Pac-12 football game predictions: Week 3

The two most interesting games on the #Pac12 slate this week: Washington at @TheSpartansWire and Fresno State at ASU.

The first two weeks of the college football season have gone well for the Pac-12 Conference, and more than half the teams in the league have earned spots in the latest top 25 rankings.

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, Myles Dwyer and Zachary Neel of Ducks Wire.

With everybody looking forward to Week 4 and Week 5, this week should be pretty chalk with not very many exciting games on the schedule. Follow Spartans Wire for coverage of its game against Washington, one of the few high-profile Pac-12 games this week.

Here are the picks from the panelists, and the USC Trojans have the week off.

Pac-12 football game predictions: Week 2

Oregon-Texas Tech. Colorado-Nebraska. Utah-Baylor. Cal-Auburn. USC-Stanford. We pick these and other #Pac12 games in Week 2.

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.

We are making all sorts of predictions, now that the 2023 college football season is fully upon us. USC got the party started in Week Zero, but now everyone joins in for Week 1.

USC game predictions appear in one article at our site. Oregon picks can be found in another separate piece.
