Q: If Washington loses will everyone finally admit the PAC-12 is a soft/’fraud conference?

A: Washington is the headlining team out west again this season. However they have already stumbled.

The PAC-12 is struggling with respect as it is so another loss for Chris Peterson’s bunch would not bode well for their reputation as a conference.

I would not foresee another representative for the PAC-12 contending for the Playoff largely in part to inexperience or gruesome scheduling.
