The case of the missing Corso head

When I first heard the news that Lee Corso’s head had gone missing, I was horrified. How was he still living? Hey-oh! The hilarity of that joke aside, the mascot head of Mr. Corso is not to be trifled with. I surely wasn’t going to sit around and just let it go. That’s when I got all SPORTSbyBROOKS up in here.

College GameDay is Official

It was a no-brainer, but it’s been made official that the College GameDay crew will head to Eugene. I’m assuming this means Kirk Herbstreit will be calling the game for ABC or ESPN which means no prediction from the Duck skeptic. Bummer. I was counting on his USC pick to ensure an Oregon win.

"I'm having a difficult time finding six wins for the Ducks"

With reference to the headline, hey, I didn’t say it. That acclaim goes to John Canzano of The Oregonian in what now looks like a gigantic whiff.  We all had our doubts after Boise State, but missing out on bowl eligibility? Quite a reach.
