THE PAC12 Thread

[Ironbreaker]

Apparently Colorado is trying to replace the Fresno game with Hawaii. would give Hawaii 13 games, Colorado 12 and leave Fresno at 11

That would be odd. Got a link?

Just like Oregon fans have been hearing about it from Oklahoma fans!!

Well that's a given when Oregon is involved!

I got Stanford going undefeated, taking the Pac title.

You could be right, Tide, but in my opinion, anyone who does not take Oregon is just not with it. As I see it, it looks like you'll be playing Oregon in the NCG. No one left who can beat either. Just remember you needed 35 to beat AM. That won't hack it against UO.

Everyone said that last year and yet they lost. Everyone thought Bama couldn't be beat and yet they lost last season. Conference schedules are always tough to run without a loss unless you play in the B1G or maybe the Big 12.

As for what it takes to beat Oregon, I do believe most of the teams that have beaten them have done so without scoring over 35 points. It takes disciplined defense and preventing the home run plays far more than it is about running up the score at their pace. If you engage in an offensive race with them you will lose pretty much every time. If you need over 35 points to beat them you have already lost.

Best way to avoid controversy, Sting.

Don't stretch it, Whiz, not everybody said Bama couldn't be beat but most said ND would be, yet who ended up in the NCG? This year I'm picking Bama and Oregon, or if Bama can't hack their mediocre schedule (they will), then tOSU and Oregon to the NCG. The fly in that ointment could be Clemson.

Prayers from all of my family in Beaverton,OR.

if he names the cancer the Ducks I am sure he will beat it. Like the Ohio State kid that named his cancer Michigan.

Please don't interpret that in poor taste. I am rooting for one hell of a Pacific Northwest Legend.

God Bless Don James and his family while dealing with this.

They been putting our big asses on tv damn near every game for 20 years. Front row en sech.

 

[wazzu31]

Well, there's that and, ya know, the refs seeing it and blowing the whistle, signifying the play was dead...

Even if the refs "blew it" I think they actually would've had a case for the refs to discuss it with themselves had Wisconsin not acted like there was a minute left on the game clock. They weren't even fully set for the spike so how can you blame that on the refs?
