Here comes the Week 3 freight train. The Pac-10 schedule is packed with scintillating matchups this week. The strength and national re spect for the conference for this season could be determined in the space of one day, and that day will be Saturday. Three Pac-10 teams will play top 25 squads. Five of nine Pac-10 games will be on national or regional televi sion. More than one Pac-10 fate will be determined. Here are the weekend’s banner games. All games are on Saturday. use (1-0) at No. 18 Colorado (1-1) 12:30 p.m., ABC regional If there was one thing Colorado fans hated to see last weekend, it was UCLA’s comeback win over Col orado State. T\vo weeks ago, the Buf faloes were trampled by CSLTs Rams and looked to be off-track early in the season. But if Colorado fans have learned one thing over the past few years, it’s that the Buffs shouldn’t have a problem coming back from an ear ly-season loss. Last season, Col orado came back from an embar rassing opening loss to Fresno State to make it into the Fiesta Bowl, where they met Oregon. In Colorado’s second game of the season, the Buffs easily handled San Diego State at home, 34-14, though the game was closer than the score indicates. USC, meanwhile, is still basking in the glow of a 24-17 victory over Auburn two weeks ago, because they haven’t played since. Fifth year quarterback Carson Palmer was named Pac-10 Offensive Play er of the Week for his 302-yard per formance in that game. The aging veteran of the Pac-10 seems to be slapped with the “This is His Year” label every season, but this really could be his year, especially with a fearsome Trojan defense backing him up. Colorado and USC have met four times, with the Trojans winning every meeting. Could the fifth time be the charm for the Buffs? California (2-0) at No. 15 Michigan State (2-0) 9 a.m., ESPN2 Two weeks ago, California was a smile, nod, fall asleep, who cares? team. All of a sudden, the Bears’ trip to East Lansing is deeply intriguing. All Cal did in the past two weeks was win two games against mediocre-to-bad teams, a ho-hum accomplishment for many squads. But this is a Cal team that hasn’t won two straight to open a season since 1997. This is a team that lost their first two games last season by a com bined 88-33. And this is a team that won their first two games of 2002 by a lot of points — a combined 104-35 over Baylor and New Mexico State — as if sending a message that the Bears are back in town. But the Spartans will provide the first test of the season, and it’s a test that California could easily flunk. Michigan State has the nation’s top receiver in Charles Rogers and a top quarterback in Jeff Smoker, and the Spartan offense accumulated 83 points in season-opening wins over Eastern Michigan and Rice. It was a shock when Cal won its first game of the season and a shock when it took the second, and it would be the biggest shock of them all if the Bears keep the streak rolling in Michigan. No. 23 UCLA (1-0) at Oklahoma State (1-1) 4 p.m.f Fox Sports Net UCLA has been engulfed in tur moil this offseason, with several players, including star wide receiver Rickey Manning, jr., allegedly in volved in bar fights in Westwood. But the Bruins didn’t let that affect them in an inspired 30-19 victory over Colorado State in their first game last week.
