Arizona's QB took a nasty hit to the head, threw up and is still out there playing. He has to have a concussion. Surprised the refs let him keep playing.
No bueno. Concussions are not something to fuck with. I actually want USC to win. The Ducks need them ranked as high as possible.
Huge! Ducks are guaranteed to move up now. Now we need Notre Dame to fall and maybe Bama. Fucking KState pisses me off though.
Less than 80 in the second half when they really needed them. On a related note, I've watched Barkley 3x this year and think he's more Brandon Weeden than Andrew Luck.
Luck is special though. Not a lot of QBs possess what Luck does. Barkley comes off as a big headed punk.
At this point I think the Ducks control their own destiny. I don't see how if we go undefeated and win the conference title game that they don't take a team with 13 wins over a team like Notre Dame and K-State with only 12 wins. Too many more BCS points in the extra game.
Sure, but that doesn't help us in the eyes of the computers. We're already firmly entrenched in the #2 spot in the human rankings. Unless we pass Bama for #1, it really won't help that much. We need wins over opponents with good rankings. It would have helped if USC was ranked in the top 10 at the end of the season... but if they lose to us next week, I doubt that will happen.
Why wouldn't that help us in the computers? A win by USC would have made the win over Arizona worth less in the computers. Based on my understanding of how the computers work, I don't think the result of that game really impacted us one way or the other.
Notre dame and Kansas state don't have conference title games. The Ducks win out they are in the title game regardless of those 2 teams being undefeated. BCS will favor a teams with 13 wins and a conference title win over a team with 12 wins and no conference title win. It's really that simple.
