Games over the weekend

Sometimes it's nice just to get a weekend to size up the competition. That Duck game was crazy. They were lucky and good at the same time. Just a crazy game.

The uproar over the refs is here:

FWIW, the Sooners got screwed.

The other shocker was UW beating Fresno St. at home. That surprised me a bit. I don't think it proves much except that the Huskies are dangerous. However, they can still implode just like they have been in the last few years. One win does not a season make.

Nonetheless, the Husky fans are getting excited. And one writer thinks they have a good shot at a bowl game. That's probably true. I tought it was interesting how he couched the Beavs. After one loss, somehow the Beavers are in the class of Stanford and Arizona.

Bowl game within reach - The Daily Herald

Washington State has been inconsistent everywhere and Arizona, Oregon State and especially Stanford have just not been good.

In fact, it's possible the Huskies could be favored against the Beavers and Cardinal.


Wow. I guess the blowout win vs. E. Washington means nothing and the blowout loss to Boise St. means we're terrible. OK. I'm still on a wait and see approach to this season. But I don't see how you can make an assumption like that after OSU has played a grand total of 2 games.

Anyways, I hope the Huskies don't make a bowl game because that is one thing we don't need around here: powerful Husky and Duck teams.

Well at least the Pac-10 is finally starting to realize that their officals are inept

No kidding. The fallout is unbelievable. Refs resigning, suspensions. Hate to say it, but we've know the Pac-10 refs have been below average for years.
