Nice job, JJ. You took some great photos on a tough day, and they.document the fact that, even in hard times (and they are), they are still our Beavs. Thanks!

Nice pics, even if the Beavs Beaved it…

Good photography, well done Mr Anderson.

Did anyone else notice the number of empty stadium seats? An artifact of time and angle of the sample from Mr Anderson's work? How were the CW numbers? OSU is on the edge of bigger problems than the injury to its football team's long snapper.

I was at the game. The "announced" attendance was 28K and change. I can guarantee you there were fewer than that inside Reser. One of the worst student turnouts ever. I know school isn't in session yet, but more students usually still find a way to go to the games before classes start. Tons of empty seats in the upper corners, and, surprisingly, down low along the sidelines on both sides. I think OSU has bigger problems than a coach dropping an F-bomb on national TV.

JJ - I think you are a new photographer for John. Here are a few tips.

1) Always include a "cheerleader hair" photo. See Tim's UO photo gallery. It is a tradition dating all the way back to last season:)

2) More crowd photos - in this case showing desperation, anger, possibly crying at such a dismal showing.

3) For this game, I expected a couple of photos of the special teams being completely inept-- bouncing footballs, illegal kicks, dropped balls, etc.

Thanks for the photos. I'm sorry you had to suffer through this game to get them.

I didn't even look at them. Very upsetting game.

John.

Bray is the classic example of the “Peter Principle” in Coaching !… elevated beyond his personal talent to Coach effectively . He clearly is too immature to be a Head Coach in NCAA football . He should have been terminated right after a meeting with Barnes, and it should have been immediately . There is no excuse for such bad behavior and he brought scorn and disdain upon our beloved Oregon State University . I have given away my Season tickets . I am ashamed .

I am more of a Duck fan , but what the heck can you expect from a team that has been devastated by what has happened. The loudest complaint most likely coming from the students who don’t know sh?.. you fans are not helping financially enough to stay a float in the nil years. You don’t need to be a Phil Knight but you need to step it up above Portland state donor. Quit complaining about the ducks , and do something about it.

Thanks for the pics. Its was a winnable game for the Beavers but as a Fresno State grad I was glad the Bulldogs pulled out a win. Although nit a rivalry the Beavers/Bulldogs games are always worth a watch. Now as PAC 12 conference I would expect more of the same. 'Who ever has last possession has opportunity to win the game.

How bad is Fresno that Oregon State was leading with 30 seconds to play with a Gary Anderson performance as a team.

Barnes better be scouting for a new coaching staff now.

Another sad game but great pictures! Sad that most future words will be about Brays nasty words instead of some of the good things the football teams accomplished! Tough decisions for the Beavers coming up soon!
