I think Les Miles has it wrong about the SEC being the best conference in all of college football. All of a sudden, the Pac-10 has three teams in the Top 10. SEC? Only two (or one, depending on the poll). Granted, USC may now be overrated, but Cal and Oregon have a good shot at a BCS bowl or the National Championship. If the Trojans turn things around after being upset at home to Stanford, they too will be in the mix. The wildcard is Arizona State. They almost blew in Pullman against the Washington State Cougars yesterday. The Sun Devils are good, but I still don't think they're THAT good. Dennis Erickson is a hell of a coach though, so no one should turn their back on ASU.
The next three weeks will be very telling about this year's Ducks. Oregon gets Wazzu and USC at Autzen, but has to go to Seattle to face a pesky Husky team. I have renewed enthusiasm about our Ducks, and I hope, now that the bye week is behind them, that they will too.
