Things were weird in the Pac-12 this week. It was not a good week to play at home, and it was a VERY bad week to be from the State of Arizona. Is Utah that good? Is Oregon that bad? How many more beatdowns will the Cardinal have to dish out before the pollsters know Stanford might just be for real? So many questions, I guess we will just have to wait for the Answers. Anyway, Stanford at #20, Cal at 24, Oregon at 25, Notre Dame at 7. USC at 16, UCLA at 10, Utah at 12, and Northwestern at 17 in this week's Coaches Poll.
