We will need all hands on deck to beat the Ducks.  Comments on the following wounded would be helpful: Cajuste; Anderson; Williamson; Gardner (he left near the end of the game vs Oregon State with what appeared to be an arm injury and did not return); and Hoffpauir.

Anderson posted on twitter that he'd be playing. I haven't heard anything since the ORST game about the rest.

"I'm still skeptical. Still need to see some more evidence."

Shaw said today that he will decide on Henry Anderson this weekend (per David Lombardi).

....I wouldn't touch this game in terms of predicting a winner.  Too many variables.  What do the coaches have up  their sleeve?  How effective will injured players be?  Playing for brobdingnagian stakes, it is tough to see what will happen.

I am curious, though.  What do you think the over/under should be?  I'm thinking about 46.

Don't be so dramatic. It means we have less of a chance to upset Oregon, but we will still be favored in every other game this year.

ESPN has Oregon NCG and us to the Rose Bowl.  Apparently they feel 10-2 would be good enough.

Very sad news about Gardner.  He was one of my favourites.  Amazing motor and intensity - a true warrior.  Some of my favourite memories of the Orange Bowl victory are of him chasing down the VT quarterback.

"Favourite." "defense." I've got to ask. Where are you posting from/where did you grow up?

I can't imagine beating a fired up USC in the Coliseum without @BennyG49. Oregon to BCS NCG. South winner to Rose Bowl. Stanford to San Antonio.

I had a bad feeling it was going to be a torn pec.  Big contributor, big loss.  Makes Kaumatule's switch to DE all the more crucial to shore things up.  All hands on deck for the DL.  Keep that #partyinthebackfield going.

Yvonne, very perceptive.  I grew up in Toronto and live in Calgary, so my spelling sometimes looks a little funny.  Canadian English has a few quirks that are distinct from American English to say the least, as well as from how the language has developed in England.

Just when you think Canadians are just like Americans, a guy whose job is rehabbing classic cars leans over and says: "It took you a long time to help us out in the world wars, didn't it?"
