Oregon State is riding the longest winning streak in the Pac-10 coming into this week's power rankings. How far did they move up? Also, Washington lost a tough game this week. Was it enough to drop them from the top spot in the poll? As always, click the jump to see the latest Pac-10 Power Rankings!
| Rank (lw) | Votes | Team | Conf | Overall | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 (3) | 43 | UCLA | 7-2 | 17-4 | Beating up on the bay area schools makes for happy Bruins. |
| 2 (1) | 42 | Washington | 7-2 | 16-5 | Losing to Arizona is not a good way to maintain that top spot in the rankings. I thought we just decided that the Huskies were for real! |
| 3 (5) | 33 | USC | 6-3 | 15-6 | Trojans escape with a win against Stanford but a win is a win regardless. |
| 4 (2) | 30 | Arizona State | 5-4 | 16-5 | Arizona State came back down to earth with two losses against the Washington schools...at home no less. |
| 5 (4) | 23 | Cal | 5-4 | 16-6 | Losers of 4 out of their last 5 games and the Bears didn't look good against a bad Oregon team. |
| 6 (9) | 18 | Arizona | 4-5 | 14-8 | Good wins against the Washington schools including dropping 106 on the Huskies. You don't think that overtime win did something for the Wildcats do you? |
| 7 (6) | 17 | Washington State | 4-5 | 12-9 | You will always take a split on the road, especially when you go to the desert. |
| 8 (7) | 13 | Oregon State | 4-5 | 10-10 | Tied for 6th in the Pac-10, 4 more wins in conference than they had all of year, longest winning streak going at 4 games and the Beavs only manage to get up to 8th place? Some of the voters must have spent too much time at the University of California at Eugene. |
| 9 (8) | 6 | Stanford | 3-6 | 13-6 | Losers of three straight, the Cardinal have the Washington schools coming to town. |
| 10 (10) | 0 | Oregon | 0-9 | 6-15 | The guys over at Building the Dam know Calvin Hayes well. What did he say about the Beavers sending Oregon to 0-9 in conference? -- "I'm glad it's them, and not us." |

Another reason to expand to the Pac 12
‘Cause then we wouldn’t be last.
Maybe.

Pac-12?
I think you’d have to expand at least to the Pac-18 (just take the entire WCC) for Oregon to find some conference wins this season.
At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

You guys aren't THAT bad
I don’t get it, you beat K-State, who is decent team this year. I have no earthly idea why the Ducks have sucked in the rest of play this year

I guess my point is...
This past year, when I watched UW and WSU play football, you KNEW they were going to lose. They WERE that bad. I look at the Ducks and would not be shocked if they beat anybody, from Stanford to UCLA. It would be an upset, surely, but I wouldn’t be shocked, and I don’t think a lot of other people would be flabbergasted. It would be one of those “they finally played to their potential” things

In other news,
Is it just my browser, or are the SBN margins all screwed up and widened today?
