This Blueprint Stuff Works Both Ways

Stanford is writing the blueprint for beating Oregon State.

The Beavers are thin, thin, thin. At one point this season they started a game with as many as seven walk-ons in the lineup. Stretch the field sideline-to-sideline with precise passing, then hit them up the middle with power running.

The Ducks ought to be able to whip up that recipe. At Oregon's blur tempo, the Beavs will have a tough time sustaining their emotion and energy much beyond the middle of the second quarter.

The Beavs offense can't score with the Ducks, especially if the defense succeeds in containing Quizz Rodgers.

  1. Good points.

    I've also noticed the Beavers are slow afoot at linebacker. They will have a hard time when we run wide. This shouldn't be too tough a game. Let's get thru it healthy.
