Notre Dame (6-3) lost to Navy (7-3) 21-23 at home.
Colorado State (3-7) lost to UNLV (4-6) 16-35 on the road.
Once again we have to mention that their last win was September 19th vs. Nevada.
Missouri (5-4) lost to Baylor (4-5) 32-40 at home.
That's right - Baylor...sheesh.
UNLV (4-6) defeated Colorado State (3-7) 35-16 at home.
Someone had to win.
Louisiana Tech (3-6) lost to Boise State (9-0) 35-45 at home.
November 27th on the Smurf Turf is starting to look REALLY interesting.
Utah State (2-7) lost to Hawai'i (3-6) 36-49 on the road.
Two weeks in a row the Pack gets to play the last-ranked WAC team.
Idaho (7-3) lost to Fresno State (6-3) 21-31 at home.
November 14th in Reno is looking pretty good, too.
Hawai'i (3-6) defeated Utah State (2-7) 49-36 at home.
Again, someone had to win this game.
So, not including the Nevada-SJSU game, Pack opponents are 2-6 for the week ending November 7th (8th), 2009, and those two wins are, in both cases, opponents playing other opponents so, as I said above, someone had to win those games. That doesn't really send a good message to Jeff Sagarin.
Overall, Wolf Pack opponents are 24-34 to-date, and OOC opponents are 18-20 (the tie is finally broken).
Editorial postscript: how does the 4th-ranked Pac-10 team get to be ranked 10th in the nation, even above the team who just demolished and demoralized them the prior week? Oregon was humbled by Stanford, a classic Fresno State-style let-down, but for comparison's sake, USC has yet to play Stanford.
Our thoughts go out to Jahvid Best.
