Pac 12 Preview and Predictions

For each of the conference Predictions I will put in both the Predicted Finish according to Win-Shares, as well as my own personal predictions (which are largely very similar).

 

Pac 12 Win-Shares

North

 

Oregon – 7.96 (5.63)

Stanford – 7.58 (5.38)

Washington – 7.64 (4.92)

Washington St – 5.72 (3.4)

California – 4.72 (3.1)

Oregon St – 4.65 (2.81)

 

South

 

UCLA – 8.78 (6.54)

So California – 7.87 (5.89)

Arizona – 7.56 (4.85)

Arizona St – 6.53 (4.25)

Utah – 6.3 (4.06)

Colorado – 4.77 (3.17)

 

UCLA over Oregon in the Championship game.

 

In the North it appears to be a 3 way race (which much of the media is predicting) between Washington, Oregon, and Stanford. In the South it will come down to UCLA and Southern Cal. Utah takes a significant drop as does Cal after losing the focal point of their offenses.

 

Simplified Football Predictions

North

 

Stanford = 10-2 (7.2)

Oregon = 9-3 (6-3)

Washington = 8-4 (5-4)

Washington St = 6-6 (4-5)

Oregon St = 4-8 (2-7)

California = 4-8 (2-7)

 

South

 

UCLA = 10-2 (8-1)

USC = 9-3 (7-2)

Arizona = 8-4 (5-4)

Utah = 7-5 (4-5)

Arizona St = 6-6 (3-6)

Colorado = 3-9 (1-8)

 

UCLA over Stanford in the Pac 12 Championship game.

 

SF has Stanford finishing ahead of Oregon in the North and the same outcome in the South (UCLA over USC). SF doesn’t have Utah falling as far and still making a bowl game at 7-5. The rest is pretty much as the Formula thinks.

 

That is 8 bowl teams for the Pac 12

Fiesta Bowl – UCLA (Playoff)

 

Rose Bowl – USC

Alamo Bowl – Stanford

Holiday Bowl – Oregon

Foster Farms – Washington

Sun Bowl – Arizona

Las Vegas – Arizona St

Cactus Bowl – Washington St
