The Pac-12 has seven ranked teams and a slew of high-profile matchups over the final seven weeks.
Oregon’s hotly-anticipated trip to Washington this weekend marks the onset of an unprecedented barrage of conference matchups between ranked teams over the final seven Saturdays.Once the No. 7 Huskies and No. 8 Ducks are finished with their 12:30 p.m. blood feud, No. 18 UCLA and No. 15 Oregon State take the stage on FOX for a primetime showdown.
Expecting a stellar season long before they knew it would be the last season, Pac-12 executives in charge of the schedule crafted a lineup that would offer one premier game each week for ESPN and Fox.Over the next seven weeks, the Pac-12 has 12 conference games scheduled between ranked teams, based on the current AP top-25 poll.No. 19 Washington State at No. 8 OregonNo. 15 Oregon State at No.
But the beauty of having so many top-25 teams — not just for the Pac-12 but any Power Five conference — is the vastly higher floor. AP voters typically don’t punish ranked teams that lose to other ranked teams in the same fashion they downgrade teams for losing to unranked opponents.We’ll have much more on the showdown later in the week, but let’s pose the first of two central questions here and now: How much pressure on Michael Penix Jr. will the Ducks generate with only four or five rushers? Because if they need to send six to disrupt UW’s aerial game, there will be plenty of open space downfield for Rome Odunze and Co.
