Cal and Colorado look like probably wins. UCLA, OSU and WSU look like losses. Based on where it seems they are, I wouldn't be surprised if the drop one at home.
After the Stanford game I thought they could play with and beat any team but Oregon. They were tuff, hit hard, had balls. What the fuck happened? Coaching is the only thing I can think of.
It almost seems like when sark has some success he takes his foot off the gas as if all the work is done and he can coast. House money. The talent is there. This is a 10-2 team talent wise. But a 4-8 team coach wise. They meet in the middle. I'm now saying 6 wins.

and they will get back onto his jock. just you watch.
I think after the Oregon loss the players realized they couldn't play for the Rose Bowl. They are veterans so a lot of them are probably in the "fuck it" mode right now. Tired of playing in minor bowl games and were actually thinking we'd play in a Rose Bowl.
This wasn't the same team that played Stanford.
I have a different theory. Sark's program of week-long preparations for the next opponent, whatever it is, does not allow sufficient time and effort for fixing glaring problems such as penalties, OL/DL deficiencies, or the mediocre kicking game, much less allow for actual team or individual improvement as the season goes on. It was so obvious on Saturday that aside from the head to the desert, ASU's coaching staff had Sark for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Call it laziness or something else, but I think Sark like Gilby and Neuheisel before him, prefers to work on the fun stuff during the week at least to the extent that the hard boring work on discipline and fundamentals are to some degree neglected by the head coach. Thus, the defense likely doesn't get as much scrimmage time or scout team work during the week as needed and special teams are largely neglected, all so the head coach can have his fun tinkering with the new offense.

Sark doesn't know what he is doing, that is the problem.
