Pac-12 lunch links: Burfict's time to shine

[RSSBot]

By Ted Miller

Don’t call what you're wearing an outfit. Don’t ever say your car is broke.
Don’t sing with a fake British accent. Don’t act like your family’s a joke.
Have fun, but stay clear of the needle. Call home on your sister’s birthday.
Don’t tell them you’re bigger than Jesus. Don’t give it away.

• Keola Antolin and the other Arizona running backs did OK in the opener.
• With Missouri and ESPN coming to town Friday, Arizona State LB Vontaze Burfict will have the spotlight: Does he step up or does he falter? Injured CB Omar Bolden keeps himself busy.
• There's reason for how at California after QB Zach Maynard was solid in his first start. A post-Fresno State review.
• Colorado's biggest concern is the struggle of its offensive line at Hawaii. Offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy vows improvement.
• No word from Oregon on the status of LB Kiko Alonso, CB Cliff Harris and RB Kenjon Barner.
• Does Oregon State have a QB controversy? Another take on that.
• It wasn't all good from Stanford.
• The status of UCLA QB Kevin Prince is uncertain after he suffered a concussion and a shoulder sprain. Grading the Bruins.
• USC RB Dillon Baxter isn't happy. Grading the Trojans.
• Utah gets ready to visit USC with heavy hearts. The Utes debut wasn't impressive, so what have they got for the Trojans?
• Washington's pass defense needs to get better against Hawaii. Cheer up Huskies, you're 1-0, that's what matters.
• Washington State coach Paul Wulff regrets the bad luck, not the decision to play QB Jeff Tuel, who fractured his clavicle in the opener. While the Tuel injury is bad, being 1-0 is good.
• Sometimes reports of doomsday are premature.
