I Can't Complain (but sometimes I still do)

Oregon St QB Matt Moore throws for 356 yards, 4 TD's and 1 INT in the 2006 Sun Bowl to beat Missouri by a score of 39-38.

After the trio of dogmeat Pac10 teams (Oregon, Arizona St, Ucla) embarrassed the conference in their respective lower-tier, crappy bowl games, the Pac10's image has gotten a lift from Cal's dominating win in the Holiday Bowl and OSU's nail-biting victory in the Sun Bowl.

Now that the conference's better teams have won their upper-tier bowl games, and the conference's mediocre to barely-bowl-eligible teams have lost their crappy, lower-tier bowl games - what does this say about USC's chances in the Rose Bowl?

Absolutely nothing.
