With four Saturdays to go until the first college football Saturday of the year, this seems as good a time as any to decide who is the conference’s best player.
In some ways — maybe even most — this is an exercise in insanity. If Chris Petersen ever hears that I took a stab at figuring out who the Pac-12 player of the year is when most teams haven’t even completed their first week of fall camp, I’m convinced a single tear would roll down his cheek as if he were a Native American at whose feet I just threw a bag of garbage.
