Ahead of Friday’s Pac-12 Media Day, the conference released its media poll showing WSU finishing seventh. Utah was the runaway winner with 26 first place votes. Oregon is picked second and got two first place votes, while USC was picked third while picking up five first place votes.
Not too surprising given what we know about each team, though USC definitely has the talent to win the conference. Here’s the full media poll, and remember: the conference is doing away with divisions this season, at least when it comes to picking its championship game participants:
- Utah
- Oregon
- USC
- Washington
- Stanford
- Cal
- Arizona
- Colorado
My first initial thought on this poll is welcome back, Oregon State.
