Pac-12 on now. Not real exciting so far. Am I correct in thinking that we have a chance to play the loser of this game in the Alamo Bowl? That may create some intrigue for Cyclone fans.

Only touchdown so far is a defensive circus pick 6, and they are almost to the 4th quarter. ouch Neither team looks great to this point

Damn.

We could beat Utah or Washington in the Alamo Bowl.

I hope we get to play this Utah offense in the Alamo Bowl. Our ball hawks will have a field day against their passing attack. They have back to back drives resulting in interceptions, and that last one was an absolute terrible qb decision and an even worse throw.

I'll bet the Big 12 folks are happy Tx/OU got the rematch...saw something where this Wash/Utah game has a small crowd. Two 9-3 teams is not a good look.

Very unfortunate that the Washington v. Washington State game last week was in a blizzard or WSU would have beat Wash by several TDs, and then WSU would have proceeded to easily win this game tonight too IMO.

I'm always leery of this logic.

Didn't Washington have to play in the same blizzard?

You don't think the weather can affect some teams more than others just by the style of their play?

All I'm saying is I think WSU is a much better team than Wash and Utah. WSU got unlucky to have to play in a snowstorm, which rarely happens. It really affected their passing game.

So the only touchdown was off a bad dropped pass that just happened to deflect upwards. Must be terrific defenses. :rolleyes:

Possibly but it's not like Wazzou is some sort of force to be reckoned with. Washington could have had the same sort of record if you flip a few games.

Didn't realize it's their first time going to the Rose Bowl since 2000.

$9 tickets to get into the PAC 12 championship

Yeah, they'll definitely need a team to be undefeated for USC with one loss if they ever want to get into the CFP again.

Didn’t read through the whole thread but why is there a PAC game tomorrow?
