Some Oregon/Boise State Links For A Thursday

The Idaho Statesman has a short story on how Patrick Chung and Boise State running back Ian Johnson have a history despite never meeting.

Boise St. sophomore safety Jeron Johnson, seen here laying the thunder to Idaho State's quarterback, says that Oregon's team speed wont be a problem for his team on Saturday.

The Idaho Press-Tribune brings up a common theme this season for Oregon opponents, as well as what redshirt freshman Kellen Moore will be up against this weekend.

Here's a preview of the game (as if you needed it) by Blu-Turf.com's Brett Huston.

Sports Illustrated's Stewart Mandell comments on the Oregon "quarterback curse."

ESPN.com Pac-10 blogger Ted Miller writes that Oregon is (and should be) a little afraid of Boise St.

The Oregonian has a story on the trickeration that might be afoot this weekend with two teams that are notorious in that fashion. It also has a how-to guide with video evidence of what-to and what not-to do.

The Register Guard's Rob Moseley has a story on freshman Chris Harper's history as a quarterback and what he still needs to work on if he plans to become the primary signal caller at Oregon. Curtis Anderson grilled Saturday's assumed starter Jeremiah Masoli about his Samoan heritage, how he ended up at Oregon, and his thoughts on the quarterback situation he's in.

Great entry, lots of information I wouldn't of otherwise had time to find. Throw a bone to the intern, you might want to keep this one around if you can. Nice job Alex. I hope someone is assigned to put a block on that Johnson kid, I shared that clip with a few people and we all got a kick out of it although we need to keep him away from OUR Quarterbacks. Although Harper might just bounce him the other way. Oregon should also be a little afraid of all teams I don't care who they are. How many times have we seen things go south when we underestimated a team or two. As I sat and watched the Purdue Game I was haunted by the thoughts of the Indiana debacle. I'm confidant we will win but college football has no gimmies.
