Nice! I keep an eye on the Massey ratings each week. It has us favored to win all our remaining games. The Stanford win had a big part in that I think. IIRC, before Stanford I believe it had us losing 2 (incl. Stanford and Colorado), and had us in a toss-up with Oregon.
Massey Ratings
Massey projections:
– South Division –
Utah projected to go 10-2 (7-2 in conference)
USC is favored in 5 of their next 7, 8-4 overall (7-2 in conf)
Colorado is favored in only 3 of their next 7 games, if that holds true, then they finish 8-4 overall (5-4 in conf)
Arizona is favored in 1 of their next 6, 4-8 overall (3-6 in conf)
ASU is favored in 2 of their next 6, 5-7 overall (3-6 in conf)
UCLA isn’t favored in any game, winless on the season, OUCH!
If all the south projections work out as above, then Utah wins the South with the tiebreaker against USC.
– North Division –
Washington is favored to win all their remaining games, (11-1, 9-0 in conf)
Stanford would finish 2nd (8-4, 7-2), followed by Wazzu (9-3, 6-3), Oregon (8-4, 5-4), Cal (5-7, 2-7), and Oregon St (1-11, 0-9)
Then Utah v Washington in the PAC-12 Championship game. I’d love another chance at the Dawgs.
Go Utes!!!
