Not sure how much that would help the Huskies strength of schedule, but just thought I'd note it. I'll also do a little more bubble watching and updating. NOT A NELSON FAN --- I don't know about Nelson. He battles and plays hard, but his body language at times is awful. UCLA 19-15. NEXT SEASON'S FAVORITES --- If you believe the pundits, we're looking at the two best teams next season. I believe that about Arizona. Not sure about UCLA. PRO-WILDCATS CROWD --- It's amazing. Westwood is 13 miles away and there's only a smattering of Bruins fans in the bui...

For the second straight outing, we had multiple posters correctly pick all the games Saturday. Here's a list of the winners: uwhoops, dawgpack, ProgressiveDawg, huskyonspeed and ellensburgcoug, who filed a little late, but we'll let it slide. In the Guess the UW Score game, we had another tie. Imagine that. It never happened all season, then it happened twice in the past five days. Strange. Two posters came the closest to predicting UW's 82-70 victory at Oregon State.
