The results of the pre-season media poll has been published. You know that the race is wide open when 70% of the teams receive a 1st place vote. Who is the EUTM who predicts Stanford to win it all?
1. Oregon (15)... 314
2. USC (12)... 311
3. Oregon State (3)... 262
4. Stanford (1)... 233
5. Arizona (2)... 222
6. Washington (1)...209
7. California... 175
8. UCLA (1)... 134
9. Arizona State... 81

That EUTMer must be counting on a continuing trend of incarcerations at Oregon, the continuing collapse of Troy (burrrrnnnn), and Jacquizz Rodgers forgetting how to run.
But hey, I\'ll take it if it happens.

It worries me that Kal isn\'t getting any pub...at all. They have better athletes than that....and an experienced, if mercurial, QB.
Yep. Whole lot of Kal fans agree: Riley is poison - Redrum - 07-29-2010

I\'m with you, CI.
Cal could be very very good this year, especially if Riley plays consistently well (like he did against Stanford in last year\'s Big Game).

C.al also has a favorable schedule. Â 5 conference home games and one road trip to Pullman. Â A team that goes 6-3 will not finish 7th.

I think that the bloom (literally and figuratively) is off Kal\'s rose (hopes)....I think UW will be the upside surprise this year (although the stats say a new coach\'s second year is worse than his first).
OSU will probably do worse and UCLA will probably do a little better.
And down in Az, the true illiegal alien whose papers should/will be checked and deported is Dennis Erickson.
I fear that Stanford will largely tread water at 3rd-4th.

I think Stanford finishes 2nd or 3rd, possibly 1st. Â I see an improved squad from last year. Â While teams won\'t have to deal with Toby, they\'ll have to deal with a very strong running team, an improved Luck, and a team that now has a winning mentality. Â As long as JH doesn\'t have too many brain farts at inopportune times, they could take the Pac.

So much depends on how we develop on defense...It could be roses or 7th place.

Nail hit on head. Â Our success on any given day depends on who lines up behind center: Â Good Kevin or Bad Kevin. Â I\'ve been watching football for around 45 years now, and I\'d be hard pressed to name a more schizophrenic QB. Â Enjoy Andrew Luck while he\'s around...
