Last week I went 9-2, and again I’m not picking against the spread. Week two I was 8-3. I was 10-2 in week one. If we’re keeping count, that puts me at 27-7 on the season predicting the Pac-12 games.

This week we got some great games ahead and we’ll get a much clearer picture of the conference.

Let’s get into the games and the picks. (All times listed in PST)

Colorado @ Oregon

12:30 PM – ABC

You already know I picked Oregon in this one. I remain confident in that pick and excited to see this one play out. Ducks win big.

UCLA @ Utah

12:30 PM – FOX

I think Cam Rising will be back. Which makes a dangerous Utah team even more dangerous. I like Chip’s team but in the past he’s had issues with physical teams. Utah very much fits that mold. Utes win.

Arizona @ Stanford

4:00 PM – Pac-12 Networks

Stanford is a ways off and Arizona does have a solid offense. It looks like it’s going to be a long season on the Farm. Zona wins big.

Oregon State @ Wazzu

4:00 PM – FOX

Low-key the next best game in the conference this week. Tough one to call. I’m going to give Wazzu the edge here because they are at home and Pullman is a tough place to play. Afterwards they will all share a warm embrace as the last remaining Pac schools.

Cal @ Washington

7:30 PM – ESPN

Keep winning UW. It will make it that much sweeter when Oregon wins in a few weeks.

USC @ ASU

7:30 PM – FOX

Blowout on deck. Nothing to see here.
