The PAC12 THREAD v.2

Little Native love for the Pirates den in the Pallouse.

I like this one. Think UCLA will when it is back in LA as well.

And for winning the 100th Grandaddy of them all, last but definitely not least

This beauty for Stanford...

That is some fantastic hardware you have posted up there mamba....

Well except for the WSU trophy. That one is unique and hand made each year. Never the same twice.

Now most of the conference needs to go out and actually win those. Think the Pac can take at least 7 of the bowls. Anything less than 7 would be disappointing IMO. And yes I'm putting UW as a potential loss.

For all I care the PAC can win one as long as the one is Oregon.

This us t the SEC. We shouldn't be nut swinging. It's gross

meh. Dont care. DOnt really like any of the PAC opponents this year enough to actively root for them.

As many of these PAC teams that win get extra love in pre season polls and that helps going into 2014.

I do like what Addazio has done@ Boston College and caught a couple of there games this year. That team is not a roll over and they play some really tough football.

SO I guess that game is one I dont care which way it goes.

Other than that..... No PAC bowl opponents I favor with my good eye.... Just my brown eye.

I'm not sure that saying how many we believe should win is actually nutswinging. That happens when you cheer and take credit for those wins. Simply handicapping the Pac's bowls is just not the same thing.

Why wouldn't we focus on the games we have the most knowledge in? Maybe people like Mamba are junkies enough to have a better idea of teams not from the Pac, but most of us see many/most of the Pac's games and have more idea about who they are than we do non Pac teams.

If you find it 'gross' to pick winners and losers from the Pac then I guess you should go back to dwelling on how many wins Oregon has over UW which is about all you guys are good for anymore.

Pick all you want. Just don't start chanting P12

I'm perfect happy if UDud OSewe and USC lose. I don't root for rivals

You really think I WANT Oregon to win? If you think we are on your ass for missing the BCS now, try losing the alamo and see what happens.

It may happen. Snowball Gate discipline is coming down

I'm similar. I pretty much end up rooting for 1 team or the other in bowl games. Makes it more interesting. Depending on who they are playing, I'm as likely to root for a PAC team as not.

Except UCLA, of course!!

I saw mamba thread about that, are they really busting players as well?

When players are dumping snow on retired professors and some random woman who dared to get out of her car when they were attacking it with snow, yeah they are handing down wrist slaps I'm sure. Wouldn't expect any to miss their bowl. That's now how they roll.

 

[yeodonie]

Looks like several suspensions may be coming

NCAA won't bring us down but snowballs will kill us

I wont be actively waving pom poms around watching the PAC. DOnt want SC, Stanford, or UW to win.

I do want OSU to win though. Give my sister and cousin a nice Christmas Eve gift en sech.

That's too bad, I don't think getting out of the car was very intelligent...

 

[yeodonie]

They were idiots. It's a couple misdemeanors

Disorderly conduct

Menacing or harassment

Kids high on adrenaline and fun in a group do dumb things

Lord of the Flies stupidity

Wait, so you blame the victims here?

I mean at first it was just kids being kids and having a snow war. They took it a little too far with blocking cars from being able to move and dumped snow on them. At that point getting out of your car to ask them to let you get to where you are going may not be something you or I would do, but that hardly means they deserved the actions from kids who are on the football team who should know better than to act in mob mentality in the internet age where every public action is going to end up on the nightly news.

Should they be suspended? No. They should run 50 sets of stadium stairs or something. I mean doesn't everyone expect thug like mentality from the ducks football players anyway? Not like they were really out of character.
