I remember when Pete Carroll was coaching the team and they had a LEGION OF BOOM defense. They would have never lost this game. But those days are gone. 

If 6 of the legion players were out hurt they would have lost a similar game back then. Too many injuries at the moment.

Geno was fantastic last night, can't blame him for losing to a superior FRANCHISE. It amazes me how into the Seahawks you guys are. I remember when the 12's were a thing, when people would fly their stupid Seahawk flags, even here in Oregon we had to deal with that s*it for a couple years. But it was just a fad. Thank God. 

Are you SURE about THAT andrew?    It seems TO me that PEOPLE still love the Seahawks and the passion IS just AS strong.    If they GET on another run then you WILL see.   You don't BELIEVE 90% of WHAT you POST on this forum.

I can see on here the passion is strong. We have real west coast teams like the 49ers and Dodgers that people could root for too.

Why is it that Oregon doesn’t have any pro sports teams other than the TrailBlazers?

I wore my Seahawks HAT and my Seahawks SHIRT during the game but it still WASN’T ENOUGH.

Small population.

Still? Need to get more people moving in down there! 

[StormchaserChuck1]

Seahawks have one of the best home crowds in football.

Still? Oregon has lost population since 2020. 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

I don’t give blind loyalty to the local pro team. Not a blazer fan.

You need to continue doing your part to get that population number up!!

They've been an exercise in how to kill a fanbase for the most part since 2000. Although the horrible injuries to Brandon Roy and Greg Oden did set them back a bunch of years. But they still managed to piss away Dame's HOF career and are now a rudderless mess with absentee ownership.

[TT-SEA]

Astros eliminated without winning a game.   Beautiful. 

[Anti Marine Layer]

Better luck next year for the Mariners

[T-Town]

Worth the watch. 

[MossMan]

Finally an entertaining Amazon game! 
Though I don’t like the Al/Kirk combo, and the sound of the crowd noise always sounds weird for some reason. Not a fan of the Amazon broadcast.

"Working on it"

That's one way to put it

Nice. Hope it was a fun time! Game went pretty well.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

No luxury box, but decent seats for a dominant Big 10 win.  Oregons defense looks good. Offense has something missing, but is decent.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

I think UW could beat Michigan. Big blue is a mess on offense.

[Thermal Trough]

Beavers and Rams tied at 24 going to OT down in Corvallis!  

[Thermal Trough]

and now going to DOUBLE OT tied at 31! Crazy game down in Corvallis!

[Front Ranger]

#1 Alabama goes down. Gotta love it.

[Thermal Trough]

The beat the 39-31 in DOUBLE OT! They are now 4-1. Great game down in Corvallis!

Oregon takes down tOSU next Saturday night. Autzen stadium and Husky stadium are both pretty nasty.

[snow drift]

Go Huskies!

Awesome game!   My son sent this pic during flyover before game.   Greatest setting in college football.

[TT-SEA]

And of course Kalen DeBoer and Alabama lose to unranked Vanderbilt.    Sweet day all around.

Also Minnesota beat USC... my niece is a senior there and got to storm the field at the same time my son was in Seattle. 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Storming the field when beating a non top 5 opponent is pretty funny. 
 

You would never see Michigan storm the field after beating UW.

They are a mess on offense. Their defense is solid, but it’s hard on a defense to have such a dysfunctional offense. UW is solid on defense and has a passable offense with some balance. Michigan can’t throw the ball at all. My fraud detector was blaring. 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

I don’t expect Oregon to beat Ohio State. To say Lanning has struggled in big games… Oregon s offense is clearly not as good as it was the past two years.

Life is short.   Enjoy it.    General rule at UW is beating top 10 team.

This team is only going to get better as the season rolls along. Trent Bray is a great coach and a home run hire. GO !

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Arizona looks terrible so far at home against TECH.
