Utah

While Arizona State controls its own destiny, Bill Connelly of SB Nation believes that Utah has the best odds to win the Pac-12 South. Read his statistical explanation in the link.

Arizona State

The Arizona Republic shows us that Arizona State wide receiver N’Keal Harry is moving up NFL mock draft boards – every outlet that The Arizona Republic looks at has Harry as a first-round pick, with one analyst seeing Harry going as high as No. 3 overall.

USC

USC head coach Clay Helton says he feels supported by the university, writes Kyle Bonagura.

Oregon State

Oregon State men’s soccer coach Terry Boss was named Pac-12 Coach of the Year, while Sofian Djeffal was named Pac-12 Freshman of the Year, it was announced Wednesday. Here are the full Pac-12 men’s soccer all-conference honors.

Washington State

With Arizona set to take on the Cougars this weekend, the Arizona Daily Star’s Greg Hansen looks at how Mike Leach has had success at Washington State. Back in 2011, Leach expressed interest in the Arizona head coaching vacancy that was eventually filled by Rich Rodriguez.

Oregon

John Canzano takes a look at what has been ailing Oregon football these last few weeks. I don’t know, I guess it can’t just be the fact that they’ve had three tough road conference games in the last month? Not every good coach in the Pac-12 can go 10-2…

UCLA

This has kinda been seen as a rebuilding year for UCLA women’s basketball in having to replace two huge pieces from last year’s Elite Eight run in Jordin Canada and Monique Billings, and it may very well still be, but hats off to the Bruins for upsetting 14th-ranked Georgia 80-69 at home Wednesday afternoon, outscoring the Bulldogs 31-18 in the fourth quarter to get it done. Michaela Onyenwere led the way with a career-high 25 points and 11 rebounds.

Washington

Yes, Washington State is on the horizon for the Dawgs, and yes, the opponent this weekend is lowly Oregon State, but Washington football insists it isn’t looking past Oregon State, writes Adam Jude.

Stanford

Even though the Cardinal has won eight straight against Cal, Stanford football coach David Shaw doesn’t believe Cal has a motivational advantage over the Cardinal for Saturday’s Big Game.

Colorado

Colorado football is motivated by the opportunity to gain bowl eligibility in the Utah game, writes Brian Howell. The Buffs have lost eight straight games when stuck on five wins on a season, Howell notes.

California

Rusty Simmons features Cal defensive lineman Luc Bequette, who was named Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Week after having a career-high eight tackles and two sacks in the win over USC.

Arizona

Here’s the Pac-12 Networks recap of Arizona men’s basketball’s 79-46 win over UTEP behind 21 points from Brandon Williams and Brandon Randolph. ‘Twas the 50th straight home non-conference victory for the Wildcats.
