Week 8 review...9 Preview

Oregon destroyed ASU, Arizona destroyed Washington and USC destroyed Colorado. Oregon State survived a tough test from Utah and Stanford got a hard fought win at CAL. Sicne my predictions didn't post I can't really say I saw all this coming but last week may have been my first 5-0 week. Oh well. On to week 9!

*Game of the week*USC @ Arizona - This will be a high scoring feel bad for the defense type game. My heart tells me go with Arizona. I could see the offense of Rich Rod giving USC's defense fits. However, Matt Barkley and USC tasted defeate early in the season and have shown that taste was bitter. They have looked the team we thought they were at the begining of the year since losing. I see them scraping there way past Arizona 42-35. I just don't trust Arizona's defense as much as I want to.

UCLA @ ASU - Huge statement game. Winner of this game becomes bowl eligible and stays in the PAC-12 race. ASU took the Oregon loss and has had much more time to prepare. I think they beat UCLA just on home crowd advantage. 24-21

COLO @ ORE -Oregon will run past, and all over Colorado. A lot to a little. (52-10)

WSU @ STAN - Stanford will keep rolling. Beat Struggling WSU 24-10.

CAL @ UTAH - Cal runs into another bump on the road as Utah will beat them 27-13.

ORST @ WASH - Oregon State has passed all tests so far this year. This is another tough one as they travel to Washington. Washington was embarrassed by Arizona and looks to move on with what would be a big win over the 7th team in the country. Washington will be better but not better enough. ORST wins 21-17.
