HFN, what is wrong with your coach going for 2 every time? That's so obnoxious.

I think Colorado is very good this year. If not for Liufau's injury they may or may not win that game but they certainly keep it very close until the end. (I was flipping between 3-4 very good games and trying to keep my children entertained during that time so I never heard what was the deal with his injury--was anything reported?)
Oregon State looks a little improved, enough to be dangerous. The Arizona schools have both regressed but are still very dangerous. There are no off weeks in the PAC 12. However, there are also no dominant teams. It's only week 3 and we're already down to Stanford and Washington as the only teams* with a chance to be competitive for the playoff (and I just don't see it with either of them). I think the PAC 12 is looking at a bunch of teams between 7-9 wins with a couple at the top winning 10. It's a year of parity/mediocrity.
*I think Utah is good but I don't think we're "compete for the playoff" good.
Oregon's window I believe has closed. Hopefully they can in the next few years find a spark to create a new window.
They can bring Chip back when he's fired after two 49er seasons.
Then I would have a testimony of prayer working!
Wow, Cal up on Texas 35-33, just before half time. That's a basketball type score.

Then the third quarter is scoreless.

Devon Allen out for the year, torn ACL. The wheels are officially coming off.
Did you see where Jordan beat Taylorsville 91-83 a couple of weeks ago?

As well as Crosby. Bad weekend.

Beavs showing some fight coming back.
CU looking fierce, up 23-7 in Eugene.
Impressive comeback for the Vols, from down 21-3 to up 24-21. They had two turnovers inside the UF 10, this could be a UT rout.
No Sefo? No problem.
Colorado up 23-7 over the Ducks.
For football, yes.
For everything else, hell no.
with all due respect to Oregon St, where are they superior to Boise? Corvallis is gorgeous, but they aren't much to write home about academically, and they don't have a whole lot going on athletically.
Bad news for two reasons. First, and most important, I'm out of the survivor pool (but I'll have lots of company). Second, CU might be decent this season. We always seem to struggle against the Buffs in that final game of the season.

You damn well better remember the lucky button!
Driving for the win Prukop throws a pick in the endzone. CU should get the victory.

And yet they are miles ahead of Boise in both measurements.
OK, Sancho. We're now depending on you. It'd be a shame if something went wrong and we had to hold you accountable. Probably a good idea for your lucky button and you to keep that in mind.

Arizona is just gashing Washington's Defense. Scary.
Boise is a very good truck driving school. And most of their school budget goes into football.
Shut the fuck up. Oregon State had a top five finish, won the Pac 10, and beat Notre Dame in the Fiesta Bowl (41-9) as recently as 2001. And they had to play real teams for an entire season, unlike those Boise teams ever have had to do. And academics does matter. Does Boise even have graduate programs? Oregon State has a solid basketball tradition. Go back more than 15 years and it has a better history than the Ducks.
I think it's extremely déclassé and ingracious and lacking in self-awareness for Ute fans to be throwing stones at schools outside California and Seattle. Stop acting like a nouveau riche prick.
There's as much basis for wanting to trade Arizona State for Boise as Oregon State.

Oregon State also buried Boise the last time they played one another in a bowl, in 2013.

Also, winning the CWS x 2 has to count for something.

LOL, even with over 6,000 posts you're not really a valuable contributor to the board until the smartest guy in the room has descended from his lofty perch to dress you down. Cheer up, you've finally arrived!
PS. He's right. As a whole BSU can't hold OSU's jockstrap or pocket calculator.

I agree!!!
I don't know why come Monday or Tuesday my mind starts to think that things might not be as bad as they are and that Oregon has a good chance to win on Saturday. Falk could throw for 700+ on Saturday night.
I like the ducks this week. They should play with a Chip on their shoulder (too soon?) and Wazzu has a way of making you believe they have turned a corner before crapping the bed.
