Tier: National Contender
1 (+1)

I can't justify them not being first anymore. They've had a comparatively easier schedule than Washington, but they're still dominating each and every week. They deserve to be 1.

2 (-1)

They have survived time and time again and under brutal conditions, but at this point, there's only so many excuses for all of these close games. I think it's possible for them to beat Oregon in a neutral field, but highly unlikely.

Tier: Championship Contender

Team's been kicking ass and they still have a chance to make the conference championship. If only they didn't lose to USC.

Tier: Upper Echelon of Cannibalism
4 (0)

If they lose to Oregon, then they'll have lost to every team in the PNW.

5 (0)

Imagine what this team would be like if they had a fully healthy squad.

Tier: Mid
6 (+3)

They keep winning the games they are supposed to win.

7 (+1)

How does a team go from losing to ASU at home to beating USC away?

Tier: Bottom Half of Cannibalism
8 (-2)

Lincoln Riley is a fraud.

9 (-2)

Tough loss. The UCLA win gives them some credibility.

10 (0)

They are better than Colorado and Washington State.

11 (+1)

Wow, I don't think anyone was expecting a blowout like that. Where has this energy been all season?

Tier: Bottom Feeder

Deion is a joke. Dude wasn't even wearing a headset all game. He's going to be 1-8 in conference play which is sad for someone who had so much hype. Have fun being stuck with this team next year.

Oregon is 1 for now. They have shown no holes since losing to Washington while Washington is just scraping by. UW survived a gauntlet but hasn't had a blowout game since Cal. They get the job done and who knows, maybe they could pull an upset against Oregon. They haven't shown that they can't yet. Cal has moved above UCLA because they have shown to be more consistent while Washington State also gets to move up a tier after that solid performance.
