    Oregon State is in a tough situation, it is located only about 40 miles from Eugene. The Ducks fan base is expanding, Oregon football is a hot item. The Ducks are being hard on the beavers

    Oregon State doesn't sell out their 46,000 seat stadium, they can't afford fancy new facilities. Historically the two schools have been equals, they are clearly the little brother now. They don't have a sugardaddy, although I think Phil Knight has donated to them. UofO has Nike. Oregon States' Reser stadium was named for a company that makes potato salad.

    Luckily for them, the new PAC TV contract makes everybody rich. It's like a blood transfusion for Oregon State and Washington State (which is located in the middle of nowhere), they will be able to upgrade some facilities now, and pay their coaches more.

    I agree though, a good team every few years, is probably the best they should expect. OSU fans better understand this, and stay faithful, the beavers can't afford to lose any fans.

    Predictions: Pac-12 Week 5 - Pac-12 Blog - ESPN

    Utah 27, Washington 24: Utah hasn't lost after a bye week since 2002; coach Kyle Whittingham is 6-0 coming off regular-season byes. The Utes have won four consecutive homecoming games. The Utes are 59-17 in Rice-Eccles Stadium, which opened in 1998. This is their first Pac-12 home game. This feels like a big deal for the Utes, and the extra time to prepare should pay off.

    USC 33, Arizona 27: Both teams are coming off bad losses in the state of Arizona. It should help the Trojans that they are home. And that the Wildcats defense has been playing poorly. If USC doesn't make mistakes in bunches -- as it did at Arizona State last weekend -- it's a pretty good football team.

    Colorado 31, Washington State 28: The Cougars receivers have an advantage against the Colorado secondary. But the Buffaloes defensive front seven has an advantage against the Washington State offensive line. I see Cougars quarterback Marshall Lobbestael under relentless pressure. Can he find an open man and get rid of the ball quickly? Ultimately, though, homefield is the difference in this game.

    Arizona State 36, Oregon State 21: This will be Beavers quarterback Sean Mannion's first road start, but he played nearly the entire game at Wisconsin. The Sun Devils might be flat -- and sloppy -- after last weekend's big win over USC, but they will recover in time to overwhelm Oregon State.

    Stanford 38, UCLA 17: Not good that the Bruins secondary is injury-riddled with Andrew Luck playing at home. Or that the Cardinal is coming off a bye, with extra time to prepare for the Bruins pistol offense.

    Ducks and Bears, bye week,.. play each other on Oct. 6
