Almost six years since this happened
USC is an underdog in a Pac-10 game for the first time since Nov 17, 2001. On that glorious Saturday, USC beat UCLA 27-0 in Pete’s first season at the helm. Now, Oregon is just a 3-point favorite this weekend at Autzen (I thought it was going to be at least 5) so Vegas goes [...]

As the last Saturday in October approaches, a couple of “experts” are already making their picks for this weekend’s games: Dan Shanoff, formerly of ESPN.com’s Page 2 and now a weekly College Football contributor at Deadspin likes Ohio State over Penn State, Oregon over USC, Cal over ASU, Florida over Georgia at the Cocktail Party, [...]

Hey Urban Poet: Chuck Weis is listed at around 350lbs so I think that is right. Also, the “Dwarf from Shreveport” was left on the sideline all day so that also helped out a lot. Oh and there are no Division-I offensive players playing currently for Notre Dame. So, Ohio State dominated Michigan St for [...]

Each week ESPN.com has 2 CF writers pick the bowl games. Until SC lost to Stanford, they had all picked the Trojans for the title game; now, after the close call against Arizona, Ivan Maisel has SC against OU in the Fiesta Bowl and Mark Schlabach has SC going down I-5 to San Diego to [...]

Okay, here we go. As soon as you think that you might want to not watch much college football this weekend 7 of the Top 15 lose. #1 USC left all of their crisp play in LA and squeaked by U-Dub by 3. SC looked terrible and I would not be surprised if LSU is [...]

Tonight: ESPN2 West Virginia at South Florida and as much as I want USF to win, I just don’t think they can stop PatSlatonSteveWhite. Saturday: ABC Regional Cal at Oregon—be prepared for Dan Fouts’ homerism to get out of control when the Ducks play well. However, I think that Oregon has proven that when they [...]

Okay, so this weekend’s games look awful after the Friday night West Virginia/South Florida battle. Now, I know you will say, “Wait—Cal is at Oregon!” And yes, if you live in Californa, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Nevada, or Idaho you will get to see that game. (If you have GamePlan, of course, then you are set.) [...]

We already know that USC would be a three-point favorite over LSU. Well, it turns out that we’d also be five-point favorites over Oregon, six-point favorites over Cal, and 20-point favorites over UCLA. But would we be favored over Oklahoma?
