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." |
