No Friday games. No non-conference games. It’s the purest a Pac-12 schedule can be these days with six conference games running for about twelve straight hours from noon to midnight pacific. The first game looks like a bit of a mismatch on paper. The Cougs have improved through the year with better QB play from Jayden de Laura and a defense that has gone from atrocious to average. They lost last week to BYU but covered the 4.5 point spread, so you can fit that result to any Nick Rolovich narrative you choose. ASU led Utah 21-7 at halftime with control of the conference firmly in grasp, then gave up four straight TDs in a miserable second half.
