The four teams in the Pacific Northwest off to strong starts.
Theme of the week: Big winsWashington and Oregon thumped No. 11 Michigan State and No. 12 Brigham Young, respectively, by a combined score of 80-48, giving the Pac-12 two wins over ranked non-conference opponents on the same day for the first time since Sept. 14, 2013. There have been numerous victories over ranked opponents in the past nine seasons, but the Saturdays never aligned.
Game of the week: Notre Dame 24, Cal 17With apologies to UCLA, which beat South Alabama on a field goal as time expired, and to Arizona, which edged North Dakota State, the wild finish in South Bend made for the most entertaining viewing. The Irish appeared to clinch the victory with an interception in the final minute, except a targeting call gave Cal a second chance — and the Bears were oh-so-close to converting on a Hail Mary.
Hot seat of the week: ASU's Herm EdwardsFollowing a horrific loss to Eastern Michigan, ASU president Michael Crow seemed to indicate a coaching change could be coming in Tempe. That happened quickly, with multiple reports Sunday saying Herm Edwards is out. Stat of the week I: Big Ten woesWith Washington’s victory, the Pac-12 is now 27-10 against Big Ten opponents since 2000 in regular-season games played in the Pacific Time Zone. Nobody has struggled more than Michigan State, which last won under those circumstances in 1957.
