![]() | Did not play this week but the stat padding is expected to continue against a beleaguered ASU. | |
![]() | Took care of business in a nice bounce back from the scare at Baylor. The Ute's haven't been healthy to start the year, but good teams get by unscathed which they accomplished. | |
![]() | Easily handled San Diego State as the Beavers enter conference play. Up next is the Pac-2 Championship game vs WSU. | |
![]() | Pennix put up 473 yards and 4 TDs in his return to BIG country. Washington has been very impressive and should be undefeated when they host Oregon next month. | |
![]() | Oregon has been putting up some stellar numbers on offense. I’m expecting a high scoring conference opener vs Colorado. | |
![]() | Washington State enters conference play as the ultimate conference dark horse. They’ve been fairly impressive with wins against Wisconsin and beating a pesky Colorado State. | |

![]() | The Bruins really haven’t been tested but that all changes next week with a visit to Salt Lake City and the Utes. | |
![]() | The media darlings barely avoided disaster at home with College Gameday in the house. Deion gets his first taste of real P5 football in Eugene next Saturday. Let’s see if the hype is truly real. | |
![]() | Fisch has continually improved in his first couple seasons in Tucson. UTEP was overmatched against the Wildcats who will look to improve to 3-1 with a game against an underwhelming Stanford on Saturday. | |

![]() | Things looked a little squirmy at the half for Cal. The Golden Bears turned things around and finished the job vs Idaho. | |

![]() | 8 turnovers and the first home shutout since the 1980’s. The only bright spot is a defense that came to play, somehow keeping Fresno State to only 29 points. | |
![]() | Sacramento State is a good FCS school, so good that in fact Stanford took their coach last season. Needless to say Stanford will be hard pressed to find another win on their schedule. | |
The bottom two are reversible and essentially set in stone for the rest of the season. With so many ranked teams this year, the start of conference play has a great opening slate. |
