There needs to be some conversations at Pac-12 HQ after that display of atrocious officiating. No excuse. One of the most egregiously obvious mistakes I've seen in my five years of covering college football.

What's the rationale behind Oregon State finishing the season ranked below Oregon in both polls despite... 1) Having the same record *plus H2H win* 2) Beating four 10-win teams to Oregon's one 3) Finishing with a better bowl performance
