Pac-12 Power Rankings: Ducks and Huskies separate into a tier of their own
Week 5 of Pac-12 football is complete, and the West Coast continues to dominate college football.
The most exciting results this week were USC’s narrow victory over Colorado and Utah’s offensive meltdown against Oregon State. The top three teams in the conference, Washington, Oregon and USC, played unranked opponents, which made it feel a little bit like the calm before the storm.
As we close September, each team’s identity is becoming solidified. That doesn’t mean there isn’t room for Utah or Oregon State to bring a late-season push for the conference championship, but we definitely have a better idea of who each team is.
Below are the Ducks Wire Week 5 Pac-12 power rankings:
Stanford Cardinal | (1-4) (0-3)
Arizona State Sun Devils | (1-4) (0-2)
