None of them are named Arizona State. The team some picked as most-likely-to, was embarrassed at home by Oregon 48-13. Saturday's 35-point loss makes the Sun Devils one of the more gooey meltdowns of the season. Senior quarterback Sam Keller transferred to Nebraska in the preseason quarterback fiasco. Last year's pass efficiency leader, Rudy Carpenter, has been shaky. Dirk Koetter is 2-18 against ranked teams. It was triple digits in the desert Saturday, and ASU wilted. What?
At the other end of the standings, Oregon is undefeated. Cal pounded Oregon State. Nate Longshore is tied for second nationally with 14 touchdown passes, all since the debacle against Tennessee in the opener. Even Washington (4-1) controls its own destiny. Oregon goes to Cal this week, with the winner having all the mojo needed to overtake the Trojans in November at the Coliseum.

Think USC will lose this year? Either of UO or Cal--regardless of who wins--will pose a challenge.
