Who stood out in Week 8?
Jeremiah Masoli, QB, Oregon: Masoli, playing for the first time since he hurt his knee on Oct. 3, accounted for three touchdowns in the Ducks' 43-19 win at Washington. He completed 14 of 22 passes for 157 yards with a touchdown and no interceptions. He also ran 11 times for 54 yards and two scores.
Stanford's defense: After surrendering more than 1,000 yards in its previous two Pac-10 games combined -- both losses -- Stanford's defense held Arizona State to just 290 yards in a 33-14 victory.
Allen Bradford, RB, USC: Bradford rushed for a career-high 147 yards and two touchdowns in the Trojans' 42-36 win over Oregon State.
Oregon State's offense: It's hard to single out one person as the Beavers piled up 482 yards at USC. Quarterback Sean Canfield may have made himself into an NFL draft pick by completing 30 of 43 passes for 329 yards with three TDs. Then there's the Rodgers brothers, Jacquizz (113 rushing yards) and James (194 all-purpose yards). And what about tight end Joe Halahuni (127 yards on nine catches)?
Jeff Tuel, QB, Washington State: Want hope, Coug fans? Tuel, a true freshman, completed 28 of 42 passes for 354 yards and two touchdowns in Washington State's 49-17 loss at California.
