Pac-12 Media days are underway in Los Angeles and the league has released the media projections for the league. Oregon received the most votes and is projected to win the North as well as the Pac-12 title; however Colorado received the fewest amount of votes overall and is projected to finish last in the Pac-12 South.
The North division is going to be a two-horse race between Stanford and Oregon, but the South seems to be wide open as four teams received first place votes between USC, Arizona State, Utah and Arizona. However, USC is ineligible for the Pac-12 title game, so the South looks to be between Arizona State, Utah and Arizona.
Here is how the media voted:
North Division
1. Oregon (29) - 239
2. Stanford (13) - 220
3. Washington - 142
4. Oregon State - 120
5. California - 110
6. Washington State - 51
South Division
1. USC (24) - 230
2. Arizona State (13) - 207
3. Utah (4) - 170
4. Arizona (1) - 140
5. UCLA - 89
6. Colorado - 46
Finish at or near the bottom was most likely the outcome since Colorado had not performed well in the Big 12 over the past few years and they are breaking in a brand new head coach.
