I figure with UW out to a 1-3 conference start I ought to bring back last season’s Pac-10 Hoops Preview posts. To shake things up at least. I follow my favorite soccer team like a civilized sports fan. I check the score of Everton’s game after it happens. If they win? ...

Hey, we made it to a bowl preview show! It’s a miracle. We didn’t talk about Charlie Weis kind of accusing Pete Carroll of banging grad students in Malibu; Jake Locker staying or going; or, whether or not Cal is dumb enough to fire Tedford. We did talk about Washington embarrassing Cal, the...

The Jeremiah Masoli spread is now invincible. Pete Carroll has finally met an opponent that may shake him from his ultra vanilla offense and defense. Scheme matters again in the Pac-10. Oregon has it and USC does not. Is Stanford a trap game for Oregon? Should Jeff Tedford be fired...

Another week come and gone. Oregon, USC, Arizona, and Stanford look to be the cream at this point. In that order for now. If I’m a UCLA fan, at what point am I allowed to voice my frustration that Rick Neuheisel has yet to find a way to consistently score? ...

As long as Husky Football toils in its present state, late October becomes time to focus on basketball. For the second season running, Seattle is home to not one, but two Division One programs. Well, more or less. Seattle U is in year two of a five year reintegration to D1...
