The conflicts start today.
Should a Stanford fan want UCLA or Oregon to win today?
If UCLA wins...
Oregon is just one bad game at USC away from falling behind Stanford and UofA.
However Stanford\'s chances for at-large BCS opportunities probably go away. Â And the conference gets more of that "Wacky Pac" type commentary
If Oregon wins...
Oregon solidifies its hold on the BCS invites and improves the odds of two BCS invites. A #1 Oregon helps the profile of the entire conference.
However, Stanford\'s odds of winning the conference get more bleak. Â
For me UCLA v Texas helps. Â Thanks to UCLA\'s win at Texas, UCLA can win without too many "Wacky Pac" emerging. Â And USC\'s Barkley to Woods combination is just solid enough that Oregon could stumble.
UCLA was devine agaist UW in 1999. Â Maybe they will help again in 2010. Â Go Bruins!
