It's coming into view! Good Thursday games with TxST and Troy, then a really nice set of game in the evening! Underrated matchup: #7 Illinois at undefeated Minnesota...

 

The PAC-12 slate is immense this week: everyone plays and we're FULLY in Conference football now.

 

#1 California (3-0) at Oregon (1-2) - The Bears jumped back up to #1, but will get a stern test from Oregon who may have figured things out...? CAL Defense is arguably the best in the country. CAL by 14.

 

Washington (2-2) at Oregon State (1-1) - Two teams that didn't entirely expect to have digits in the loss column this early. Oregon State is more talented, but do they have the coaching to match the Dawgs? The Corvallis Crew get the win here in a tight one.

 

USC (1-2) at Washington State (1-3) - SHOCKED both teams only have 1 win. USC's monster passing O will have a field day against a Cougs D giving up boatloads of yards and points.

 

UCLA (1-3) at Stanford (2-1) - Stanford, picked to finish near the bottom of the Conference, is a pleasant surprise at 2-1. UCLA has quite a bit of talent, but was unable to slow down Arizona last week. Stanford does not have the weapons Zona does....UCLA rolls.

 

#6 Arizona (3-0) at Colorado (2-2) - QB Humphrey for the Cats is already the favorite for Conference POY. Colorado had one REALLY bad defensive game against UNC, but has otherwise kept things close, and low-scoring. Home cooking for the Buffs also keeps this close...until the 4th, when the Cats pull away.

 

Arizona State (1-1) at Utah (2-2) - ASU just needs reps under its belt to figure out the squad. Last week's squeaker loss to COLO really stung, and the Sun Devils will take it out on Utah, who SOMEHOW has 2 wins. ASU big.

Spicy pick to call UCLA rolling over Stanford...
