PACIFIC-10 GAMES AT A GLANCE.


Washington State (2-0) at Illinois (0-2)

Time/TV: 9:30 a.m./ESPN2.

Matchup: After edging USC and UCLA, the Cougars get a winless Illini team and could be well on their way to a 7-0 start.``When we scheduled these games, we took the feeling that this was an opportunity of a lifetime,'' Washington State coach Mike Price said. ``We sure ran with that in the right direction.''

Arizona (1-1) at Ohio State (0-2)

Time/TV: 12:30 p.m./None.

Matchup: This game marks the beginning of a rough road for the Wildcats. After playing the ninth-ranked Buckeyes, Arizona must contend with No. 2 Washington, No. 14 Arizona State, No. 19 Washington State, No. 21 Stanford and No. 24 UCLA. Ouch. ``We will sell this as: Go for it, have fun, enjoy it,'' Wildcats coach Dick Tomey said.

Stanford (1-1) at Oregon State (1-0)

Time/TV: 1 p.m./None.

Matchup: The Cardinal (1-1) heads into the game in a sour mood after letting a big one get away last week at No. 6 North Carolina, a 28-17 loss. ``I hope we're angry and upset that we didn't realize our expectations,'' Stanford coach Tyrone Willingham said. ``Am I angry? Am I upset? Yes, I think you could say I'm not a happy camper.'' Last year, Stanford QB Chad Hutchinson was sacked 11 times by the Beavers in Oregon State's 26-12 upset victory.

Fresno State (1-2) at Oregon (2-0)

Time/TV: 2 p.m./None.

Matchup: Last year, Oregon escaped with a 30-27 victory at Fresno in one of the first overtime games under new NCAA rules. The Bulldogs are 13-9 all-time against Pac-10 opponents, but are 17-1/2-point underdogs after being routed 35-0 last week by Oklahoma State. Junior QB Jason Maas, who came off the bench to lead the Ducks past Nevada last week, will make his first collegiate start.

Oklahoma (1-1) at Cal (1-0)

Time/TV: 3:30 p.m./FSW FSW - Family Support Worker

.

Matchup: This is only the third meeting between the schools. The Sooners have won both of the other meetings. Oklahoma is coming off a 36-34 win over Syracuse that not only broke an eight-game home losing streak but showcased a dominating running attack that included a 239-yard effort by DeMond Parker. Cal's Justin Vedder, a JC transfer, threw for 321 yards, the best initial performance by a quarterback in Cal's history, in the Bears' victory over Houston.

BYU (0-1) at Arizona State (2-0)

Time/TV: 7 p.m./FSW.

Matchup: Brigham Young has scored in 276 consecutive games, an NCAA record. The last time the Cougars were shut out was in a 20-0 loss at Arizona State in 1975. Hmmm. The No. 14 Sun Devils might be ripe for a letdown after last week's win against Miami but consider this: WAC teams are 13-15 in nonconference games but 0-7 against ranked teams.
