About Nick »

High School student in Portland, Oregon.

I love watching sports, and even more so, debating about them.

Come from a pedigree of Oregon State alumni so it's safe to say my heart bleeds orange and black.

College and professional football are my loves but I also enjoy baseball and the NBA.

Nick,

I have nothing but respect and admiration for Oregon St after tonight. Your offensive game plan was golden, and your execution was great.

I'm cheering for you guys the rest of the way. Great game.

Nick,

After digging deep into the Jim Tressel era at OSU, I've discovered that the close call against Ohio shouldn't be shocking at all...

I'd love your input!
