Predicting the Pac-12: Week Nine
Well we have to get this out now since Thursday night features one of the best games of the weekend.
Kudos to college football for making Thursday night a little more entertaining. I mean there is the NFL but come on, we’d all rather watch college.
Let’s jump right into this weeks picks and take a look at the slate of Pac-12 games.
Utah @ Washington State
(Thursday) 7:00 – FS1
Big game. Great game for the Pac-12. I think a Utah win helps Oregon a little more but either way it won’t matter much as long as Oregon keeps winning its own games. This one seems like a real ‘trap game’ for Utah but we haven’t seen the same Wazzu we saw at the start of the season. It will be closer than it should be.
37-31 Utah
Oregon @ Cal
12:30 – FS1
Here is my prediction from earlier this week.
55-12 Oregon
USC @ Arizona
4:00 – Pac-12 Network
Arizona is improving but a week off and USC is probably going to be pretty tough to beat. The more physical teams have a better shot at beating the Trojans and Arizona is not very physical up front.

ASU @ Colorado
4:30 – ESPNU
A couple of bottom tier teams here duking it out. Not much to watch but probably something you’ll check out after the Oregon game. Possibly.
27-17 ASU
Stanford @ UCLA
7:30 – ESPN
This is a tricky game for UCLA. Coming off a tough Oregon game you had all eyes on and you face a team that is typically well-coached. I do think UCLA is by far the better team and the ability to run the ball successfully should help them avoid a let down.
40-24 UCLA
