Guessing ESPN is using their 6 day option as I believe Fox used a similar option earlier in the season.
Arizona vs USC seems like the better television option if Arizona and USC win next weekend. In that scenario UofA is on fire with their new dynamic QB and USC is still relevant to win the Pac-12 South.
However, Arizona could easily lose to WSU and USC definitely could lose to ASU. In that scenario, Stanford v WSU becomes a more interesting Pac-12 game. Though I am not sure that Pac-12 North game will ever get the more desirable time slots given the other options.
So, my guess, is that some network is now waiting on the 10/28 results.
