Message: [QUOTE="newfrontier, post: 4836347, member: 8141"] Oregon state @ USC and @ UCLA this weekend. Grab your popcorn! Oregon State is the only remaining unbeaten team (now 12-0) not ranked in the top 25 of either poll. However, their schedule has been pretty weak so far. Even the Beavers win against Villanova is turning out to be less noteworthy than expected, as the Wildcats look significantly weaker than last years excellent team that went 31-7. So, OSU is really getting it first true tests this weekend....and OH BOY, ARE THEY EVER! They play at #9/#6 USC on Friday January 5 7pm Pacific time (10 pm Eastern) (TV - Pac-12 Los Angeles). Can they compete and hang with the very athletic Trojans and its super freshman Juju Watkins? USC is 10-1 with its only loss being by 7 points last week at #2 UCLA. Tougher yet, can Oregon State even begin to compete with undefeated #2 UCLA in Los Angeles on Sunday January 7 at 1 pm Pacific time (4 pm eastern)? (TV - Pac-12 network, main channel) YIKES! We will surely get a much clearer idea of what OSU is really made of after this weekend. Contender, pretender, or something inbetween? [/QUOTE]
