The Pac-12 has been dragged through the mud in every direction and then some...not without justification either. Lots of people have already written us off as listing in the water and sinking.
But after 3 non-conference games we have 5 undefeated teams and 4 teams with 2-1 records for a combined 23-4 record of our top 9 teams.
There have been some impressive wins...WSU beating Wisconsin on the road; Ducks over BYU and if you watched what UW did to Michigan State...the Huskies have zero resemblance of what they looked like the last few years.
Some teams which have caused misery to Pac-12 teams in recent years, San Diego State and Fresno State have both lost 2 games to Pac-12 teams.
I like what I see heading into Conference games. Perhaps a little national respect is coming our way too🙏

The B1G has some real stinkers in the conference and maybe only a couple really good teams.
Northwestern managed to lose to bottom dweller Southern Illinois. Yeah, they're a team near the bottom of the the Missouri Valley.
It's conseavable the Pac could have 6 teams compeating for a top 25 ranking. Not that I think we'll get 6 ranked beating eachother and all.
USC has a lot of doubters, but their offense looks legit at this point.
