Go Beavs: An Oregon State Dynasty

[Fox1994]

You know, NCAA should make Championship Weekend part of Week 15 like it is in real life. I could cry that USC lost. I hate Notre Dame. Not as much as I hate the Steelers or the Broncos, but close.

 

[T.Dot]

Wow you want EMacs dick as well

 

[Fox1994]

lmao. You got dick on the brain, chico. Chill out.

 

[Emac78]

Wow guys. I'll try to get an update up this weekend, maybe even today. All of these bowl games and holiday stuff have left little time for dynasty stuff. I have finished the Championship weekend. I just need to do the update.

 

[Emac78]

No, I won the Civil War last year (season 3).

[size=+1]SEC Championship[/size]
[size=+1](2) Alabama crushes (7) Florida 41-10[/size]

Atlanta, GA - The Crimson Tide dominated this game from start to finish in every fashion of the game. Though neither team was able to get a running game going against the stout SEC defenses, Alabama QB Clay Parquet had a magnificent game as he went 32 for 36 for 236 yards through the air against a terrific Florida defense. The Gator offense could not get anything going all game long against the Tide's secondary. Bama CB#9 was able to take back two interceptions to the house off of Gator QB Kyler Thomas as the Crimson Tide proved they are worthy of being in a National Championship.

[size=+1](14) Texas Tech pulls off upset over (1) Nebraska in 42-37 shootout[/size]

Kansas City, MO - Nobody gave the Red Raiders any chance against the top ranked Cornhuskers but Texas Tech proved everybody wrong. It was Tech QB Allen Wright who was the star of the game as he not only proved he could throw the ball against the best defense in the nation, but he also proved he could do it with his legs as he scored on a 21-yard option run that put the Red Raiders up 14-7 in the 2nd quarter. A pick-six by Nebraska ROLB#36 would give the Huskers a 24-21 lead in the 3rd quarter. However, Texas Tech regained the lead mainly behind the play of QB Allen Wright and a huge game by WR Jacoby Franks who ended up with seven receptions for 157 yards receiving which included a huge 74-yard touchdown that reclaimed the lead for the Red Raiders. Nebraska mounted a 4th quarter come back but it came up short as Texas Tech claimed the Big 12 crown and ended Nebraska's BCS championship hopes.

Yeah, I don't know if you've referred back a couple pages but Michigan was No. 22, but lost to No. 5 Miami in a game of the week. I'm not sure if they are ranked. I'll check, and I'm sure the Wolverines are going to a bowl with an 8-4 record. Let me go check.

New York, NY - It was only Cal HB Langston Jackson, USC QB Aaron Corp, and Texas A&M HB Cyrus Gray that were invited to New York for the presentation. California Golden Bear HB Langston Jackson came away with the Heisman Trophy today. It came as no surprise as Jackson was a favorite most of the season. USC QB Aaron Corp probably lost his chance with a bad game against rival Notre Dame. Corp did not even come away with the O'brien award as it went to QB Josh Brown of Penn State earlier in the week. Texas Tech WR Jacoby Franks sparked some interest of many voters in the Big 12 with a sensational game at Arrowhead against Nebraska that may have hurt Texas A&M HB Cyrus Gray. But Gray had some unimpressive games on national television that would hurt his chances. Although, Gray did come away with the best punt returner award. Virginia HB Torrey Mack received both the Maxwell and Doak Walker awards earlier in the week but was barely noticed by the Heisman voters. Nobody can really argue with the decison of giving the most prestigious trophy to Jackson after the season he had. The impressive performance to help lead Cal past USC sealed the deal in most voters' opinions as the all-purpose back looked phenomenal against one of the best defenses in the nation.

 

[Fox1994]

Cool championship update. And Langston Jackson's a beast.

I'd rather you only have one Legend. You already have that QB Jacob Marsh. Would you rather have one of these other two.

Also, I know I posted that CAP sheet but I'm not entirely sure it is something I'm going to do. I'm still not sure how it will be fun or interesting but I'm still undecided. It might happen.

[size=+2]Oregon State headed back to the Sun Bowl[/size]
[size=+1]Connecticut (8-4) vs #16 Oregon State (10-2)[/size]

There will be many happy people in Eugene today after Oregon State learned that they will be headed back to the Brut Sun Bowl for the second time in a row. It was Notre Dame that ruined Oregon State's opportunity to make the Holiday Bowl when the Irish were able to defeat USC. That knocked the Trojans out of the BCS bowls and into the Holiday Bowl. The Beavers will play the Connecticut Huskies in El Paso on New Years Eve, December 31, 2011. In theory, Oregon State should be a huge favorite as UConn is unranked and finished 8-4 in a relatively weak Big East. The Beavers played in one of the most competitive conferences this year, losing only to USC and Oregon. The Beavers have to be disappointed as first their Rose Bowl dreams were vanquished by USC, then any BCS opportunity was smashed by rival Oregon, and now they have discovered they will not even be able to go to San Diego for the Holiday Bowl. It looks like many of those Duck fans with the "Have fun in El Paso" signs were correct.

Good luck.

lol

 

[Emac78]

Well, I finished the Sun Bowl, wrote down all of the information, saved all of the pictures and videos but the game froze on the loading screen so I have to play it all over again. This is really getting frustrating. This is like the 5th time this has happened during the dynasty. It was a really boring 38-7 victory so I'm not really looking forward to playing it all over again. Quinn had a career game, like over 170 yards and four touchdowns. UConn's only score came on a pick-six thrown by Rossner. They only had one first down in the entire game and had a total of 40 yards of offense. It should be really exciting to play it all over again.

 

[Fox1994]

lol. You don't love it when you get to blow teams out?

 

[Emac78]

I just like it when the games are competitive. However, I did replay the game and hope to have the update up today if I can find time between the the playoff games.

[size=+2]Brut Sun Bowl[/size]
[size=+1]Connecticut (8-4) vs #16 Oregon State (10-2)[/size]

El Paso, TX - Oregon State finds itself back in the Sun Bowl for the second year in a row. It was the Beavers that were underdogs last year against a one loss West Virginia squad but OSU upset the Mountaineers in convincing fashion. Now Oregon State finds itself a huge favorite over the Connecticut Huskies. Mother Nature was not too kind to the Sun Bowl as it was cold, rainy day at El Paso. It would be intersting to see how Oregon State responds after losing to rival Oregon in the Civil War and not making a more prestigious bowl with a 10-2 record.

If anybody thought that UConn was just going to come in here and roll over they were sadly mistaken as the Huskies marched right down the field on the opening drive. UConn made it into the red zone but their drive was brought to an end by the Lombardi award winning DE Kevin Frahm, who made his 18th sack of the season and forcing a fumble but UConn recovered it. The sack forced UConn to kick a 42-yard field goal, giving the Huskies a 3-0 lead.

It would not take long for Oregon State to respond though as QB Bryan Rossner connected with WR Marcus Sullivan, who took it for a 42-yard gain to set up OSU at the 11-yard line.

On third down, Rossner threw to TE Pete Rich who was crossing into the end zone but the ball was thrown too far in front. Therefore, OSU was forced to kick a 27-yard field goal to tie the game 3-3.

However, Connecticut was not phased in the least as they again marched right back down the field. This time the Huskies finished it off when UConn HB Kelmetrus Wylie powered though the OSU defensive front for a 1-yard touchdown to give UConn a 10-3 lead at the end of the 1st quarter.

It was clear that the Huskies had come to play and Oregon State better do something soon on offense. That is exactly what they did when Rossner threw to WR#80 playing the TE position in the flat who took it for a 34-yard gain to get Oregon State to the UConn 21-yard line. It would set up an eventual 5-yard touchdown scamper by HB Marvin Quinn who was able to get to the outside and into the end zone to tie the game 10-10.

After a few scoring drives by both teams, the defenses for both teams woke up and started making stops. UConn would be forced to punt. Then OSU was forced to punt after a three and out. Next, UConn would have a three and out. Finally, Oregon State would get something going. It was apparent that OSU WR Brian Herring was not going to be much of a factor as Rossner and Herring were unable to connect on a deep connection. It was WR Marcus Sullivan that was becoming the go-to guy in this game. The Beavers would get into the red zone where HB Marvin Quinn would fight his way in from one yard out for a goal line touchdown to put OSU on top 17-10.

With only a bit of time on the clock, UConn was able to march quickly down the field and attempt a 34-yard field goal at the end of the half that was kicked through the uprights to make it 17-13 OSU at halftime.

After the impressive last minute scoring drive for Connecticut at the end of the half, the Huskies had momentum on their side. Oregon State needed to do something as UConn was starting to feel that they might pull off a huge upset. That was when OSU HB Marvin Quinn took a handoff that was suppose to go the right, but he cut left and found a huge opening. Quinn sped through the hole, then made a move to cut to the outside and was gone for a 45-yard touchdown run to give the Beavers their biggest lead of the game. Quinn's third touchdown put OSU up 24-13.

[size=-5]OSU HB Marvin Quinn breaks one for a 45-yard touchdown.[/size]

The huge run by Quinn was play of the game thus far and brought the Sun Bowl crowd to a frenzy, especially the fans clad in orange. UConn seemed to be affected by the change in momentum and was forced to punt after a three and out. However, OSU was unable to make the knockout blow as they also punted after a three and out. UConn found itself with what looked like success as they were able to get to a 3rd and 1 but OSU DE Brian Dailey got a fantastic jump and brought the drive to an end with a sack to force another three and out.

This time the Beavers got back in sync and found themselves back in the red zone where Rossner playactioned to Quinn and rolled out, did not find anybody open and took it in himself as he snuck across the goal line for a 5-yard touchdown scramble to put OSU up 31-13.

It appeared that the Rossner touchdown scramble was the straw that broke the camel's back as UConn could not get anything going as they were forced to punt after another three and out as the 3rd quarter came to an end.

OSU HB Marvin Quinn broke an 11-yard run to put himself over the 100-yard mark for the game but on the next play he would leave for the remainder of the game with a bruised elbow. It would not seem to matter though as Oregon State was just trying to milk the clock. The Beavers would attempt a 49-yard field goal that was just out of range for kicker Kevin Smith as it hit the crossbar. Later, the kicker would convert on a 48-yard field goal as the Beavers faced some adversity early but took care of business to get their second Sun Bowl trophy in back-to-back years with a 34-13 victory.
