Pac-12 and the Next Best 3, Week 11
As we approach this Veterans/Remembrance Day weekend, let's start
this week's blog with a sincere thank you to everyone who has ever
served in uniform. Your service, sacrifices, and the sacrifices of
your families honors us all.
We're now at the point in the season where BCS rankings start to
matter. Last week's showdown between Alabama and Louisiana State not
only produced an unsatisfying game, it produced a poll and BCS result
that is somewhat hard to take. When Oregon lost to Louisiana State in

Pac-12 and the Next Best 3, Week 10
Another week, another bowl eligible team. Washington became
eligible with their victory over Arizona, making them the Pac-12's
fourth eligible team. With three teams sitting at 4-4, with four
games to play, at least two more teams should qualify. Let's consider
the permutations:
Utah: at Arizona, UCLA, at Washington State, Colorado
UCLA: Arizona State, at Utah, Colorado, at Southern California
California: Washington State, Oregon State, at Stanford, at Arizona State
Which of these teams has the best shot at going at least 2-2? I'd
say Utah, although…

Pac-12 and the Next Best 3, Week 9
It's a bit early to talk about bowl season, but it's late enough to
see a few things developing. For the second year in a row the Pac 12
is at risk of not filling all of its bowl slots. The conference is
contracted to seven bowl games. At the moment there are two bowl
eligible teams (Stanford and Oregon) and two teams with five wins.
(Southern California would also be eligible were they not on
probation) In contrast, the Big Ten currently has six bowl eligible
teams, with one other team with five wins. Chances are extremely good
that Arizona State and…
