  San Diego State Can SHOCK UCLA at the Rose Bowl

  Sep 10, 202617 min

  I'm planting my flag. San Diego State is going into the Rose Bowl and beating UCLA. The Aztecs enter this matchup as 12.5-point underdogs, but I believe this might be the Pac-12's BEST opportunity all season to get a statement win against a Power 4 opponent. And Colton Poole of The Poole Report isn't far behind me. UCLA certainly looked better than we expected in its 45-24 win over Cal. Bob Chesney's transfers immediately made an impact, and that makes this matchup considerably tougher than it looked during the offseason. But don't sleep on San Diego State. Lucky Sutton is coming off a career-high three rushing touchdowns. Jayden Denegal is healthy. The Aztecs might have one of the deepest wide receiver rooms in the Pac-12. The biggest question? Can San Diego State's defense start faster than it did against Portland State? And can Sutton and this rushing attack have success against a UCLA defense that allowed only three yards per carry against Cal? If the Aztecs can run the football, I think they have a real chance. I'm taking San Diego State outright. Colton believes this is a one-touchdown game and certainly likes SDSU +12.5. Plus, we break down Fresno State's opportunity to get back on track after its ugly loss to USC and what Matt Entz needs to see from the Bulldogs against Sacramento State. #Pac12 #SanDiegoState #SDSU #UCLA #CollegeFootball Photo Credit: David Frerker -IMAGN Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

  Boise State Can Take CONTROL of the CFP Race vs. Memphis

  Sep 9, 202617 min

  The Group of 6 College Football Playoff race could change dramatically this weekend. Boise State. Memphis. No. 1 vs. No. 2 in The Poole Report's G6 Top 25. And we're getting this matchup on the blue turf. Boise State is coming off an extremely impressive performance against No. 2 Oregon. The Broncos didn't get the win, but they took one of the most talented rosters in college football all the way to the end. Now comes another test. Memphis has legitimate College Football Playoff aspirations of its own. Marcus Stokes has shown plenty of encouraging signs at quarterback, Jalen Carter is coming off a massive rushing performance, and the Memphis defensive front has created problems early this season. Can they do the same thing against Boise State? That's where Colton Poole and I disagree. He's taking Boise State to win but Memphis to cover the 8.5-point spread. Me? I think Boise State covers. If the Broncos take care of Memphis after what they just showed against Oregon, it's going to become increasingly difficult to argue that anybody else belongs ahead of Boise State in the Group of 6 CFP conversation. We also dive into a HUGE rivalry game between Texas State and UTSA. Texas State got blown out by Texas in Week 1. But how much did we actually learn about the Bobcats? We're about to find out. UTSA comes to San Marcos with CFP aspirations of its own, while Texas State desperately needs to avoid an 0-2 start. Two massive Group of 6 games. Plenty of CFP implications. Let's get into it. #Pac12 #BoiseState #Memphis #CollegeFootball #CFP #TexasState #UTSA Photo Credit: Troy Wayrynen -IMAGN Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

  Gonzaga Has More Riding on Pac-12 Football Than You Think

  Sep 9, 202630 min

  Gonzaga doesn't play football. So why should Gonzaga fans care about the Pac-12 football season? Because the success of Boise State, Washington State, San Diego State, Fresno State and the rest of the conference could have a much bigger impact on Gonzaga than you might think. Andy Patton of Locked On Zags joins Locked On Pac-12 for another crossover to explain why Gonzaga has a vested interest in its new conference succeeding on the football field. No, Gonzaga isn't getting a direct cut of the Pac-12's football postseason revenue. But successful football can strengthen the Pac-12's national reputation, improve the value of the conference and create a stronger athletic league around Gonzaga. Boise State competing for College Football Playoff appearances? That's good for Gonzaga. Pac-12 After Dark becoming nationally relevant again? That's good for Gonzaga. The conference consistently underperforming? That's where problems could begin. We also get into a potentially HUGE issue facing Gonzaga basketball. Eligibility. Gonzaga still has several players dealing with various eligibility situations as court cases and NCAA decisions continue to create uncertainty across college basketball. And this isn't exclusively a Gonzaga problem. Could the Pac-12 actually have more riding on these eligibility decisions than almost any other conference in college basketball? Plus, we recap the latest Pac-12 football power rankings and finish with Zig or Zag. The Pac-12 era is here for Gonzaga. And football matters more to the Zags than it might initially appear. #Pac12 #Gonzaga #GonzagaBasketball #BoiseState #CollegeFootball #CollegeBasketbal Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

  Boise State Leads a VERY Different Pac-12 Power Ranking Following College Football Week 1

  Sep 9, 202634 min

  We finally got to see every Pac-12 football team in action. And my power rankings have changed A LOT. Boise State remains No. 1 after taking No. 2 Oregon all the way to the final drive as a massive underdog. I think the Broncos proved something even in a loss. They're still the best team in the Pac-12, and right now I think they're the best Group of 6 team in college football. San Diego State stays at No. 2 after beating Portland State, but the Aztecs have some things to clean up before a fascinating opportunity against UCLA. Then things get interesting. Washington State jumps to No. 3. The Cougars' offense has some MAJOR questions after the Apple Cup, but I came away extremely impressed with their defense. If Kirby Moore can get Caden Pinnock and this offense figured out, WSU's ceiling could be much higher than we thought. Oregon State makes the biggest jump. The Beavers go from the bottom of my preseason rankings all the way to No. 4 after Braden Atkinson showed exactly why JaMarcus Shephard was willing to make the difficult quarterback decision. And don't overlook Colorado State. Jim Mora's first game was an impressive Border War victory, Haase Haney threw five touchdowns, and the Rams might be one of the biggest surprises in the conference. Then we've got problems. Fresno State's offensive line and quarterback situation look even more concerning than I feared. Texas State's defense has a LONG way to go. And Utah State? After losing to Idaho State, I'm legitimately looking at the Aggies' schedule and wondering where the wins are coming from. These aren't standings. These rankings are based on one question: If I had to play these teams right now, which one would I least want to see on the other sideline? Week 1 gave us some answers. And it created a whole lot more questions. #Pac12 #CollegeFootball #BoiseState #WashingtonState #OregonState #SanDiegoState Photo Credit: Troy Wayrynen -IMAGN Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

  REACTION: Washington State Could Be DANGEROUS If It Fixes This | Apple Cup 2026

  Sep 6, 202619 min

  Washington State lost the Apple Cup 24-10. But I came away from Kirby Moore's first game thinking this team might be closer than the final score suggests. Because Washington State's defense? That unit looks LEGIT. The Cougars consistently created opportunities against Washington, made plays in the trenches and kept WSU in this football game deep into the second half. There were missed tackles. There were opportunities to get DeMond Williams on the ground that Washington State couldn't finish. Those things have to improve. But schematically? I really liked what I saw. Trent Bray looks like a fantastic addition to Kirby Moore's staff, and this defense might already be one of the better units in the Pac-12. The problem is the other side. Washington State's offense has to get significantly better. Caden Pinnick showed flashes in his first start for WSU, including 61 rushing yards and a touchdown. But he also threw two interceptions, Washington State allowed three sacks, and too often it felt like Pinnick was looking at his first read before immediately trying to create something with his legs. The traditional running game wasn't there either. Washington State ran the football 31 times and finished with only 100 yards. That's especially surprising considering what Kirby Moore was able to build on the ground at Missouri. Then add two missed field goals on special teams. Suddenly you start wondering how different this game looks if Washington State simply executes a little better. Because the defense gave them a chance. Now comes Kansas State. And after watching the Wildcats put 71 points on the board in their opener, Washington State cannot bring this same offense to Manhattan and expect its defense to bail it out. But I'm also not burying the Cougars after one game. Far from it. If Washington State can get the offense caught up to its defense, I still believe this team can compete for a Pac-12 championship. If the offense doesn't improve? That's when we have a much bigger problem. We break down everything from Washington's 24-10 Apple Cup win and what we learned from the first game of the Kirby Moore era. #WashingtonState #WSU #GoCougs #AppleCup #Pac12 #CollegeFootball Photo Credit: Joe Nicholson -IMAGN Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
