My Unbiased Take on Every Pac-10 School's Football Program and Fanbase

Arizona
-Not a team you want to play in November.
-When playing in months not named "November," they don't matter.
-Mike Stoops is a jackass.
-Ugly stadium.
-Uneducated football fans and not very classy.
-Cool modern uniforms.

Arizona State
-Classy fans, great gameday atmosphere, hot girls.
-Consistently competitive football team.
-Hasn't been able to get over the hump since 1997.
-Dennis Erickson is a dirty recruiter.
-Stadium needs a renovation, but it's in a great spot.
-Has the ability to become the next USC.

California
-Fans aren't used to winning and thus think they are more important in the college football world than they really are.
-Students are loud, rest of the stadium appears asleep.
-Beautiful spot for a stadium, but it's falling apart.
-Too many hippies, not enough parking spaces.
-Jeff Tedford is a great coach and has his most successful years ahead of him with the new training facilities being built.
-Needs real tailgating areas.
-Having a "yell leader" is really lame.
-Band does awesome halftime shows.
-Really dumb mascot.

Oregon
-With consistent success since 1994, fans have become arrogant and unjustly so, as Oregon has not been to a BCS game since 2001.
-Fans are loud, hospitable, loyal, and create the best atmosphere in the Pac-10.
-Tailgating atmosphere is great.
-Uniforms have gotten downright silly.
-Facilities are the best in the country.
-Mike Bellotti's career is coming to an end, where Chip Kelly looks to take over should have ample success with Oregon's recent successin recruiting.
-Very fun offense to watch.
-Best stadium on the west coast.

Oregon State
-Mike Riley has proven his worth. He consistently takes talent-lacking teams and gets the most out of them.

-Can't sell out games, even with only 45,000 seats.
-Fans aren't used to winning and they show it with their lack of class and humility.
-Drunk hicks flood the stadium.
-Tailgating areas smell like manure.

Stanford
-Beautiful new stadium with great acoustics.
-Classy uniforms.
-Jim Harbaugh has done a good job improving the program.
