Cole Hamels goes from hero to zero. He gets the gift of a 3-0 lead and chokes on it, and now they're down 2 games to 1. I do think the Yanks are making a mistake pitching C.C. tonight on only 3 days rest, but we shall see.

I only watched the game intermittently because I was practically glued to the Oregon/USC game, and what a beautiful thing to see Petey Carroll get his arse handed to him. I understand the early high ranking due to their recent history, but they lost to a rather pathetic Washington and are still able to be ranked in the top 5?

Seriously, I had this game as a lock with Oregon getting 3 at home, and they put up over 600 yards of offense on the 'vaunted' USC defense. I say that with tongue in cheek because they lost 9 or 11 starters from last year. They still have a lot of talent, but top 5 or even 10? I don't think so.

It appears that no team has been totally dominant this year, with nearly all the highly ranked teams narrowly escaping defeat at some point. I think it's wide open this year.

What say you?
