I'm still at 10 wins is a success but not outstanding. With this schedule 11 wins is what I expect.

Oh and for you youngsters:

One enduring, and endearing, feature of a venue rich with them is its unchanging name. The Rose Bowl Operating Company — a management board whose 13 members are nominated by an assortment of local grandees and institutions, including UCLA — and the Rose Bowl Legacy Foundation, which helps raise funds for capital improvements, seem determined not to venture down the road to corporate naming rights.

Good grades, DD, and I think they are fair and tell us a lot about this team.

I know many of us (as a fanbase) have downplayed a couple of the wins - So Alabama because it was a last second FG over a middie, and UW because they were probably overrated - and there might be the tendency to say that Utah wasn't as good as we thought too, we were at home, etc etc., and that's a rational argument.

The other way to look at it is that we are a really good complimentary team with a fantastic offense that gives an aggressive bend-don't-break defense an opportunity to make plays, and I'm coming around to this side of it. So that's why I think a whole bunch of A's is well deserved after the Utah game.

But it doesn't mean I'm confident about the Oregon game this weekend at all. - lol
