Pac-10: Oregon squashes OSU's Rosey dreams
The Oregon State football team came armed with home-field advantage and great hope, but no Jacquizz Rodgers or any detectable defense. The tradeoff was not nearly enough to secure an elusive Rose Bowl berth.
Week 14: Washington State at Hawaii
People typically take a Hawaiian vacation to get away from it all, but the Cougars will probably suffer once more before they can head for the beach or go snorkeling. After all, they’re not playing Washington this weekend.
Pac-10: Cougars wake up, win Apple Cup
On a Pac-10 weekend in which Oregon State nearly squandered its Rose Bowl hopes but survived and Stanford relinquished all bowl possibilities, once unresponsive and barely breathing Washington State defeated Washington.
Week 13: Washington at Washington State
This is undeniably the Rotten Apple Cup. There hasn’t been a worse pairing for these once competitive Northwest rivals in the 100-game series. No matter how this game is sized up, the team that comes up short in this epic gains the unwanted distinction as one of college football’s all-time biggest losers.
Five burning questions: Week 13
There's big games all across the map in Week 13 and Athlon's editors answer questions about the Apple Cup, Oklahoma-Texas Tech andmore in this week's Five Burning Questions.
Week 12 National Notebook
Vanderbilt became eligible for its first bowl since 1982 and Baylor knocked off Texas A&M for the second time in five years. Mitch Light looks at these teams and more in his Week 12 National Notebook.
Pac-10: Favorites roll in Week 12
There was really no mystery to Pac-10 football over the weekend, with each of the five match-ups turning lopsided and decisive in some manner, even if some of the final margins didn’t indicate it.
Week 12: Washington State at Arizona State
Arizona State gets a bye this week, the one where a Pac-10 team pulls on the jersey and pads, drops in a stance and, without too much effort, blows through a Washington State entry that puts up no fight whatsoever.
Week 11 National Notebook
Utah moved to 10-0 after a big victory against TCU while Texas Tech and Alabama won the two highest-profile games of the weekend. Mitch Light takes you across the college football landscape in his Week 11 national notebook.
Pac-10: Milestones aplenty on the West Coast
It was a weekend of milestones across the Pac-10, with Arizona becoming bowl eligible for the first time in 10 seasons, Oregon State completing a sweep of the Los Angeles schools for just the second time in school history, Arizona State averting a school-record seventh setback in a row and Washington losing for a school-record 11th consecutive game.
Week 11: Arizona at Washington State
The rejuvenated Wildcats come to the Northwest, looking to make history, seeking to become bowl eligible for the first time under coach Mike Stoops and for the first time in a decade. The totally disconnected Cougars already have made unwanted history under their first-year leader Paul Wulff.
Week 10 National Notebook
Texas Tech pulled out a thrilling victory over hated rival Texas this week while Florida and Syracuse won big games as well. Mitch Light looks at these teams and more in the Week 10 version of his national notebook.
Pac-10: Beavers clinging to Rose Bowl hopes
There’s a widespread disparity between the top and the bottom teams in the conference. While the Washington schools remain abject embarrassments, USC, Cal and, yes, Oregon State come down the stretch as heavyweights, each tightly holding on to Rose Bowl hopes, none tighter than the Beavers.
Game Day, Part II
This afternoon, Tim Tebow and Florida dominated Georgia at the “World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party” in Jacksonville, while Pittsburgh outlasted Notre Dame in quadruple overtime, Georgia Tech wrecked an FSU comeback and Washington State was blanked by Stanford.
Week 10: Washington State at Stanford
The Cougars keep turning 60, and it’s getting old. They’ve coughed up 63 points or more in four of their five conference outings. Only offensive-challenged UCLA has failed to take advantage of this overly generous stop unit. Stanford’s offense has to be salivating.
Week 9 National Notebook
Teams of the week Penn State and Georgia picked up wins in marquee matchups while Texas Tech rolled over Kansas on the road. Mitch Light takes a look around the college football landscape in his Week 9 National Notebook.
Pac-10: Defense comes up big for USC
USC played like a championship caliber team when it needed to against Arizona this weekend while Oregon and Cal won conference games and Washington's Ty Willingham failed to defeat his former team.
Under The Radar: Week 9
The Big 12, Big Ten and SEC all have marquee match-ups this weekend. But the battle for Pac-10 supremacy will also take place in Tuscan, Arizona. Mike Stoops and Co. are set to take on the USC Trojans late Saturday night.
