Pac-12 QB rankings: Washington State clicking with Luke Falk at the helm

It's time to look at the top quarterback performers after another week of Pac-12 play. We'll revisit this ranking each Monday. Remember that we're weighing the past weekend's performance more heavily than an overall season track record, so expect some variation here every week.

1. Luke Falk, Washington State: The Cougars are clicking. Falk threw for 514 yards and five touchdowns in Washington State's 45-42 win over Arizona, and the table is now set for a Halloween night showdown between the two leaders in the Pac-12 North. Falk has been excellent during the Cougars' current three-game win streak, and the Wildcats' leaky defense was no match for his balanced distribution to River Cracraft (eight catches, 102 yards), Gabe Marks (eight catches, school-record four touchdowns) and the rest of a deep receiving crew.
