Pac-12 football: Week 2 predictions from Buffs Wire, Ducks Wire and Trojans Wire

Can the Pac-12 have an improved week?

Week 1 of the college football season felt like it lasted forever. Games began on Thursday, and Clemson-Georgia Tech was the final game on Monday night.

From a Pac-12 perspective, this upcoming weekend had its fair share of improbable games. Oregon getting blown out by Georgia wasn’t exactly a surprise, but the Ducks didn’t even score a touchdown.

The Colorado Buffaloes coming out flat against TCU was a bit of a surprise, and Week 2 doesn’t get much easier for Karl Dorrell’s team against Air Force. USC won, Utah lost a thriller to Florida and the rest of the conference was pretty straightforward.

Wins should be more common for the Pac-12 in Week 2, although a few games are tough to call.

The Pac-12 College Wires staff has compiled their predictions for Week 2. The staff includes Don Smalley, Zachary Neel and Andy Patton of Ducks Wire; Jack Carlough, Matt Wadleigh and Tony Cosolo of Buffaloes Wire; and Matt Zemek and Donovan James of Trojans Wire.

College Wires regional editor Patrick Conn also gave his predictions. Let’s check them out.
