We have an awesome slate of games on tap this weekend. Both nationally and in our very own conference.

The Ducks are one of the headliners of this weekend but might not even be the best game in the conference. Let’s take a look at the games and my picks for the week.

Arizona @ Colorado

11:00 – Pac-12

Not really a barn-burner right out of the gate here. What once was viewed as an intriguing game is anything but in week ten. Arizona is surging and Colorado is barely treading water at this point. Even in Boulder I expect Arizona to win with ease.

Utah @ Washington

12:30 – FOX

Let’s not kid ourselves, this probably ends up being the best game in the conference this weekend. Lucky for UW they get their two toughest games at home this season. Which I think gives them the edge here. Utah will hang around and beat up on UW all game long. But I think Penix and Odunze will find magic once more late in the game.

Wazzu @ Cal

1:00 – ESPN2

Can Cal finally get a win? I think so. At home and it really looks like Wazzu has given up on Dickert. We’ll see if there’s any signs of life but I think Cal get a dub in Berkeley.

Stanford @ OSU

2:30 – Pac-12

Oregon State gets a quality win and keeps a very good season alive. DJU is playing pretty good ball and the Beavs are mostly healthy headed into this one.

ASU @ UCLA

6:00 – Pac-12

Kind of a measuring stick here for both teams. UCLA is on a slide and needs to get things right. ASU plays some good games but had a clunker against a strong Utah team last week. This feels like one of those ‘surprise wins’ this weekend. AKA, an upset. I’m rolling with Dilly here.

USC @ Oregon

7:30 – FOX

You know what scares me most about this game? Pac-12 after dark. Granted, it’s a home game for Oregon, but when that sun goes down and that moon pops up, all hell breaks loose. I still have Oregon winning with ease in the second half.
