EAGLES, VANDALS

Portland State is only going to get better.

That's the warning implicit in Dave Trimmer's Big Sky notebook that ran in today's paper. The reason? The Vikings were having quarterback problems. Brain White transferred in from Colorado last week, then almost led PSU to an upset of Montana.

The Eagles hope they are good enough to stop the Griz this Saturday (see link below for John Blanchette's column on Josh Swogger) and they have their reinforcements on the way. The Eags are welcoming back a lot of injured players, according to Dave's blog post.

Other than a brief mention in the Idaho Statesman's WAC roundup, about the only place you'll find UI news is Jim Meehan's blog. One of the interesting tidbits today from coach Dennis Erickson is the news Seahawks' fullback Mack Strong might stop by UI's practice this afternoon.

There is an Erickson's sighting well down in this Seattle Times story about the UW offensive line. An interesting source for a story about the Huskies.
