The landscape of college football went relatively unchanged after week ten. For the Pac-12, the week was full of predictability, as there weren’t any upsets; there also weren’t too many close games to speak of. In other words it was a pretty boring weekend for those — meaning me — who liked the chaos of the previous week. Now, let’s get to the power rankings for the Pac-12.
-
Oregon Ducks: Oregon regained its title of the great spread coverers; the Duck’s 28 point victory over the Bruins was impressive.
- Stanford Cardinal: Stanford survived its trip to Corvallis. David Shaw’s late game management remains as questionable as ever, but not nearly as bad as Mike Riley’s was.
- Arizona State Sun Devils: ASU got the week off, and ya.
- UCLA Bruins: The Bruins were out matched in Eugene. That being said, most teams that head into Eugene are outclassed.
- Washington Huskies: Washington stomped on Cal at Husky Stadium. The Huskies homecoming game was about as anticlimactic as can be; although they did have a nice tribute to legendary head coach Don James.
- Oregon State Beavers: The Beavers were hoping to cement their place in the top-25. Instead Mike Riley happened, than crazy stuff happened, and then Sean Mannion threw an interception.
- USC Trojans: The Trojan offense struggled — again — but the Utes offense struggled worse.
- Utah Utes: Somehow the Utes managed to out derp the Trojans. As a result they lost 3-19.
- Arizona Wildcats: The Wildcats throttled Colorado.
- Washington State Cougars: The Cougs were on the bye.
- Colorado Buffaloes: Colorado fell to 3-4 (0-4) on the season with its loss to Arizona. It is going to take time in Boulder.
- California Golden Bears: Cal got obliterated by Washington in Seattle. The Golden Bears are left wondering how they have fallen so far.

Hey Coach, would you punt the ball when it’s 4th and 3, down eight with less than two minutes to go in the game?
