Last week recap
:format(webp):no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/2454746/1._Last_week_recap.0.PNG)
Reef and Vincent S had great Week 11's with 4/5 correct picks. The rest of us were a bit behind, but still not too shabby at 3/5.

Everyone had faith in Oregon, and everyone was rewarded! Nice to see that happen. The other games tripped people up at roughly equal rates.
This week's picks
Cal @ USC
Not much to say here. Nothing but love and support for the Blue and Gold. Can we get it done??
:format(webp):no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/2454764/3._Cal_USC.0.PNG)
boomtho: GO BEARS!
Nam Le: This is the year, goddammit.
Ruey Yen: Taking Cal and the points (but hoping for the points to not matter, of course).
Berkelium97: I would have picked USC to cover the original 12-point spread, but I think 14.5 is a bit too large.
Vincent S: My mind picks USC. My heart picks Cal.
Reef: Because I don't believe in the NLC. Seriously, though, I'd have gone the other way at 13.5, but 14 seems like a slight tip the other way.
UW @ Arizona
Two unanimous games in a row! Somewhat surprising I guess, though our dislke of UW around these parts is well known.
:format(webp):no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/2454768/4._Arizona_UW.0.PNG)
boomtho: Not impressed with UW to date, doubt they can score enough to keep up
Nam Le: 9 seems high, but Washington has literally no offensive weapons left, and it's best defensive players are all hurting.
Ruey Yen: Zona having the better season so far.
Berkelium97: I keep picking the Wildcats because I expect them to break out of their funk. This week I take another valiant tilt at the windmill.
Vincent S: no comment
Reef: This seems like value on the Zona side..
Utah @ Furd
Boo Vincent S, that dirty Furd lover!!!
:format(webp):no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/2454774/5._Utah_furd.0.PNG)
boomtho: Why is Furd favored here?
Nam Le: Stanford wins outright, though. Just don't see the Utes being able to mount much offense.
Ruey Yen: Furd may win this one but not cover.
Berkelium97: This game is going be horrifically ugly and I'm going to enjoy every last second of it.
Vincent S: no comment
Reef: furd wins 3-0
ASU @ Oregon State
Man, 3/ 4 games this week are unanimous. Quite odd. Wonder if we'll end up looking foolish or Vegas will.
:format(webp):no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/2454790/6._asu_osu.0.PNG)
boomtho: ASU is a loooot better than OSU, in my opinion
Nam Le: Easiest pick of the week.
Ruey Yen: ASU is on a roll.
Berkelium97: I shouldn't pick ASU to cover in mid-30 degree temperatures and possible rain, but the Devils have been too good to pick against.
Vincent S: no comment
Reef: If they're going to let down, this is it, but the numbers dictate the fav here.
Wrap up and conclusion
3/4 games are unanimous, everyone loves the Bears (go figure, right?) and only the immoral, corrupt Vincent S believes in Furd. Tune in next week to see how everyone does!
