BostonCard - 11-28-2014
So, looks like Arizona is going to the Pac-12 championship game. Interesting that on the decisive fourth and twelve, Arizona rushed three, and forced an incompletion despite not getting much pressure. Not saying it was the right call, but sometimes it does work.
As an aside, anyone else think that Oregon is cursing its luck? I would imagine Arizona, who has beaten Oregon the last two years, is the last team that Oregon wanted to face in the Pac-12 championship. It's a chance for redemption, and Oregon should still be favored... but Arizona has matched up well against the Ducks of late.

Nah, I think Oregon's looking forward to the rematch the way we were hoping for a rematch against SC early in the season.

It certainly makes it an intriguing match up, and it also sure seems an Arizona that beat Oregon twice would have a good case for a playoff spot...

I'd like to see Oregon win. Arizona is not advancing to the top 4 even with a win here. There are too many teams ahead of them (TCU, Baylor, Ohio St, etc.).Â

Oregon is a bigger recruiting threat. Go Cats.

If we start beating Oregon again, they're not much of a threat anymore. Plus, Stanford is on a whole other tier from Oregon as a complete package...

Stanford won the Pac 12 North last year when Arizona upset Oregon. I am happy to return the favor.

Indeed! Curious, this mirror image season between divisions...
