Pac-12 poll Notes ... USC made its 20th appearance all-time in the Top 5 in the AP preseason poll … Washington’s No. 8 preseason ranking is its highest since opening at No. 4 for the 1997 season. The Huskies have been ranked in the AP Top 10 for 17 consecutive weeks, the longest stretch in the Top 10 since 1990-92 (37 straight weeks) … It’s the seventh consecutive season that Stanford has appeared in the AP preseason Top 25. The Cardinal are one of eight teams to have appeared in the AP preseason poll in each of the last seven seasons, joining Alabama, Ohio State, Florida State, USC, Oklahoma, LSU and Georgia … Washington State made its third-ever appearance in the AP preseason Top 25 (also in 1952 and 2002).

Pac-12 Power Rankings
From ESPN … Over the past four days, Pac-12 teams went a combined 11-0, so let’s try to make sense of it.
1. USC
2. Washington
3. Stanford
4. Washington State
5. Colorado (1-0): Beat Colorado State 17-3. Remember those concerns about all the talent Colorado had to replace on defense? A week after Colorado State scored 58 points against Oregon State, the Buffs made the Rams look like a different team.
6. UCLA
7. Oregon
8. Utah
9. Cal
10. Arizona
11. Arizona State
12. Oregon State
