Eastern and Big Sky links

There are lots of links leading up to Eastern Wasington's opener Saturday at No. 25 Oregon State, including my story on the Eastern players' workmanlike attitude toward the game, an Oregonian sportswriter's reference to this as a "bodybag" game and a piece on the Beavers' suddenly thin offensive line. Wait, there's more, including Riley weighing in on the quarterback discussion, and yet more links - some of which actually link back to my links. Which reminds me of all those emails urging me to join LinkedIn - sorry, not gonna happen.

After OSU, the Beavers play Western Oregon. Here's a link to the school web site. ...At Montana,the Grizzlies are looking forward to a high-profile game against Appalachian State. ...The Bozeman paper covers MSU like a glove; they even have a story on the competition for third-string running back. ... Sam Houston opens against Houston Baptist; here's a link. That's all for now. Time for breakfast, and for some strange reason I feel like having sausages - links, of course.
