Is the Pac-10 the Most Overrated Conference In College Football?

And if you think this is bad, things got worse…..

 

UCLA had just come off a huge win vs. Tennessee at home. What a great start for Rick Neuheisel. Underdogs by only eight, they were a popular upset pick this weekend, or at least a popular pick to keep it close.

 

But today was not UCLA’s day; in fact I don’t even know if UCLA showed up to the game. BYU took a 42-0 lead at halftime.  Max Hall, BYU’s quarterback for those who don’t know, had six TD passes. 

 

That’s about as ugly as any game can get in 30 minutes of play.  Even in the fourth quarter UCLA failed to get on the board when they missed a 27 yard field goal.  BYU only scored 17 points in the second half and won 59-0. 

 

It is being considered as the worst loss in UCLA history, but hey look on the bright side Bruins fans, Kevin Craft only threw one pick this time.

 

Pac-10 = 0-4

 

 

 

Hey Oregon State (at home) beat Hawaii, HALLELUJAH! Pac-10 football dominates the WAC, woo!

 

 

Pac-10 = 1-4

 

 

 

The #16 Oregon Ducks went into Purdue for a Pac-10 vs. Big-10 showdown, and a showdown it was.  Oregon barely pulled the win off in double overtime with a 32-26 victory, but this was not the victory the Pac-10 needed to show the Big-10 who's boss.  This has not been a good day for the Pac-10.

 

 

 

Pac-10 = 2-4
