Oregon State got annihilated by LSU at home, 55-87.

#12 LSU has been criticized for having a very soft schedule versus cupcake teams,
but if this game was any indication of how good they are, they are definitely
deserving of their current #12 ranking.

The game was in Hawaii.  Yes, LSU looks good, but this is a seriously down year for Oregon State, I think.  They already have 4 losses and none of their wins have been impressive--a net of 64.  LSU has a net of 2--ahead of Stanford at 3, behind South Carolina.  Yup, LSU is for real, more is the pity.

In reviewing the Pac 12, the computers give us some interesting rankings with NET.

3 Stanford
5 Utah (ahead of UConn at 6)
9 Oregon
25 UCLA
29 Arizona
39 Colorado
42 SC
53 WSU
64 Oregon State
79 California
115 Washington
122 Arizona State

I suspect that Arizona and UCLA will climb further.  Utah is a very dangerous team, and it will be quite interesting to see how they fare in league play.  They certainly dispatched Colorado.
