Welcome to the first edition of this year’s Pac-12 Football Power Poll! Here, I rank all 12 teams in the conference based on their overall performance over the course of the season (This does not necessarily reflect which teams I believe are the best. This is purely based on performance). Last week’s rankings will be listed on the opening slide.
Since I did not have a preseason Power Poll, our baseline ranking for this week’s changes will be one in which teams are ordered by points received in the preseason AP Top 25 Poll. Teams that received no points are ordered by their expected win totals in CG Technology’s preseason over/under lines. Both conference and division rank are listed.
Last Week’s Power Poll:
UCLA Bruins
1/1N. Oregon
2/1S. USC
3/2S. UCLA
4/3S. Arizona State
5/2N. Stanford
6/4S. Arizona
7/5S. Utah
8/3N. Cal
9/4N. Washington State
10/6S. Colorado
11/5N. Washington
12/6N. Oregon State
Now that that’s out of the way, let’s get started.
