The Lobos will be playing the no. 11th ranked Oregon in Eugene, Sept 4. The Lobos are a 34 point underdog, they say….This is a hostile place to play according to many who have played there. Quoted by the Albuquerque Journal, Utah coach Kyle Whittingham said, “It’s a very hostile environment, I can tell you that.”….One of the reason I think the Oregon fans are hostile is that it is a 54,000 seat capacity stadium and they routinely stack about 58,544 in it for the games…No wonder they all are pissed, over 8% of the people are stacked two to a seat….I would be hostile also, they can’t sit down, so they stand up and take it out on the poor slobs down on the field that had nothing to do with ticket sales…Some things in our favor, Oregon plays Tennessee at Tennessee Sept 11, so two things…One, They are thinking about powerful Tennessee and not the lowly Lobos and two, they are not going to use everything in their play book as they don’t want Tennessee to know everything they do…Two or three basic plays should take care of the Lobos is what Oregon may be thinking…You know, they probably will win the game, but I sure hope we can keep it closer than 34 points…Lobos, pull out some Ducks tail feathers, ok?…Who gives a quack about how many feathers you pull is what I thinking…..Pull feathers and howl…..Go Lobos
