looking back, and I'm not trying to defend the pac-12, the out of conference results sans USC vs Alabama and WSU against Eastern weren't that far off from what you would expect.
Most of the Pac-12 teams that were ranked preseason and lost in the OOC ended up being awful. Colorado was leading at michigan until they lost liufau

If USC plays that game vs bama now it's a different story

People forget that aTm beating UCLA in OT was a quality win in the eyes of some.

People forget that.

Sagarin is a joke. No fucking way is the P12 North better than the B1G East.

Sure Sagarin's ratings are a joke, all they did was pick games at a 73% rate straight up and 52% against the spread.

Picking straight up is not that difficult. The point spread alone predicts the outright winner over 75% of the time. It's not hard to identify who is favored before kickoff. See Phil Steele study for details.

The mid-week line got the straight up winner correct 72.5% of the time this season.
Beating the spread by even a couple percentage points is very difficult when you are predicting every game.

Understand vs the spread. Picking straight up is a different scenario and very easy. From 97 to 2011 it was correct over 75% of the time.

Well, this year it was only right 72.5%. I saw somewhere else that 10+ pt dogs won at something like twice the normal rate this season.

Except for Rutgers, they're better than the bottom three of the P12 North.

Your silence about the top half speaks volumes.

So you haven't watched Oregon, Oregon State, or Cal this year?

There's a reason half of the Pac-12 didn't even make bowl games.
