Overall: 34 - 20
Okay, I don't think anyone saw Oregon State turning BYU into a pedestal to get into the BCS rankings. This never-started-a-game quarterback, Cody Vaz...wow. Well done job, Beavers. I was so wrong about you guys; I mean, I figured you'd be able to surprise Wisconsin and all, but what the?!? Civil War ain't looking to be very civil, this year, especially since it's at Reser Stadium.
This week, the only thing close to an upset would be Washington at Arizona. Heck, they're probably thrilled to be in the Southwest, out of the sudden cold that has descended upon us with the passing of the recent rains. Washington can be really good if it is prepared -- see my prediction that Stanford would be upset by UW -- but they're going up against a spread, and let's face it, Huskies just can't handle speed, this year.
Colorado is just what the Trojans needed to make the second-half push. The defense is clicking so well, I honestly think they might come very close to getting a shutout at home. The only thing holding back a shutout, would be Kiffin putting in reserves in the 4th; but as they say, the Trojans' 75 are better than your 85. We'll see what happens.
Home teams win, except ASU...because we all know that even though ASU has a better defense this year without Vontaze Burfict (and a coach that wouldn't discipline him), they're going up against Oregon.
