And on the pedestal these words appear
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
Arizona still can't decide between Matt Scott and Nick Foles at quarterback, but that's not the worst thing that's ever happened. Some notes here, including an update that tight end Rob Gronkowski and receiver Delashaun Dean should return to practice by the end of the week.Previewing Arizona State -- lots of D but where's the O? More on Vontaze Burfict, who continues to await a verdict from the NCAA Clearinghouse.More on Jeff Tedford going with Kevin Riley as California's starting quarterback.An East Coast newspaper ranks Oregon 12th.Do not mess with this Oregon State linebacker. A colorful report from practice. Freshman Markus Wheaton is a victim of paperwork -- hopefully.This guy is Stanford's quarterback. On defense.Yo
uth brings speed at UCLA. But it also brings growing pains.If Aaron Corp returns to full-go at USC's practice today, then his competition with Matt Barkley renews with urgency. People are going to underestimate the USC defense aren't they?Thin is in on the Washington O-line, but does thin mean good? Johri Fogerson's return to running back from a stint at safety is paying off.Cool cat Kenny Alfred will be the center of attention for Washington State. The Cougars' D-line needs to step up.
