I seriously had to Wiki it
I’m an avid sports fan, but baseball is somewhat of an exception. I haven’t followed it with any regularity since high school. I thought the best player would be Albert Pujols or Josh Hamilton or somebody
But I know about the transfer of Tennessee’s third string strong safety and of the talks between both North London clubs and the Trotters over Gary Cahill.

The Pac-12 considers the Rose Bowl to be the premier bowl to attend. Mostly because it’s where the Pac-12 champ plays the Big 10 champ. So, when the Huskies were particularly bad, I’d pick a Big 10 team I’d rather see win the Rose Bowl over, say, USC.

I wonder if the SEC/B36 might’ve passed the Pac-12 rivalry though. Lotta hate on both sides

Speaking of the Big Sky, Washington plays Eastern Washington this weekend. Eastern won the national championship in what used to be D-I AA. So, it could be a pretty good matchup, actually.

yeah, I saw that
actually opened with the same line as UT/Montana (18.5), but then UT shot up to 29 point favorites, and UDub is still only 18.
But I think I’m irrationally favorable towards Washington this year. Everybody expects a dropoff, but I think Sark is a good coach, they return a hell of a lot of starters, and sometimes losing your best player causes the rest of the team to pull together and stop relying on someone else to get the job done. UT won our national title the year after Peyton Manning graduated. Still, I think UDub could be a legit top 25 team this year

I like to think so, but I’m biased. So long as they improve from last year – and they beat Wazzu, of course – I’ll be happy. I’m waiting for Montana to get the starting QB job and see what he can do.

well, as you can see by my last line
I’m teetering on the brink of calling for Carolina to make it. it’s a pretty rough battle for those last couple spots with the Habs, Rags, Sabres, and Devils. I’m 50/50 on them.
Caps are probably the #1 seed again, because Washington knows regular seasons, and the Bolts are around 5 or 6.
