How Things Shook Out In Week Nine Of Conference Play
Things got interesting in week nine of conference play with a few “upsets” of note.
Arizona was able to upset Stanford, though the Cardinal recovered just fine against Arizona State later in the weekend.
UCLA trounced Utah, but the Utes turned it around against USC who beat Colorado beforehand.

Most Compelling Matchups In Week 10
The last weekend of regular season play should be fairly straightforward with the biggest matchup happening between No. 4 Stanford who travels up to Corvallis to take on the No. 11 Oregon State Beavers.
While not likely, Arizona does face No. 7 USC and No. 8 UCLA after upsetting the Cardinal the weekend before. Utah also has a possible interesting matchup in Washington State who has given them some fits in the past.
We need you rocking with us on Thursday and Saturday, Beaver Nation!
You know what to do. #FillGill
