    Pac-12 Survivor Thread 2.0: Everyone is Eligible!

    OK, so OrangeUte won the Big Contest after only six weeks. So, why not have a second contest this year? The same rules apply with one caveat: (1) you have to pick a winner each week (2) you can only choose any particular team to win once and (3) you can only select against each team once. (3b) Because there are only 8 games left, I'm not letting people pick against Colorado. We will also use the bowl season to eliminate those who survive the next 8 weeks.

    Here's the grid of all the games so that you can plot your games: http://www.utahby5.com/showthread.ph...fficial-Thread

    This week's games:

    USC @ Arizona
    Oregon @ UCLA
    UW @ Cal
    WSU @ Stanford

    Good luck!

    In a game with no offensive lines I'll take Oregon. This weeks games are hard to pick.

    One thing I have learned in a long life: that all our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike -- and yet it is the most precious thing we have.

    --Albert Einstein

    The fact that life evolved out of nearly nothing, some 10 billion years after the universe evolved out of literally nothing, is a fact so staggering that I would be mad to attempt words to do it justice.

    --Richard Dawkins

    Be kind to all, for everyone you meet is fighting a great battle.

    --Philo

    “It only ends once. Anything that happens before that is just progress.”

    Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

    --Antoine de Saint-Exupery

    "Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold."
    --Yeats

    “True, we [lawyers] build no bridges. We raise no towers. We construct no engines. We paint no pictures - unless as amateurs for our own principal amusement. There is little of all that we do which the eye of man can see. But we smooth out difficulties; we relieve stress; we correct mistakes; we take up other men's burdens and by our efforts we make possible the peaceful life of men in a peaceful state.”
