Every single Pac-12 program won this past weekend, and with USC’s Week Zero win, the Pac-12 has begun 13-0 in what appears to be the final season of the conference.
Colorado’s stunning upset over TCU was the biggest of them all, and Cal thumping North Texas was somewhat surprising given the Golden Bears’ status as a downtrodden program with low morale.
In Week 2, there are some notable matchups, including the first Pac-12 showdown with Stanford coming to USC, the scene where Clay Helton was fired in 2021 following an ugly loss.
The panelists are back for another week of picks: Matt Zemek, Matt Wadleigh and Donovan James of Trojans Wire, Jack Carlough and Tony Cosolo of Buffaloes Wire, and Don Smalley and Zachary Neel of Ducks Wire.
Here are the picks for Week 2, and there is a common theme: The Pac-12 gets the win in another set of nonconference matchups.
