Pac-12 North Schedules & Predictions
Pac-12 Team Previews, 5 Things To Know
North Cal | Oregon | Oregon State
Stanford | Washington | Washington State
South Arizona | Arizona State | Colorado
UCLA | USC | Utah
Pac-12 North Predicted Finish
T1. Oregon
T1. Washington
T3. Stanford
T3. Washington State
5. Cal
6. Oregon State
– Unlike the Pac-12 Preseason Team Rankings – based on how good the teams are – these are all about trying to predict where everyone will finish. The North will be fascinating with Oregon, Washington and Stanford all terrific, Washington State flying under the radar, and with Cal a handful if it gets just a little bit of an offense.
– The North teams will pick each other off. Oregon has to go to Washington and Stanford – to go along with road dates at USC and Utah from the South. Stanford gets the biggest break with the top North teams coming to Palo Alto, and with no Utah to deal with. Washington will be the biggest call considering the overhaul on defense. But if it can beat Oregon …
– The Apple Cup won’t matter. Of course, it’s always a big deal, but the winner of the Duck-Dawg showdown on October 19th should have the North wrapped up by the end of the regular season. Washington State doesn’t leave the state after November 9th.

– Unlike the Pac-12 Preseason Team Rankings – based on how good the teams are – these are all based on predicted finishes. The South teams are a massive mystery. Will USC really be able to bounce back and be dangerous again? Can UCLA rise up after a clunker of a first season under Chip Kelly? Can Utah be as good as it’s supposed to be despite the improved division? By a mile, this is the hardest Power Five division to figure out.
– Who has to face the big boys from the North? UCLA, and Utah get the good fortune of missing Oregon, and UCLA catches another big break not having to face Washington, either. Arizona State also misses the Huskies. On the down side, USC and Colorado don’t get Oregon State.
– Last season only two South teams went bowling – Utah and Arizona State – but three others went 5-7 and UCLA will be far better than 3-9. This time around as long as Arizona can get by Texas Tech, and if UCLA doesn’t whiff against Cincinnati and San Diego State, those two should be able to hit the six-win mark.
