Might hurt our vertical passing game

Especially if Maynard keeps throwing jump balls to the WR's.

The Thursday night game will not be dependent upon passing, rushing, kicking, tackling, etc., but it will mainly dependent upon the sprinklers not coming on or the lights going out......if Oregon goes down on their first possession (because Cal will elect to receive in the third quarter...ergo, admitting they could be behind) and scores....well, end of game because Cal won't be able to take the crowd out of the game....a factor that Cal reacts to.......

Unlike yours, our field drains off water.

Maynard had a lot of trouble with a crowned field in Seattle. I hope he at least gets that straightened out.

Actually we pretty much eliminated the crown two years ago. (or maybe it was just one, can't remember atm.)

Chip didn't like it... away it went. Installed a new surface and drainage system. (FWIW)

WINNER!! Haa haa

Yep, I remember who won. Our offense uses the whole field and your offense barely uses the field at all.

Advantage Cal, on a hilltop lake anyways.

---

Your offense takes payoffs from Lyles..

Yah, you pretty much nailed us there.

Of course that wasn't the only time the Ducks struggled in the rain. I find it amazing that a place that rains 364 days a year has managed to field a team that struggles in the rain.

You Ducks really should relocate your team to Las Vegas - it would better fit your team's personality in so many ways.

Our team deals with the rain quite well thank you. Jeremiah Masoli, OTOH, could only deal with water when it was contained within his bong.

---

Apparently Masoli's troubles with water extended even to his bong. How's he doing with his career at McDonald's?

He's actually playing QB in the UFL. I think Oklahoma City team, or something like that. I finished a round of golf on saturday and they were showing the Sacramento vs. whoever team and I noticed that Masoli was playing for the non-california team.

You fan base wasn't so whiny when the Bears were a winning team.

Btw what does the crown refer to when it comes to the field?

Most of the rain now looks like wed. I cant wait.

Many fields have a crown to help draining. The crown is the high point in the middle where the field slopes down on both sides for water to run away from the field.

I found this to complement the above...



Our roads are also crowned, generally, especially highways. With really heavy rains, the center lanes are the place to be to avoid standing water...

I used to hate these fields when I played soccer in High School. Just terrible for soccer.

As of Wednesday morning the forecast is for near perfect fall conditions
