Saturday's Pac-12 football schedule has a bit of an oddity on it since the California Golden Bears and the Colorado Buffaloes are both playing each other--in a non-conference game. That's because the home-and-home series that played in Cal last year was scheduled before the Buffs moved to the Pac-12 conference.
There aren't any marquee matchups this week, like last week's LSU-Oregon game, but there's plenty of action ready and waiting to be found.
Oregon St. Beavers vs. No. 8 Wisconsin Badgers, 10:00 a.m. MT, ESPN/ESPN3 - The Beavers lost, 29-28, in overtime to Sacramento State last weekend. Russell Wilson's debut for the Badgers went smashingly against the UNLV Rebels. This could be an easy romp for Wilson, too.
California Golden Bears vs. Colorado Buffaloes, 1:30 p.m. MT - Follow our coverage here.
No. 6 Stanford Cardinal vs. Duke Blue Devils, 1:30 p.m. MT, ESPNU - Andrew Luck should have no problem putting up big numbers.
Hawaii Warriors vs. Washington Huskies, 1:30 p.m. MT - The Huskies survived Eastern Washington last weekend thanks to a key interception with just a few seconds on the clock. The Huskies secondary, though, took a beating from Bo Levi Mitchell and his 473 passing yards.
Nevada Wolf Pack vs. No. 13 Oregon Ducks, 1:30 p.m. MT, FX - The Ducks were dealt a harsh blow on Opening Weekend with a 40-27 lost to the LSU Tigers. The Wolf Pack did not play last weekend, so they will begin life without Colin Kaepernick on Saturday.
UNLV vs. Washington St. Cougars, 3:00 p.m. MT - The Cougars are without quarterback Jeff Tuel for up to two months, but the Rebels are habituallu a failing team.
Utah Utes vs. USC Trojans, 5:30 p.m. MT, Versus - The Trojans beat the Minnesota Gophers by just two points last week while the Utes had a nice warmup win, 27-10, over Montana State. The Utes appear in good position to pick up their first Pac-12 win this week.
San Jose St. Spartans vs. UCLA Bruins, 8:00 p.m. MT - The Spartans received a number of bruises, 57 to be exact, in their loss to Stanford last week. Richard Brehaut is expected to start for the Bruins, but Kevin Prince, injured, may see some time as well.
