The Wild West of College Football: Oregon State and Washington State - Still Kickin' and Kinda Confused
Let's face it, college football conferences are about as stable as a toddler on a sugar high these days. Remember the Pac-12? Yeah, that whole "Conference of Champions" thing is looking a little rough. But fear not, brave internet explorer, because two brave souls remain: Oregon State Beavers and Washington State Cougars - like the last two slices of pizza at 3 am, a little worse for wear, but definitely still delicious (or at least interesting).
What About Oregon State And Washington State |
So what's the sitch with these two?
These Northwest warriors are boldly going it alone (for now) after the Pac-12 implosion. They've got a hodgepodge schedule this year, with some Pac-12 leftovers, a sprinkle of Mountain West, and Fox snatching up a couple of games (including the epic Washington-Washington State rivalry, because apparently someone likes drama). But hey, at least their games will be readily available over the air on The CW, perfect for those who haven't upgraded to fancy cable packages (or just enjoy watching nostalgic teen shows while simultaneously cheering on touchdowns).
Side note: Keep an eye out for the Beavers vs. Cougars showdown on November 23rd. It's bound to be a battle for regional bragging rights (and maybe a participation trophy...just kidding...mostly).
They may be a little lost, but their spirit is strong!
These underdogs may not have the glamour of the big conferences, but they've got grit, determination, and a whole lot of school spirit (especially when it comes to those in-state rivalries). Plus, who doesn't love a good underdog story?
QuickTip: Slowing down makes content clearer.
So, here's to Oregon State and Washington State - proving that college football can still be fun, even if it's a little chaotic.
