Weekly Pac-12 Rankings

The following rankings are based solely on what has transpired so far this season. I give no credit for any pre-season analysis or projections. Rather, I simply look at the way the teams perform, taking into account their varied levels of competition.

1		Arizona (3-0) | Last week: N/A: All the hype in Tucson has come true so far.
2		Oregon (2-0) | Last week: N/A: Season opening win against Georgetown was great for the conference. The Ducks look surprisingly sluggish at times, but always get the job done in the end.
3		Arizona State (3-0) | Last week: N/A: The Sun Devils look scary-good through three easy games. An important test against a struggling UNLV in Vegas this week.
4		UCLA (2-0) | Last week: N/A: Despite a close call against Drexel, the Bruins should have no problem with their next several opponents.
5		Cal (3-0) | Last week: N/A: Ditto: despite a close call against Oakland, Cal should cruise for the next couple weeks. And Jabari Bird is clearly one of the Pac-12's top freshmen so far.
6		Oregon State (2-1) | Last week: N/A: What a difference Collier makes! The Beavers looked unbelievable in the big win at Maryland on Sunday.
7		Utah (2-0) | Last week: N/A: Utah is picking up right where they left off last season, which is a great thing.
8		Stanford (3-1) | Last week: N/A: Quality win against Northwestern, but haven't looked impressive otherwise so far through its difficult non-conference slate.
9		Colorado (3-1) | Last week: N/A: Clearly outmatched against Baylor and had a difficult time putting Wyoming away.
10		Washington State (2-0) | Last week: N/A: This week presents a chance to avenge last year's narrow loss to Gonzaga. We'll learn a lot about the Cougars then.
11		Southern Cal (2-1) | Last week: N/A: You can't fault the Trojans for losing in Logan -- that's always a tough place to win. But then they came home and nearly lost to Northern Arizona.
12		Washington (2-1) | Last week: N/A: Bad loss to UC Irvine and needed a second half rally just to beat Eastern Washington.
