dang

This is a hard pick! I went with the Cal football game for that was just an awesome game and really was the game where we are started to really think about a Pac-10 championship. But shoot Connor the previous one with the USC game versus the Stanford basketball was easy, but this SC basketball game was a really good game and an extremely important one for the program. Can I vote for both?

That's because the last picks was 1 vs 8

This one is a 4 vs 5. It’s supposed to be tough!

I don't know though!

Weeding out the really good ones so early seems a bit counter productive doesn’t it? Maybe should be more of a tiers type of approach. Start out with 8 vs 7 and 6 vs 5. Then the winner of 8/7 against 4 and the winner of 6/5 against 3, and then the winners of those against 2 and 1, and then the championship.

Hell, did that make any sense? Just my thoughts.

Kinda made sense

This way has more of a tournament feeling though.

This IS tough.

I was actually at both games this year and must say that the USC hoops game was a big deal. Talk about getting a monkey off of our backs.

SIGN BRANDON ROY TO A 5 YEAR DEAL NOW!

I expected to beat Cal in football.

Gotta agree with getting the monkey off our backs in basketball. I think there was an awful lot of celebration over that game. I know I was yelling at my TV. :)

damn

Know I want to change my vote…yes I totally remember the feeling after finally getting that win.

My celebration

Running outside and chanting “Just like football” for about five minutes. I’m sure that didn’t upset the neighbors at all.

Ha ha!

That’s one reason that win was so sweet. NO ONE (okay, maybe a few) expected us to take down USC in football again, let alone in basketball, with our winless team!

Absolutely it has to be USC. Big Roo hitting the three at the buzzer to send it into overtime. First Pac10 win a looong time. We knew we could play with Cal. We didn’t know what kind of season we were going to have in basketball. This gave us hope for the rest of the year.

I support Takimoto in his effort to support Roger Kieschnick in his quest to becoming the best Kieschnick ever to play professional baseball.

I vote that we need to revote... Obviously football was gonna be bigger because more people were there and football is more popular

This is an outrage!
