00:03 - Next game up, we're gonna stay

00:04 in the Conference of Champions

00:05 and likely a Pac-12 Championship possible preview,

00:10 I should say, 'cause we just talked Washington

00:13 and setting up to be Washington and Oregon,

00:15 although it's not set in stone just yet.

00:19 We're gonna talk USC, the Trojans,

00:21 in the Oregon Ducks, 36 to 27.

00:24 That was the Ducks winning this one in Autzen.

00:28 They did not cover the number though, Mark,

00:30 laying more than two touchdowns here.

00:31 I will say this, Bo Nix threw for over 400 yards

00:34 and four touchdowns.

00:35 So Ducks win, Trojans cover.

00:38 What'd you take away as the game stays

00:39 under a really high total of 76?

00:42 - Yeah, again, credit to USC for actually playing

00:46 with some heart, I thought they might check out.

00:48 But it's interesting you talk about it

00:49 'cause Washington can actually determine

00:52 who they play in the Pac-12 title game, right?

00:55 If they beat Oregon State this week,

00:57 doesn't matter what Oregon, Oregon State is,

00:59 it's Washington and Oregon in the Pac-12 championship game.

01:04 If they lose, they are then setting up a scenario

01:09 where if Oregon State beats Oregon,

01:12 then they will get Oregon State again.

01:14 So this is an elimination game next week

01:17 coming up for the Beavers.

01:21 If they lose to Washington,

01:22 they don't have, with three losses,

01:24 they won't have a chance to catch Oregon.

01:28 - Yeah, interesting scenario there.

01:31 I didn't realize that, but yeah, you're right.

01:34 You almost wonder, the Pac-12 probably wants it

01:37 to set up Oregon-Washington rematch

01:40 just because the winner of that game

01:42 would likely have a strong shot to make the playoffs.

01:45 Whereas if Oregon State ran the table,

01:48 they might be on the outside looking in.

01:50 That's one thing I would take away,

01:51 but yeah, good breakdown.

01:53 USC and Oregon, and yeah, you're right.

01:55 The Trojans not quitting on the season,

01:56 something to watch there down the stretch

01:58 as they still have UCLA on deck.

02:01 We'll see how the Trojans finish out the season.
