Crazy AP Predictions

The last 3 years Oregan State has upset 5, yes 5 top 25 teams. Including #1 USC (08), #2 Cal (07) and #3 USC (06). They have been doing it for a while now. WHEN did NU last beat a team they were not supposed to? I can tell you the last top 10 team NU beat was Oklahoma in 2001. They are 0-9 since then.

NU<Oregon State, when it comes to upsets.

obviously they are better at pulling upsets,

because they are underdogs MUCH MORE OFTEN than NU is underdogs, especially at home!! i mean, come on, thats common sense..... think about it...

Somewhat true. But if you look over the past 6 or so seasons NU were dogs to almost every ranked team they played and I can only think of one win. I think it was 06 vs ATM who was #24. THey have been dogs to 9 top ten teams since 02 and have lost every game. I think that would compare. I mean...its common sense. :lol:

It is hard to ever take most sports writers seriously. I really think they just make up numbers and then put them in their article. I wish they would think for one minute about the match-ups, injuries, etc.
