Special Thursday Night Season Kickoff Open Thread (And Details On UCLA Game Watching Parties)

Looks like few of us are taking in the college football kickoff tonight on WWL. USC just beat up on NC State in a boring 7-3 game. Time for some West Coast ball as Oregon takes on Boise State on Boise's smurf turf. We need to wait less than 48 hours for our guys to get started So here is an open thread to jump start the first college football weekend here on BN.

Also, might as well use this thread to share some quick info on alumni watching parties across the country. Details after the flip.

Star-divide

Here are some of the parties we know off:

  • We will start with the Big Apple. Alums in NYC will be watching at "Southern Hospitality" located at 1460 Second Ave., between 76th and 77th Streets.
  • Down the I-95, alums in DC will be watching the game at Bar Louie at 701 7th St NW (#D) in Chinatown.  Also few alums from DC are heading up for Thursday night's game.
  • In Chicago, the Bruins watch their games at Joe's Bar, located at 940 W. Weed St. Here are the details
  • Folks in Bay Area have set up three locations to watch the game. They are watching games at the Old Pro sports bar (Palo Alto), The Stadium Pub (East Bay), and the Pete's Tavern (San Francisco) You can get the full details over here.

As always keep in mind - even though the get togethers listed above are hosted by alums - of course, they are open to every member of Bruins Nation. As for the get-togethers listed above those are the ones we know of. For more on alumni club football watching parties visit this site. If you have info on where the alumni group are watching the games in your town, post the info here.

So let's get it started for a special Thursday night kickoff open thread.

GO BRUINS.

That turf

an abomination.

Many birds

have met their end on that turf. DUCKS! AVENGE THEM!!!

Oh UCLA you sweet bitch, you've BRUINed me for anything else.

Not sure if I am rooting for Ducks

I am pretty disinterested in who wins this game.

I don't know

I have never really cared much for Oregon.

after the KLove fiasco

can’t blame any Bruin.

Go Bruins.

and that wasn't the first time

UCLA was subjected to that kind of treatment up in Eugene.

Ours are still better

have been the past 4 years (Elise)

I agree,

that field is quite an eye sore. It hurts just looking at it – hopefully it’ll get better as time goes on.

Those duck uniforms...

…are the real abomination ;)

Go Bruins.

Eh

not as bad as in previous years. I am liking the Duck wings. Too bad Bronco Stadium is where many birds go to die.

Oh UCLA you sweet bitch, you've BRUINed me for anything else.

I agree, Hi

The stink. There is no way to that the guy who ordered those uniforms deserves anything less than a blindfold and a cigarette.

Of course, these stupid uniforms are probably better than any of the others, but they still stink.

Co-sponsor

I half expected Oregon to have their uniforms cosponsored by affliction. Get them nicely bejeweled.

wow!

good play! they made a lot out of that broken play… boise looks good.

Masoli

Looked pretty mediocre in that first drive.

by Nestor on Sep 3, 2009 7:30 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

I went to a friends to watch the game

and his cable went out :(, so I missed the first drive lol.

16 play drive for 0 points. lol

heh

they deserved some points there…. Thurmond was playing pretty far off the receiver on that last catch. I wonder how he’ll do tonight.

by captainqtp on Sep 3, 2009 7:37 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Chip Kelly feeling a little hot under collar?

Oregon’s offense looking very anemic.

Yeah

Discombobulated. I love that word and use it whenever appropriate. lol

Its a huge game for him

a pressure game right off the bat.

I hope Neu

gives Thigpen a shot at returning punts or kicks… :)

or use him as a skat back?

We will see (and will have to be patient).

I like the pocket presence of this Boise State QB.

Oregon’s dline is going to be their achiles heel this year I think.

Might be 0-0

but Boise is winning :)

They will need to score some points soon

b/c if they don’t have much to show for after domination early on … you know how it goes.

I despise that name.

He's got the same job now at Oregon as

when he was at UCLA

Oh UCLA you sweet bitch, you've BRUINed me for anything else.

by bruin8uclap on Sep 3, 2009 7:55 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

I meant to say

he’s doing the same quality of job.

Yeah, I gotcha

I just don’t get how the dude still has a DC job … after what he did with us.

Always choking in the red zone...

something we have known all to well. Broncos must be livid, it’s a terrible feeling.

YIKES - ugly

comeon guys … let’s get some scoring … I need to go to sleep in next 30-35 mins and I’d like to see a TD or two before going to sleep.

fyi to the gambling minded

the over/under on this game was 66

by insomniacslounge on Sep 3, 2009 8:01 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

what do you guys think

of that helmet to helmet rule. I kinda think its part of football.

by captainqtp on Sep 3, 2009 8:00 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

so I

don’t like it much.

by captainqtp on Sep 3, 2009 8:00 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

RIGHT

That replay of the hie on Masoli was WICKED. They could really get hurt so I’m ok with it.

by uclafan11 on Sep 3, 2009 8:01 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

it's about intent

incidental helmet to helmet contact is fine. but it’s almost impossible to tell if it is or not.

by hicalliber on Sep 3, 2009 8:01 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Some weird

incompletions… and hesitation by the refs is odd

Thomas Jackson III?

Isn’t walter thurmond a III too?

that was a bad pass interference call.

Terrible

phantom PI call

I thought I saw the DB push with his right arm

But I’m watching on a 19" standard def set, so I can’t be trusted for any calls right now.

Or is Tyler still at the Med Ctr?

8 yards of O

from Oregon with 7 minutes left in the 2nd? If you would of said that before this started I would of said you were smoking crack.

Oregon

Looking very ordinary.

by Nestor on Sep 3, 2009 8:11 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

has a UCLA-BYU feeling to it (and Oregon has Masoli instead of Craft)

Masoli does not look like himself tonight.

I have sympathy

for that Oregon defense.

Meh

I don’t. Not sure if the Ducks fan had sympathy for us during our dark years.

Yeah

I am sure his presence is not casting a shadow over Chip. Not at all. LOL

Caroll and Belotti do not get along at all, which kinda makes me like Belotti.

There is something about this football season ...

… it feels different (and no I am not expecting 8 wins). But I am feeling vibe I haven’t felt around UCLA football in a long time.

Plus all the stuff going around this community … I knew this place was “real” all along. But it has gone to another level last few days I think.

by Nestor on Sep 3, 2009 8:27 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Chip Kelly report to the white courtesy telephone please. Bellott wants your headset!

Hmm

that looked like a pic from here.

by captainqtp on Sep 3, 2009 8:28 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

did the ball

actually touch the ground?

by captainqtp on Sep 3, 2009 8:29 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Chip Kelly discovering ...

this is a little different than coaching in UNH – Holy Cross (or whoever UNH plays).

by Nestor on Sep 3, 2009 8:29 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

This is just embarrassing...

How can they drop off this much from their bowl game? It’s not like they monumentally changed their offensive or defensive philosophy. I don’t get it.

by dproduct on Sep 3, 2009 8:31 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

They have a lot of

new, but talented guys on the Oline, and their Dline had a big drop off in the off season (I think). It makes me worried about our new but talented guys.

by captainqtp on Sep 3, 2009 8:32 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

and this is why I am thanful

our season starts this Sat, not next Sat.

by Nestor on Sep 3, 2009 8:33 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

I think

that 3-3-5 is going to give our young offense fits.

by captainqtp on Sep 3, 2009 8:36 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

yeah

It will be interesting to see how we handle their element of surprise.

by Nestor on Sep 3, 2009 8:36 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Is this UCLA/BYU pt II or Oregon St/Penn St pt II?

If it’s the latter, the Beavers rebounded to have a pretty nice season.

it's not over

not by a long shot

by captainqtp on Sep 3, 2009 8:37 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Hmm

Chip Kelly is looking a little bit like Larry Coker.

by Nestor on Sep 3, 2009 8:40 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Oregon is reduced to hoping

Masoli has the kind of second half Craft did against Tennessee.

Have fun watching rest of the game … see you all in early am (well those of you who are up early).

Ducks … perhaps me signing off … will be good luck charm for you.

Is Oregon really as bad as the stats are saying to this point? Geeze!

by bruinhoo on Sep 3, 2009 8:53 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

So far

They haven’t done a thing on offense, and the defensive line is getting dominated.

by captainqtp on Sep 3, 2009 8:54 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Also

You can’t really have zero first downs and not be as bad as the stats say.

by captainqtp on Sep 3, 2009 9:12 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

I don't care what talent you have at skill positions

or in the defensive backfield. If you get whipped on both lines like Oregon is, you’re in trouble.

by Ryan Rosenblatt on Sep 3, 2009 9:16 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Which is why

I think Oregon is overrated this year. They could come on strong at the end when their Oline gets it together, but I don’t think their dline is talented enough to get better.

by captainqtp on Sep 3, 2009 9:20 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Ya...

I hope Oregon turns this around. I was hoping for a good game tonight.

by captainqtp on Sep 3, 2009 9:22 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Plus

Having a potential top Pac-10 get mauled by a WAC team is not going to help our image one bit

by dproduct on Sep 3, 2009 9:23 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

true, but...

the Pac 10 looking down will hurt SC’s potential NC hopes if they have another one loss season

They are really top notch at it. They always fool the camera guys as well.

by dproduct on Sep 3, 2009 9:29 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

That was

a clutch drive for Oregon. They needed that.

by captainqtp on Sep 3, 2009 9:30 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Yep. Defense got to rest,

big confidence boost, and also puts some doubt into the Broncos. Excellent.

Depends on your phone and carrier

I have mobitv installed on my Palm (also offered for Blackberries, I believe), which is a program that offers some live streaming TV (ESPN, CNN/MSNBC/Fox and a few other networks and specialty stations). Otherwise, I believe that Verizon has an internet/TV package that includes ESPN. Not sure if that is available for all of their phones, or just the higher end stuff.

If you have a slingbox, there is a slingbox mobile phone program that allows you to watch via a 3G connection.

Oregon is just appearing average to below average. It’s really across the board. They are lucky Boise St. is gassing out a little.

Really bad call defensively

looked like us against Tennessee towards the end.

by dproduct on Sep 3, 2009 9:56 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

The Oregon Oline

let like 5 guys through on that sack… I wonder if they were setting up a screen.

by captainqtp on Sep 3, 2009 10:10 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Would like to hear opinions b/c wasn't able to see most of game...

1. Oregon took a bad 1st game and will be fine after “working out the kinks”
2. Boise St. is just that good
3. Oregon is overrated and UCLA/Pac-10 could consider the game “winnable” (not saying should but could….)

by Nakatomi Plaza on Sep 3, 2009 10:13 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

I'd say

3. Both Oregon lines need a lot of work and TJ Ward got hurt tonight (not sure what the prognosis is.) Boise state is good, but I don’t think they’re as good as it looks tonight.

by captainqtp on Sep 3, 2009 10:15 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

but

they could improve the Oline play with some work I think. Technique and reads aren’t all that hot.

by captainqtp on Sep 3, 2009 10:16 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

dline

is a lost cause.

by captainqtp on Sep 3, 2009 10:16 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Not 2. this was Oregon's fault.

I want to say 3. because, well, they have looked average at best all game. It’s not just one thing, it’s failures on multiple levels. Also, it’s their lines that are the real problem… So I’m going with 3. At home, if we play up to where we can… winnable.

by dproduct on Sep 3, 2009 10:16 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Thanks guys....

apparently, Boise St. fans agree – there’s the chant…

I think Oregon state is the other overrated team.

You can't chant overrated,

when you’re the higher ranked team. It comes off as just dumb.

Night.

That was embarrassing. Oregon looked terrible. Now punching people? Really Blount?

Embarrassing for both schools

Moreso for Oregon, obviously, but Boise St didn’t exactly handle the game w/ class either.

I can't believe that!

Seriously. He needs to be out of college football for a long time. That was a weak cheap shot.

While that douche in the blue headband

needs to keep his hands to himself. That was classless by Blount.

Also, to the people in charge of Smurf stadium seating

Maybe putting the student body on the field next to the visiting locker isn’t the best idea.

That's not the student section

It’s just general admission seating so I’d guess that students who don’t get student seats buy those.

I know I'm just chatting w/ myself now

But I wonder if the Pac 10 commish was still around for that?

If He Was...

He needs to take immediate action.

Just like Aboya at UW

He’ll probably say the Boise St. guy jumped into Blount’s fist…

There's a new commissioner

so hopefully there’s more control and reason.

I’d like him to speak to Oregon first and allow them to dole out punishment, but if Oregon is unwilling to punish Blount or their punishment doesn’t go far enough, then it’s time for him to step in.

Yeah I agree

It will be interesting to see how far Oregon takes the punishment if given the opportunity to do so. He’s obviously had disciplinary problems in the past so i doubt they can chalk this up to a lapse in character.

Classless anytime you take a swing...

but then to go Mike Tyson/Clubber Lang crazy near the fan section shows absoulutley no restraint or smarts. Embarrassing beyond imagine for Oregon – game and extracirricular afterwards.

Have fun Chip!

Free Brandon Wood!

Zeros on their helmets?

Watching the replay on ESPN360.com,
The Oregon helmets have zeros on them!
From what they showed tonight they got nuthin’. Their D = disoriented.
That doesn’t mean Boysy State is any good either. They have a soft schedule. If the Zeros prove to be weak this year then this game will mean less to Boysy State’s rep.
Both teams looked cruddy, O stank but BS only scored 19.
