it) predictions Here's a look at
what we said then and what we
think will happen for the final

State have manv wondering if
the seventh-ranked Wilde ats are
for real.
The Wildcats will gel the
chance to prove it this weekend
at Util.A The winner of the
game- will have the inside trai k
to the Rose Howl
The Wildcats continue to
dominate on defense. So far this
season. Arizona is giving up
lri 1 rushing v.irds per game
Arizona is the only team in
the Pac-10 that has remained
undefeated, and is one of only
mv teams nationally to he unde
feated and untied. The ( ats
have a gruelling final four
games with match-ups at tJCI.A.

Ohio State, and to a red hot
UCLA The Huskies have the
easiest schedule left in confer
ent e with games on the road at
Arizona State and Oregon State,

and Washington State.
Washington will be playing
spoiler for tfte remainder of the
season, and can virtually dash
any hopes of a bowl appearance
for the Trojans and (tie Cougars
with a win over them

UCI.A had to pull out all the
stops last weekend in a 20-17 win
over the Heavers, but in the three
games prior to that, the Bruins
averaged over 53 points a game.
UCI.A opened the season with
back-to-bai k losses at the hands
of California and Nebraska, but
haven't lost a game since. Cook
