The heart's in it then, spinning dreams, and torment is on the way. The heart makes dreams seem like ideas.

Arizona cornerback Trevin Wade has regained his focus and swagger.
Arizona State defensive tackle Corey Adams is emerging mostly because he's healthy.
Trying to figure out how to feel about California's situation at quarterback.
Colorado has a walk-on punter and other depth chart notes. Jon Embree is not afraid to play freshmen.
Lache Seastrunk's departure likely means a couple of freshmen will see action.*Frosh tight end Colt Lyerla is now a backup.
Where do things stand with Oregon State receiver James Rodgers? What are the issues as the Beavers scrimmage today?
Stanford was mostly impressive in its scrimmage. Ticket sales are up significantly.
UCLA is still uncertain at kicker. Some notes, including frosh quarterback Brett Hundley's return to practice. More on that here.
Competitions continue on USC's defense. Predicting the depth chart: offense and defense. The D will be better with two minutes left.
Apparently the transition to Norm Chow as offensive coordinator -- which included a pair of demotions -- has been smooth at Utah. If there's a full moon, this Utes running back might be money.
Washington cornerback Desmond Trufant is ready for his close-up. Sean Parker also looks to be a hit in the secondary.
Washington State wideout Jared Karstetter is hoping for a payoff after remaining true to the Cougars. Making the case for Coug optimism.
