Yeah, they can be incredible at times. Then they throw in that game that leaves everyone scratching their heads. Guess that's what ya get with college kids.

It's like they are so used to having it so easy that they don't deal with adversity well. They are used to hitting teams and having them fold but the second a team doesn't fold, you see the SC teams start getting tight. I won't say this is the end of the SC reign in the Pac-10 but the tide is really changing. I think teams like Cal (they are building new, first class facilities now and are getting top players to come for visits) and Oregon (already has among the best facilities in the country) are about to really close the gap.
