So top to bottom I see this: records are assuming most likely scenario next week
1. USC 10-2 (7-2) - class of Pac 10 again now that they're healthy
2. ASU 10-2 (7-2)- benefit from Oregon woes and have Az at home to finish season
3. Oregon State 8-4 (6-3)- gets Oregon away this week but without Dixon or even possibly Leaf and Stewart is still hurt
4. Oregon 8-4 (5-4) Oregon will lose 3rd straight to OSU
5. UCLA 6-6 (5-4) UCLA USC this week, USC dominates
6. Cal 7-5 (4-5) Lost 5 of last 6, at Stanford stranger things have happened, they could finish 6-6 and (5-5)

We will not play UCLA again with them on our schedule next year, both ADs will not allow it

Cal is our likely foe but they're playing terrible- problem is they have nothing to lose against us and have home run threats on offense, it would not be a gimmee to a 7-5 team - terrible matchup no reward

I'd love to play Oregon for the simple fact that we'd roll them again, but to be honest it wouldn't be a game worth watching without Dennis Dixon and Jonathan Stewart healthy

So unless the Vegas bowl balks and gets a shot at grabbing Boise State or Hawaii, we're stuck with a bowl eligible pac 10 team playing bad ball right now. It will be Cal or Oregon- again the Vegas bowl and the collective ADs will not allow a UCLA rematch this year......it would be a terrible business decision

I'm rooting for Washington to beat Hawaii at Hawaii, so then we could roll Hawaii on our 2nd home field.....I assure you if Hawaii doesn't get a BCS bid, the Vegas bowl will make some phone calls and try to make that happen....

And don't even try to talk about BCS this year.....maybe....if we had beaten UCLA or Tulsa when we should have....but not now

I'd like to play Oregon just because of Belotti's comments last year about us after getting clobbered. It would be fun to rub it into his face and show him we could beat them year after year and not just when we have a NFL caliber quarterback.

I'll bet Bronco is rolling over sleepless every night, wondering if he had his team better prepared for Tulsa, where we'd be right now.
He openly acknowledged that the coaches lost that game, and I couldn't agree more. I LOVE BRONCO, but you have to ask yourself where we'd be if we were prepared for that game.

Regardless, I certainly hope the Vegas bowl pulls some strings and gets a decent matchup out of this upset mania in the NCAAs. BYU deserves some recognition and an opponent that has earned the right to play us.

A win against Tulsa would have meant an earlier listing amongst the country's top 20. We still needed an undefeated season for BCS consideration

If there was ever a year BYU could have earned a BCS bowl bid, it was this crazy year of upsets....DARN

No way. BYU would have easily earned a BCS bid this year with one loss to either UCLA or Tulsa. It wouldn't have even been close.
