2016 Rankings/Polls

Post by Chicat »

Never too early to get this started, right?
Has us at 34. ASSU at 40. Highest Pac12 team is Oregon at #10.
Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

No mention of ASU being a national championship darkhorse contender again?

Graham's best team ever I'm sure.

Not bad rankings I suppose.
10. Oregon
14. Stanford
16. USC
23. UCLA
25. Washington

No real title contenders for the pac but the league will be very deep and challenging again. Every team but Oregon state can be in a bowl. With hopefully a new life on defense, less injuries, a more favorable schedule and a bye we will improve. I think we do. Not going to go 11-1 or anything but I absolutely think 8-4/9-3 is doable. I think asu is a 4-6 win team next year. South really will come down to the UCLA USC game again.
i was going to put the ua/asu records here...but i forgot what they were.

i'll just go with fuck asu.

Clemson must have a lot of underclassmen declaring, because they only had 3 seniors on O, and 2 on D, that started in the NC game.... with only 3 more seniors on the 2-deep. That article talks about having to rebuild the defense again...

I was expecting them to be the clear-cut favorites next season.

I think Petersen is building a monster at UW. Wouldn't be shocked to see them finally break the Oregon streak this year and contend for the North. Next year that team could be really, really good.

http://www.espn.com/blog/pac12/post/_/i ... undefeated" target="_blank

1. Stanford 3-0, 2-0
2. Washington 4-0, 1-0
3. Utah 4-0, 1-0
4. Arizona State 4-0, 1-0
5. Colorado 3-1, 1-0
6. UCLA 2-2, 0-1
7. California 2-2, 0-1

8. Arizona 2-2, 0-1 (No. 9 last week)

The "what ifs" with this team are maddening to think about. They took Washington to overtime and put together probably their most complete game of the season on both sides of the ball. The running back depth is a concern moving forward -- especially with a trip to UCLA next week.


9. Oregon 2-2, 0-1
10. USC 1-3, 0-2
11. Oregon State 1-2, 0-0
12. Washington State 1-2, 0-0

it is interesting that we are a byu made fg and a turnover on a 4th and 1 near the goal line against UW away from being 4-0 and ranked.
