If the Cal-Oregon game is still going on, scroll down to the 4th quarter thread. If it's over, the postgame thread (for Cal football discussion only, so save your best insights from the game for about ten-fifteen minutes and then post them there!) will be right above this post at the top of the hour.
This thread is for discussion of the remaining college football games. Thanks!
Since none of these games have kicked off yet, this is a good place to check out the Pac-10 primer from this morning!

Say what you want about Tebow
But I’ll take a guy who can put up 31-0 in the first quarter any day of the week.

It hasn’t been a good week for ranked teams at all. Most of them either lost or barely won.

Although ours wasn’t really an upset, more like the Battle of Hoth.

I was thinking we were the Rebels, then realized that the analogy doesn’t make much sense. Good call.

14-7 OSU in Corvallis
Beavers starting to move the ball with (guess who) Rodgers and Rodgers.
Canfield gets bloodied, has to come out, Moveao finishes off the drive easily. Why can’t our two quarterback systems work this way???

He looks pretty heavily concussed.

So I’m not too concerned. LSU barely won today, I doubt they’ll knock over the Gators in Death Valley.

Chris Owusu now has 3 kickoff return TDs on the year on six attempts. Our kickers are lucky to get it to the 10. This does not bode well for Big Game.
Aw man he did it again?
We’ll probably just kick it out of bounds.

I don’t know, but the announcer was kinda dumb on that – it doesn’t matter if his right foot lands in if his left foot is already out of bounds.

Working on my top 25
I don’t know where to begin.
I guess Florida has made an actual argument for #1 today. Think I’ll still go with Bama.
I am a horrible bruin-bear crossbreed.
Bama’s a good choice. Arkansas is only 2-2 but from watching the Georgia game they’re a pyrotechnic offense so Saban’s crew deserves credit for holding them to a single touchdown. Also that Virginia Tech win is looking pretty good right now. (Honestly I’ve liked Bama since the beginning of the season. I wouldn’t pick anyone to run the regular season table at this point, but if I did I would pick the Tide.)
