Another exciting week of Pac-10 basketball is in the books. I'm particularly proud of the Arizona Wildcats this week. The gutty win over an N.C. State Wolfpack team that is much better than their record reflects. It's about time the Wildcats started to get into form. I'm just hoping it was the next step of an improving team, and not an aberration.
Your AZ Desert Swarm staff did pretty good this week, going 14-2, and maintaining a white-knuckled grip on the the middle spot in the rankings.
-Week 5 Winner: A tie! It's a deadlock this week, between 'CougCenter', and 'UW Dawgpound'.
-Overall Pac-10 Pick 'Em Leader: 'UW Dawgpound'
-Fan Submission Winner: 'GoCougs' Very good picks. Can't wait to see how GoCougs does in the future.
