I won't automatically get mad if Alabama gets in, depends on who's bumped.

In the coaches poll, Oregon is ahead of Alabama. Not only did Oregon beat Alabama, but the Quality wins are in Oregon's favor, San Diego State, Texas A & M, Alabama. Alabama has Illinois, Rutgers.

She could come, but Bevo can't. SEC keeps Texas mascot Bevo from title game vs. Georgia - ESPN WWW.ESPN.COM Bevo will not be on the sideline for Texas' matchup against Georgia in the SEC Championship Game because "there is not enough...

The Pac-10 did play everybody, talk about a specious argument. As HDuck points out, and the scheduling did Oregon no favors, they played the best of the B1G. If Indiana had been expected to do as well as they did, Oregon would have played them instead of Purdue.

Looking ahead to this week’s matchup, let’s check out the latest college football predictions from the Football Power Index computer prediction model.

Have you seen the scene in " The Untouchables" with Al Capone and the baseball bat?

I guess it wasn't in the Rules for this year. But call an audible and do it anyway. What would it hurt?

They have more quality wins than Indiana has.

Meanwhile, the best coach prowling a college football sideline is practically an afterthought. Wait, I thought Cignetti was the best coach. Great article, he takes every issue one might find with the unanimous No.1 and refutes them so even a...well no, no Husky fan will ever accept that they've been left in a Purple Haze

Quick look at UCLA. They're 7-1, haven't played a tough schedule, their best opponent, New Mexico, beat them. They're averaging 78.2 a game, giving up 53.1. Remember though this is against a schedule without a Quad 1 possible, except New Mexico. Two nights ago, the Bruins did beat Washington, 69-58.

I actually have to stop thinking about that! Every day!

Exactly, awful shooting game for Bamba, little production from Bittle, Angel has been off for the last several games and they still won. Anybody who has followed Altman knew exactly what he was going to say at halftime. His teams will never be complacent. Fortunately, again the problems were on offense, the defense has been there for all 9 games. It's amazing that this team has found the ability to take the hits early, not abandon the plan, and take over at the end, Altman's teams always get better as the season goes on, this one will too.

Lanning, softly, "We could have put 77 on you, you know that, right."

The Huskies definitely weren't the worst team that the Ducks played this season. Without self inflicted foibles early in the season against WSU and Rutgers, they're 8-3 going into the game. It wouldn't have made any difference in the outcome, but Purdue is the worst team. It was the perfect opportunity for the Ducks to unleash the defense on the dogs, who thought that starting a freshman QB, in his first game, against the No.1 team in the country, on the road, in the loudest stadium, was their best option,,, The defense was so destructive because it was proactive, not reactive, it forced the action. Whatever Washington tried to do, it wasn't going to work.

Never let a Husky Honk write Titles!

My thought exactly. The 1st half, nothing went right, but I never saw despair. I don't know what Tracey's T was. But the D was there the whole game. USC was happy, thought they were going to knock off No.12, give the Ducks their first loss. The Ducks knew they'd win.

Far from the reason the Ducks are behind, but down by 7, and the Trojans have 6 points on free throws because the Ducks twice fouled shooters attempting 3's!

Hey, this helps the Ducks' resume', Alabama 94 North Carolina 79. Now, get the ball to Bittle, and go Ducks!

Okay, I can hardly wait to see Penn State's uniform.

As always, I go immediate reaction, and I really like this! Especially for a night game. The helmets in particular are noticeably electrifying.

Final: Maryland 83 osu2 49 Buckeyes erupted for 32 in the 2nd half.

"Jeeez, we have to play Oregon every year?"

This is going to sound smug. But unlike the UW fans, it's based in reality. I was watching the B1G Signing Day Show, and they led off with the No.1 class the Ducks were assembling and then went on with the coaches of the other schools, like Fickell, and Locksley and Fisch, etc, etc, etc, and they'd talk, and the host would congratulate them on their 20th, 30th something class...how are they going to compete?

It's all for show. "March Madness" has 68 teams, and nothing is revealed until Selection Sunday, theirs's no chance a No.1 would rather be a No.5, and the 69th team is furious!

Is UCF Riley's "Dream School"? They are just making inquiries; we haven't lost him yet!
