Pompous Pac-10 Picks – Week 3
This week, you’ll just have to indulge a little OTP ego because I’m pretty sure this is about the only time I’ll be able to show it off. Kind of went undefeated last week. As in, 8-0 straight up and 5-0 against the spread. Coincidentally, I moved to Las Vegas at 11:00 p.m. on Saturday night. [...]
Mandates for Oregon (And They Thought They Had it Easy)
Oregon takes on FCS opponent Portland State but the blog has some mandates to keep this thing interesting.
Get Your Measuring Stick Out. Pac-10′s Got a Big Weekend
College football is confusing. One week, you’ve got a reputable east coast publication calling out the Pac-10 for its lack of an alpha dog and stating that the current state of the conference “isn’t great on the field” (ACC was jealous of the glowing review). The next, there’s a whole bunch of smart writers ranking [...]
Ranking the Pac-10 – Week 2: Oregon an Easy Choice
That’s what I’m talkin’ ’bout Pac-10! A 7-0 weekend in non-conference games and five ranked teams. This conference is for real… until next Saturday anyway.
Will Tennessee Put Up a Fight?

But Tennessee is rebuilding, Oregon is decidedly not and now the Ducks go into massive Neyland Stadium as heavy favorites. And the question has become, can Tennessee hang?
Possibly Perfect Pac-10 Picks – Week 2
Ah, Thursday. The college football week is finally back after…two whole days of nothing. UCLA, you ruined what would have been a perfect start to the year. Gone are my hopes of season-long perfection, but intact is my pursuit of weekly excellence. Posted spreads are from sportsbook.com at time of publishing. Colorado @ California Larry [...]
Is Justin Wilcox Really A Problem?
Oregon may be playing an SEC team Saturday, but they might as well be preparing for the WAC. While you might think that’s a stinging statement about the current state of the Volunteers football program, it’s actually where the Ducks are going to find most of Tennessee’s game film. That’s because new Tennessee coach Derek [...]
Link Roundup
Tryin’ to get some more link love passed out there this year. It’s not all-encompassing, rather just some selected links found nationally and locally. I’ll probably give a little extra love to under-the-radar stuff. Gotta’ take care of your own, ya’ know? Still need a flashy name for the feature so if you have an [...]
