"Bye Bye Ernie"
That is what the Oregon State students were chanting at the end of the Oregon vs Oregon State Men's basketball game in Corvallis on Saturday.They know that Oregon coach Ernie Kent is in the "Hot Seat" and must win this season to keep his job. It's not often I agree with Oregon State fans but this time I do ! Oregon lost the "Civil War" game 62 to 42 in the worst defeat in 28 years. This season Oregon State has swept the two game between the instate rivals for the first time in 17 years. Oregon looked pathetic against a bottom of the barrel Oregon State team that wanted it more. The Pac-10 is not very good this year and Oregon and Oregon State are tied for 2nd to LAST ! Yes, Bye By Ernie ! There should be a rule for Oregon basketball coaches.......lose two games in a row against Oregon State and you are gone !
