Gameday heading to Washington State

[Moby Ric 2058]

Pullman is going to burn to the ground win or lose.  

[Rusty Shackelford 414]

Any guesses on how much WSU will get from Paul Allen’s estate?

Enough to buy Saban for the next 20 years.

I wish Gameday would have chosen our BYE game. They have some great cheerleaders.

Not so fast my friend. 

I believe it’ll be Klay but they’re walking it back due to spoiler.

John Olerud is very unappreciated.

I think it would be really cool if a bunch of flags from other schools showed up.  Several smaller/lesser known schools have tweeted at WSU asking if they can take over the tradition.    And yes the official Ol’ Crimson flag will be there front and center. 

Looks like this is happening.

That's pretty damned cool...

This will also likely be the largest gameday crowd ever if the 100k number being floated out there is true.

I think the 100k number is the expected number of people in town. They won’t all be at gameday.  The record is 18,000 in 2010 at Mizzou.  We’ll eclipse that easily (my guess is 35,000).

It's going to be Dolph Lundgren, isn't it?

Lundgren has a movie to promote so I could see that..

[miguelito 11169]

Drew Bledsoe

Ryan Leaf

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just kidding

[Shmitty 112]

If Keith Jackson was still alive, I'd almost say him, since he's probably their most famous alum?

[PatrickMcHorn 376]

LaVar Ball...

I'd guess Bledsoe though.

[Hozz 1012]

I vote for Charissa Thompson on loan from Fox.

[ztejas 43193]

Either Klay or Novoselic

The man is brilliant plain and simple. I think with a bigger program, je would dial back the air raid and pound the ball more like he did when he had good backs to work with.

When was this?

10/20 may become a city holiday, should WSU win tomorrow.

Good chance.  The funny thing is that this is mostly driven by the early 2000s alum. Several of my friends have dropped everything to head back this weekend.  Fb and Twitter have been glorious. 

 

Warning: I’m probably going to go TexasWolf on this gameday thread tomorrow morning...

He’s had good backs that got a lot of touches. Johnie Mack was pretty explosive.  Taurean Hendrson lead the big XII in AP yards for a season. Shannon Woods was adequate. He’s had a couple of decent RBs at Wazzu.

To your point, it was never ‘ground and pound,’ even if guys like Henderson and Woods were very productive.

I would kill to be there this weekend. What an event.

Right, their touches were mostly catches out of the backfield. I don’t dispute that...just this idea of Leach running the ball with any meaningful frequency.

Don’t over complicate things.  A win is a win; who cares if done by run or pass. All ML was saying is that you have to get the ball spread between your playmakers.  Having 2 5* running backs in an offense that only uses a single back isn’t the advantage it’s cracked up to be.

You were probably there the same time as my wife’s cousin. About half her family went to WSU, I only went for grad school.

[shnsajax 3589]

 

So the last three time I’ve gone from Boise to Pullman I have seen some random dude playing drums by himself on the side of a cliff. Closer to Boise, but still random as fuck and never seen anywhere else.

I graduated from there in May 05.  I went to Texas for gs.

Not gonna lie...I'm pretty pumped to watch this Gameday.  I'm enacting the rare weekend alarm clock, which is only used for 11AM Texas kickoffs.

[Shmitty 112]

Me too, I'm getting up early to watch the whole thing just for this.  Can't wait to see it and curious to see how big the crowd will be. I also hope they have The Pirate on their as well.  

[Shmitty 112]

Drew Bledsoe will be the guest picker.

I don't know how the ratings have been for Gameday the last few seasons, but I assume it's a downward trend.  This should be their best rating of the year, unless I'm misreading the excitement

[Domedriver 655]

I hope the Pirate targets some Pac12 officials!

[SDG 3319]

Yeah that record is gonna break today

 

[MNLonghornFUKM 8795]

that is a lot of flags

[TexasMan 10736]

Holy shit what a mad house.

Its so load I can barely hear the host.  

[CoTex 1157]

Good for them.  These poor fuckers have been out in the cold for years.

Party it up coogs.
