I so want to put a reference in about a Primus song. @SkinyUte understands.
But good job by the Beavs to dam up the Ducks.

Who goes to CCG if Wazzu wins?

Oregon goes if Wazzu wins, or at least that is what has been said.
But there’s still chatter about UW going…not sure how.

Weirdly enough I think we have a better shot at the rose bowl by not playing in the CCG. If Wazzu wins then Oregon goes to the CCG and probably get beat by USC leaving Utah as the highest ranked P12 team behind USC. If Washington wins then we have to beat USC for a second time to play in the rose bowl.
Seems like a reasonable take right?

I think UW was eliminated by UCLA and Utah winning. I don’t remember exactly why.

I hadn’t thought about it that way, but you could be right. Although I think they still might like Oregon over us in that situation.

Except from the Rose Bowl site:
“In the past, the Tournament of Roses selected replacement teams like the University of Oklahoma (2003), University of Texas (2005, 2006), or Texas Christian University (2010) to play in the Rose Bowl Game. Now, however, in the CFP-system, the Tournament of Roses may only select a replacement team from its partner conferences (Big Ten and Pac-12).
Should a team from the Big Ten or Pac-12 be selected to play in the College Football Playoff, the Tournament of Roses will traditionally select the next-highest CFP-ranked team from that conference.”

My take. If Utah goes to the CCG and wins, Rose Bowl. If Utah loses U$C goes to CFP and Utah still goes to the Rose Bowl

Well, UW has to first take care the business – which seems a bit challenging right now.
If Washington wins, which we’d need in the first place, I seriously doubt they’d drop in the CFP rankings being idle next week, while we’d surely drop in the CFP with a CCG loss. That would lead the RB to take Washington over Utah.

Oddly, there were prognostications of that earlier. Earlier than last week’s games. At the time, I thought it was really bizarre, but now it could easily happen.

If Utah looses the CCG, Utah would have 4 losses, and be ranked lower than a 2-loss Washington in the final CFP poll. I think the Rose Bowl takes Washington in that scenario.

He should be charged with assault and serve jail time.

There is at least precedent for charging, see the UM-MSU tunnel incident. Yes, I know one is in Oregon the other in Michigan, but point is the same. Although I suspect Oregon has laws on the books that would cover this.
Dude was pretty stupid, everyone has cameras and video devices now.

Regardless of what is caught on camera or not, it’s up to the victim to want to proceed.
I’ve taken dozens of assault reports in my career that never went anywhere as the victim had no desire to press charges. While the video is nice, prosecutors will usually not proceed without a cooperating victim.

Fair point. Guess we’ll see, and I ran with the presumption that the victim would file charges.
