Last week, it felt like the chaos gods of college football forgot to visit the West Coast for the first time in a long time. This week, while the lower parts of the conference saw some churn, and the Midwest and South saw plenty of weird stuff happen, the top of the Conference of Champions remained immune to the chaos.
It took just seven weeks for the Pac-12’s playoff contention to be whittled down to one, maybe two teams. After eight weeks, those two are still barely in the hunt, while the rest of the conference keeps chugging towards its ultimate goal of every team going 6-6.
