Mixed football day

The poor Hawai’i Rainbow Warriors lost their eleventh straight game this season and second overtime game in a row this afternoon. I really question running the ball four straight times into the line in your only overtime possession, but I don’t get paid half-a-million bucks a year, so what do I know?

The Arizona Wildcats, on the other hand, crushed the fifth-ranked Oregon Ducks 42 – 16 today. It feels even better since the ‘Cats were defeated last weekend by Washington State, which evened its record at 5 – 5 on the year with that win. Arizona is now 7 – 4 on the season. Oregon (9 – 2) was touted as a possible player in the National Championship Game in February, but it’s now lost two of the past three weekends to Stanford and the U of A and needs help just to win the Pac-12 Conference.
