A Stanford win means they get to play UCLA again next week.

If UCLA wins, they'll have to play at Autzen in the CCG if Oregon wins the Civil War.

What happens if UCLA and Oregon State win? Does it come down to BCS rankings to see who plays UCLA next week?

That is really a good question because they would all have the same record in the North.

Edit: Oregon would have 2 losses in the North and Stanford beat Oregon State so I would assume Stanford would get the nod.

UCLA's home jerseys are some of the best in college football. So of course they're wearing all navy blue tonight. At least it's not the done-to-death all black shit.

Stanford looks like the team with more to play for tonight, up 14. I wish they had made the QB change before playing Notre Dame.

Stanford at UCLA: Jim Mora faces an interesting choice here. He can rest his best players, get the book on Stanford and then play the Cardinal again six days later with a conference title on the line. Or he can go full-force at Stanford, win and face Oregon in Eugene for the conference title.

Interesting choice.
I think this is just stupid scheduling on any conference's part. I know that the Ohio State/TSUN, last game of the season fans, are going to disagree with me but when you have two divisions in one conference the last game of the season should be played among the teams in the same division because what you describe is going to happen periodically.

I wonder what people would think if we play TSUN twice in two weeks. Yeah, I know beating them 2 times in two weeks would be a lot of fun but I think it would take some of the joy out of the rivalry. I know that we should play them the last game of the season because of the tradition but maybe they should be put in the same division as us and move Bucky to the Legends division.
