Torn on Utah. I am always wary of csu. Worried about WSU. I could see an upset of either Washington or USC. Oregon St. is a game we should win but I think we will give it away in a close one.

Offensive player not named Phillip Lindsay most likely to earn all-conference honors: Winfree

Defensive player not named Isaiah Oliver most likely to earn all-conference honors: Javier Edwards

True freshman with biggest impact in 2017: Stefanou

Bold prediction (positive): Winfree and Oliver go pro after this year

Bold prediction (negative): The last three straight losses ends up with Montez not doing well at all, sparking an interesting off-season with Noyer having shown promise in his spot duty. And after the third straight loss to end the year, we get a bunch of new posters that like to whine and talk **** about the team and Mac.

Feels optimistic. I don't trust Montez' head, or the o line. I'm fearful the receivers are overrated, and the d line and LB corp meet expectations. Special teams will be a **** show.​

Oregon State - Toss up, but I will say WIN!!
Wash State - Toss up, but I will say WIN!!!
Cal - W
ASU - Toss up but I will say WIN!!
USC - L (Course give me a nice big early snow storm and I will change my mind)
Utah -Toss up but I will say loss...booo...

Guess that means I am going with the ever popular 8-4 but clearly I think there will be four games that are very close and I gave CU a 3-1 record in those games...

Bold prediction (positive): Steven Montez will be a top 10 rusher in the Pac-12.

To the bold, the Aussie kicker Stefanou seems to be pretty solid in practice, no?
 
C'mon man, you call this bold?!?

He was tied for 6th in the conference last season so your bold claim is that our punter will have a fractionally better season. You can do better than that.
When it comes to our special teams, every prediction is bold! But seriously, you're right. I'll amend mine to say that Montez tops 3800 yards passing and finishes at #4 in the conference.
