That Can't Happen

Last night's Oregon Duck loss in the basketball civil war was not fun for a number of reasons:

*I didn't see it coming.
*How do you lose, in your own arena, on a historic night, to a team that was coming off a 50 point loss?
*It was not the way to have the last Civil War in the Pit. The loss was just wrong.

The late drive home was not fun. If I am going to get 5 hours of sleep, I want a victory. Ducks coach Ernie Kent said his staff was "outcoached" and was very complimentary of Craig Robinson and the way they came back. Very classy comments with Jerry Allen on post-game. Kent took the rap for the loss as being his fault for not communicating the vision to his team that they needed.

One more note: Another media person noted what appeared to be some kind of security
person near the OSU bench. As it turns out Senator Ron Wyden was at the game. I think that must have been the reason. Unless the brother in-law of the President now gets security!
