Don’t hand the Pac-10 title to No. 14 Oregon or No. 18 Arizona just yet. There’s dark horse beaver lurking. Sure, Oregon State is just 4-2 in the conference, with three games remaining. But as SB Nation’s Buliding the Dam points out, it may not be that far-fetched. OK, it may be a little far-fetched.
How Oregon State Can Win The Pac-10, In Eight Easy Steps
↵↵
↵Nov. 14:
Stanford wins at USC, Oregon State squeaks by Washington, Cal upsets Arizona, and Arizona State loses at Oregon. (Assume that the rest of the favorites win.)↵Nov. 21: Oregon State wins at Wazzu and Oregon will probably need to win at Arizona.

↵And then it all would all come down to the Beavers at the Ducks, on Dec. 3.
↵↵So we need some help, yes. But I don’t think it’s a longshot to say things could go our way. USC is not playing well but we should expect Carroll to get them on the right track. Arizona has a ridiculously hard final four games. I think they have a better chance of losing out than winning out ... We have the tie-breaker over Harbaugh and if we do what we should up to the Civil War, the opportunity to steal the Rose Bowl from the Ducks is right there.
