I think this is a false argument on whether these games decide if we are contenders or pretenders to the crown. This team will be a work in progress througout the Pac 10 season.

As a seasoned contrarian, I believe we do have what it takes and the coaching prowess to make another run at the national championship. Barring attacks from the Basketball Goddess of Health, that is.
