A handful of readers started this week fired up.

One reader let me know he is hopping mad about the Big Ten’s scheduling bias against the teams in the Pacific Time Zone.

“It’s calculated hazing,” the reader wrote.

Another is ticked off about the lack of regard for the greater good from conference leaders when it comes to the College Football Playoff format ideas. I received questions this week about Oregon football, Oregon State’s expectations, Washington State’s sports offerings, Memphis, UNLV, Grand Canyon, Saint Mary’s and much more.

Oh, and roadside blackberries?

Safe to pick and eat or nah?

Thanks to all who submitted questions.
