Utah week

It's Monday and that means it's time to start thinking about Utah. We'll speak with coach Mike Leach and three players this afternoon, tomorrow we'll join the Pac-12 coaches teleconference and on Wednesday don't miss our live chat.

For now, let's follow the jump and get to those links.

-- In the paper today we follow Saturday's game with a story about the challenge the Cougars now face to improve from their solid performance.

-- At practice last night we were able to speak with a couple assistant coaches to get their thoughts on the Oregon game.

-- The basketball team landed a new recruit last night.

-- Washington State will face an undefeated opponent on Saturday, but not a ranked one.

-- Because it was nearly 2 a.m. when we got around to links last night, we forgot to include this column on the game from Bud Withers.

-- A linebacker from California went to Washington's game and decided that he wants to be a Husky, despite the ugly first half.

-- Some Arizona fan reactions to the Wildcats' miracle win over California.

-- Arizona State-UCLA is quickly becoming the Pac-12 South's top rivalry.

-- Oregon's coach would prefer not to talk about a blown no-call near the end of the WSU game.
