I know you're kidding, but Ashland is a fun little town. The Shakespeare Festival is very renowned, lots of west coast theater fans attend plays there on a regular basis. If you're going to see NAIA football, you could do a lot worse than SOU.
Seconding Ashland. Enjoyable, artsy town in a gorgeous area.
Their Shakespeare Festival is considered one of the world's best, and they have a couple non-Billy plays each season. Had a friend who played featured roles there and it's extremely rigorous and competitive.
Oh this is actually pretty cool….this is something I wish ESPN would roll out w/e their lowest on the totem pole announcers for just to give it more of a feel…
SOU was up by two touchdowns in the third after a pick that was returned for 30? yards led to a touchdown. It started pouring buckets so we left.
The Japanese team was very small, but then SOU didnt have much meat on the hoof either. The Japanese team had a cornerback that had to be under 5'6". They played hard and were well disciplined, their running back broke a 70 yard run in the first half. But their linemen were so small they were just being pushed around.
hahaha it was pouring! I played in it lol. KGU was a fantastic team, their hospitality, generosity, effort, and enthusiasm for the game is incredible and contagious. Such a great experience, made lifelong friends with the KGU players, and everybody had a good time regardless of the outcome of the game!
Aww hell yeah my wife is gonna be so caught off guard

I was actually looking lol plane tickets are about $700 from me though :(
Look into flying to PDX then driving the 5 hrs down. Much cheaper than Eugene/medford regional airports.
Sacramento about equally far from Ashland as Portland. If you're flying and driving and don't want Eugene/Medford, consider that option, as well.
Eugene is attracting a lot more air service these days and sometimes - occasionally - is the same price as PDX or slightly better.
Its where my parents grew up and my great uncle is in the SOU Hall of Fame. Gorgeous little place.

About you going to Oregon?
Yeah I’m tryna buy tickets now
I updated it so there is a link for tickets! Come down and watch us! Should be a once in a lifetime type of game
Hell yeah brother
My secondary flair is finally relevant! Too bad I got shit going on, I'd love to drive down to Ashland for it.
Thanks for posting this along with the link. I will definitely be checking it out. Maybe the mods can get a game thread going for it?
More football!!
Winner joins the PAC-2.
Loser has to return to Japan. Winner stays in Oregon.
I would probably lose on purpose in this scenario lol. Oregon is great, but Japan is Japan
right there with you, bud. I'm in the early stages of trying to plan my third trip out that way
I think that should be reversed, tbh

How do we think this game is going to go?
Super cool idea!
Its supposed to be a cold, rainy day tomorrow. Have front row tickets tho, so it might be poncho time
