Oregon State will be tough, but I like our chances especially at home and coming off of a bye week. If we can get past OSU things look pretty good for being ranked very high for the trip to Palo Alto in November.
Needless to say, the Pac-10 is deep this year and Arizona could lose to anybody. It's gonna be a very interesting year in conference, I still think there's very little chance that any team makes it out undefeated.

The way Jacory is playing right now, I want Miller/Berry/James running the ball 30-35 times. He's shown that he's the same EXACT player that cost us the game against UNC last year. Very interested to see how he handles this.

[h1]John Blake's lawyer: No quid pro quo[/h1]

Agent Gary Wichard transfered money to former North Carolina assistant coach John Blake six times after December 2006, but three of those transfers were for private-school tuition payments for Blake's son, who is Wichard's godson, according to an attorney for Blake.

Richard C. Lewis/Icon SMIThe lawyer for John Blake says an agent gave the former Tar Heels assistant coach money in part to pay tuition for Blake's son, who is the agent's godson.
Blake resigned in September after his friendship with Wichard came into question amid an NCAA review.
William Beaver of GrayRobinson in Orlando also said that a $45,000 loan Blake received after his dismissal from Oklahoma was a direct loan from a bank, not a personal loan from California-based Wichard. Beaver said the bank went through its typical approval process.
In addition, Blake and Alabama defensive star Marcel Dareus did have contact, Beaver said. But according to the attorney, Dareus called Blake because they had developed a personal relationship during his college recruitment and Dareus' mother was ill.
During a conversation, Dareus told Blake that he was being besieged by calls from agents and was concerned. According to the attorney, Blake told Dareus that he needed to focus on his mother and worry about agents later. Blake allegedly told Dareus that he had a good relationship with Wichard but that it was something to worry about in the future.
Beaver said to his knowledge Wichard did not speak directly with Dareus and that "it was surely not a recruiting call" between Blake and Dareus.
Dareus reported the information to the NCAA when it interviewed him during its investigation. The relationship between Dareus and Blake dates to when Blake recruited Dareus out of Birmingham to come to North Carolina.
Dareus, the NCAA determined, received $1,787 in airfare, hotel, transportation and meals to attend a party last spring in Miami Beach. He paid that amount to charity and the NCAA suspended him for the first two games of the season.
The NCAA expanded its investigation of Blake, a former employee of Wichard, and his financial relationship with the agent. He resigned from the university shortly thereafter.
Yahoo! Sports has reported that Wichard's ties with Blake are so deep that the agent's firm issued Blake a credit card. Blake's attorneys said their client has received loans from Wichard but that he never steered players to the agent in return.
On Monday, North Carolina coach Butch Davis again offered an apology for how the NCAA probe of agent-related benefits and possible academic misconduct involving a tutor has "tainted" the football program.
Davis said he is "sorry" he trusted Blake, whose connection to an NFL agent has been a key part of the NCAA investigation into the football program.

Jacory has disappointed me with some of his decision making this year, I'd like to see a lot more running as well mixed in with some short passes or something because most of this dude's picks are awful
O-line has got to protect him though, every time he gets sacked he looks like he just received an F5 from Brock Lesnar
