The Pac-12 is halfway through the bowl schedule, and the conference is off to a 4-1 start.
I'm not particularly surprised by any of the four victories. Utah and Washington State caught opponents in the midst of coaching transitions. Arizona would have had no excuse for losing to an outgunned New Mexico team.
I thought Washington would be too much for Southern Mississippi, although the Huskies' offense was a revelation. If other programs in the Pac-12 aren't just a little nervous about what Chris Petersen is up to in Seattle, well, they should be.
Nebraska's victory over UCLA in the Foster Farms Bowl -- the Pac-12's lone loss thus far -- wasn't surprising either.
