your beloved CSU Rams?  Well, then watch this:

Two different sets of highlights from last years CSU game:


Here's Rams QB Billy Farris throwing a TD to WR Dion Morton:

And another solid catch by Morton:

Morton is a good WR, but Rashaun Greer might be better:

But they don't lack talent at RB, either.  They got Gartrell Johnson III:

And Kyle Bell:

Here's some highlight videos of a games this year for CSU against Houston:

That is a good overview of what CSU is doing this year.  And a great perspective regarding what video camera and cannon technology is available in Colorado.

We were also the first team with card stunts…

Just throwing that out there.

I actually have no idea if we were the first team with the cannon.

But that aint gonna stop me from proclaiming that!

This isn’t turnovers, this is just Oregon State outplaying USC. Feels like Cal-Maryland in all but name.

Typical Mike Riley. His team plays like crap early on, then blazes his way to the finish.

CSU's cannon is LOUD

Like farging loud. I went to the game last year, and that cannon blows ours away for ground-shaking holy-shit volume.

That said, it is also MUCH closer to the stadium (you can see it in the vid, it’s right above the end of the bowl (which is really just grass).

USC is getting dominated

…by a redshirt freshman tailback. This dude’s helmet got ripped off and his legs still didn’t hit the ground.

He could easily do one of those hiding trick plays from Ragnarok’s recent post.

unforunately the team wasn’t :-(

by tmoran3020 on Sep 25, 2008 7:32 PM PDT up reply actions  

I think we'll be okay.

Kevin Riley is probably incredibly motivated to beat OSU after last year’s debacle. That and it will be his first (real) game in his home state. As long as OSU isn’t playing out of its mind (as it, unfortunately, tends to do in November) we should hopefully escape with a close victory. This game does worry me the most of all our remaining games, though (just ahead of Oregon at Cal).

And I don’t think Tedford or any of the team captains will allow Arizona ’06 to happen again.

USC, however, could be an unpleasant game.

OK, so do we have to root for U$C for some sort of conference pride? Cause I just can’t do it. Feels so dirty. Also, if OSU beats them, does that mean stanfurd is better than tOSU?

Think about it…

Root for OSU, so that it’s easier for Cal to win the Pac-10.

Anyone else wondering

Why OSU sent their JV to play at Penn St.?

It was all part of their “Let’s screw around for the first few games and then get serious” plan that they execute every year.

We should just pigeon in Mike Riley for 8-4 again, win or lose. It’s what he always does.

A flag in the “Holding area” is unintentionally funny to me. Other famous holding areas: Guantanamo; a slaughterhouse cattle chute; pot clubs.

Holding Penalty

OSU is playing like they mean it, but there’s a heck of a lot that USC has done to ruin their chances.

Also, I bet Mark Sanchez will never set foot in the state of Oregon again if he can help it

Does this mean we start taking this season seriously now?

Does SC go into a tailspin like we did last season after losing to OSU?

by DougOLis on Sep 25, 2008 9:34 PM PDT reply actions  

I’ll believe it when I see it. We have this discussion every year and USC bounces back.

by BearsNecessity on Sep 25, 2008 9:34 PM PDT up reply actions  

That was mostly a joke about them going into a tailspin. They’ll be fine.

The part about taking the season seriously now is somewhat legitimate. I was fine playing for 2nd but now, maybe not.

by DougOLis on Sep 25, 2008 9:49 PM PDT up reply actions  

I just don't know what to say

I don’t think USC is significantly worse than we thought. I mean, if there was just one game to play, pretty much everyone would still pick them right?

But, is OSU really this much better? I mean, against Penn St. they just got smoked. Legitimately beat down. And I know they did this last year against Cincinnati, but damn.

by Nashville on Sep 25, 2008 9:40 PM PDT up reply actions  

Their D-Line looked really, really bad in the first half. And our O-Line is our strength Yeah, I don’t know either.

by sec119 on Sep 25, 2008 9:44 PM PDT up reply actions  

What I think this means

is that every Pac-10 team (read Cal) ought to have no fears about going into the Coliseum and winning.

by Nashville on Sep 25, 2008 9:43 PM PDT up reply actions  

USC is the only ranked team in our conference…and they’re going to be tied for last place next week. Good times.
