In the BootPool I have Utah covering, but that's as far out on the limb as I'm willing to go.  We will have no idea until game time if the Oregon game got to the heads of the Utes

3. Dyke.s is not being factored in as a big game coach enough. 

I suppose Dyke.s is bound to win a big game sooner or later. But he hasn't won one yet. Let's see if he can win a big game before anointing him as a "big game coach."

Hey, what do you know, two teams Low APR U beat that nobody thought anything about, both just knocked off #10 and #17 AP-ranked teams this weekend.  Will the Cougs now take down the Ducks to suggest how overrated Utah is?

So far, it looks like the Ducks are running all over the Cougs, and that vaunted WSU offense is not doing all that much against the suspect Oregon secondary.

Nope, ducks up 31-21 on the team that Cal had trouble beating.  The same ducks that were destroyed by Utah.

Though to be fair the Ducks haven't exactly made it look easy -- Oregon looks pretty vulnerable. (Not that that's news to anyone.)

Just as I wrote that the cougs drive the length of the field and have second and goal from the 5, but settle for a field goal.

Cougars with an amazing last minute touchdown drive to tie the game 31-31 at the end of regulation.

They converted several brobdingnagian 4th downs.

Overtime!

After the holding penalty on that last series it looked like Oregon just gave up.

Well, you can at least see why I thought Ca.l would win.  Never fathomed Goff could throw five picks in a game and Kenny Lawler would drop balls he always catches.  But even with 6 total turnovers, Ca.l lost by 6 and was 21 yards from winning at the end.  Utah is a good team.  Cal is a good team.  A good team won.

Sorry, but you didn't say "Cal might win," or "Cal will win if.." You said they WILL. You also said that Goff himself would beat Utah singlehandedly.

Yes, I did say that.  I was convinced they would win.  I was wrong.  But, as noted, there was plenty of evidence in that game to demonstrate why I felt as I did.

They are overrated.  But that doesn't mean they suck. The thing that stinks for Ca.l is they kind of demonstrated they are underrated, but tough to give much love to a team that gags on itself like the Bares did tonight.

Leftcoast, you just about nailed it!  (31-24) But i wasn't too far off either (28-24).

Thanks, TC.  Just lucky though - I sure wouldn't have picked that score if you told me Cal would throw 5 interceptions! 

The good news is I'm a lot less worried about meeting Utah should Stanford make it to the title game.

UR right that Utah did not look like a #5 team tonight; but I am happy they won.  Love that Goff suffered those 5 picks after announcers were practically slobbering all over him during the first half.  Yuck.
