This week’s Pac-12 picks

What a bummer. Went from being perfect to missing a game. Maybe it’s time to quit? Wonder how I’ll feel at the end of this week? As always, the listed line is for your entertainment purposes only. All games Saturday except those listed. USC at California (USC by 3), Thursday: The Trojans have not been that impressive and have yet to win on the road. Tonight’s the night. USC, 49-21. Utah at Pittsburgh (Pitt by 7): Over the years the Utes have been out-of-conference giant killers. Maybe it continues, maybe not. Pitt, 24-21. Colorado at Washington (UW by 14.5): It seems like this would be a good time for a Husky letdown. Just can’t see it happening, though. UW, 42-21. BYU at Oregon State (OSU by 2.5): Still don’t believe in the Beavers just yet. Not until they show a running game. BYU, 27-21. Arizona State at Oregon (Oregon by 16): All the Sun Devils need to do to upset the Ducks is hold on to the ball. They won’t. Oregon, 34-28. Stanford at Washington State (Stanford by 21): This is a chance for the Cougars to show their pluck. Though they may not have their health, they do have pluck. Stanford, 42-28. Last week: 4-1 overall, 4-1 vs. spread; Season: 39-8 overall, 26-14 vs. spread.
