The PAC 12 is killing themselves this year. Both the ranked teams lost last night to their in-state rivals and two more ranked teams are going to lose today. Not a great year for them.

In what ranking?

Neither UW nor UAZ were ranked in the Top 25 in either AP or Coaches Polls.

They were both ORVs.

Sagarin had ASU as his #17 team in his Predictor Model this week making them a 1.5 pt fav over his #28 team, UAZ, in Tucson.

Sagarin had UW #36 and WSU #96 but aren't "Pirates" supposed to turn the tables on the favorites?

The Pac 12 beats themselves up because they don't play a conference schedule full of Western Carolinas nor set up to minimize the big dawgs facing each other like the SEC does.

Some people call that poor national title scheduling; others call it smash mouth CONFERENCE scheduling.

The BCS?
2012 NCAA College Football Polls and Rankings for Week 13 - ESPN
NCAA Polls - College Football BCS Top 25 Poll | FOX Sports on MSN
NCAA College Football Rankings - CBSSports.com
BCS: News, highlights and insights into the Bowl Championship Series

Since the conference's best wins outside of the conference have been against Ok St, Wisconsin, Nebraska?
Just because they win in the conference doesn't really show anything in relation to the NATIONAL picture.

I believe strongly in the law of averages and that every weekend of college football a Top 5 team has to go down. That's why I'm scared out of my mind right now. Georgia took care of business. LSU won yesterday. Alabama is crushing Auburn.

We really need Florida State to beat Florida and/or Oregon State to beat Oregon.

I was really hoping Georgia or Alabama would lose today but that's not going to happen.

There's just no way that this crazy college football season is going to enter the final weekend with a clear national title picture (i.e. ND vs. Alabama/Georgia winner). that would be too easy. I'm scared stiff right now that we might be the big time upset of the day today.

Go Noles!

16-10 4Q

Edit: Well the 4Q was correct but that was all. It should have read 20-16.

I replayed it several times on the DVR and you heard it the way I did. I can't get any other word to fit in with his lips.

The caption feature deleted that line and only showed "They're a bunch of great kids"

Florida State leads 6-6 Georgia Tech 21-15 in the fourth quarter. It's pathetic how much talent is wasted in Tallahassee.
