It was already one in the morning; the rain pattered dismally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out, when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open.
  • Nick Foles and the Arizona passing game are flowing because young receivers are stepping up.
  • Arizona State quarterback Danny Sullivan deserves your respect. Freshman LB Vontaze Burfict is a bad man, only he's perfectly capable of proving that before the whistle is blown.
  • California has some good and bad news at cornerback. By the way, why did Cal have only 10 men on the field for consecutive plays against UCLA?
  • With Jeremiah Masoli's knee improving, it appears Oregon's visit to Washington will be about a pair of good quarterbacks. The Ducks' image has upgraded because they are more grounded.
  • Plenty of subplots with Oregon State's visit to USC.
  • Stanford needs to shore up its defense or its bowl hopes will dim.
  • What's up with cornerback Aaron Hester at UCLA?
  • Tight end Anthony McCoy is becoming a weapon for USC. An injury update.
  • This Washington receiver has rebounded nicely, which should not be a surprise because basketball is his first love.
  • For once, Washington State's injury news is more good than bad.
  • Updated bowl projections for the Pac-10.
