I'm kinda disappointed in the oregon uniforms tonight...I was looking for some neon action tonight..thanks a lot chip.

This game is also proving even through all the change in offenses over the eras....football is still won in the trenches. USC has been winning in the trenches and really slowing oregon down. Much like LSU and Auburn did.

Love the Dline we are bringing in this year.

It would help because then Orgeon would definitely be in the Rose Bowl and not the title game. There's some concern if they went to the title game that the Rose Bowl would then take Stanford as an at large, while the Orange or Fiesta bowls would probably prefer us since Stanford has a small alumni base that doesn't travel well historically.

how do you blow that call officials?? He was out of bounds and juggled it the entire way. wow, pac 12 officials should be ashamed of this 1st half.

How would an Oregon loss put Stanford in the PAC 12 title game? One conference loss each, Oregon with the tie breaker.

Huge fumble at the end of the half for Oregon btw. Oklahoma is losing. A loss there would probably guarantee only one Big XII BCS bid.

Wow I come back from listening to Michigan's hockey game and I see USC beating oregon 24-7. Anyone watching this tennessee-vandy game? There's a little over 2 left, vandy just got the ball back and it's tied 21-21. I hope vandy pulls it out and beats them. Because that would make tennessee 4-7. The less SEC teams in bowl season, the better.

This is actually getting annoying. We could see 4 of the top 7 teams lose this weekend and get knocked out of the title hunt. That leaves LSU, Bama, and Arkansas as the top 3 teams. Get ready to hear all about the SEC this week!

I agree completely. I just die a little inside when I think about what it will be like to turn on ESPN at any point this next week because that will be all they talk about. Hopefully Auburn pulls out some magic in the Iron Bowl and LSU thrashes Arkansas. Then what?

vandy and tennessee going to overtime. usc goes up 31-14 on oregon. oklahoma and baylor tied at 17 in the 3rd. texas down 17-3 in the 3rd to k-state.

If Oklahoma fails to pull it out against Baylor, is there really even a point to a national championship game if LSU wins out? They will have wins against Bama, Arkansas, Oregon, and Georgia already. All four of those teams could very likely be top 10 teams. You are telling me if Bama pulls out a win they are somehow now the champions? I'd still consider LSU the best team.

Bama wouldn't have the Georgia or Oregon wins and also would have lost to LSU at home. They would be 2-1 against the top 10 with a home loss instead of 4-1 with a neutral loss. Again just my opinion, but I would still put my vote for LSU. 

If Oklahoma wins tonight, I think the Bedlam winner still has a good chance at the national championship game with a strong showing against K St in the Big XII championship game. Other than that, though...Stanford would probably be #3 or 4 and as much as I would like to see Luck playing that LSU secondary I don't think Stanford should be there.
