The 2012 Pac-12 media poll is out and ... hey, look at that! Not last! The Washington State Cougars were picked to finish fifth in the poll, just barely ahead of Oregon State. Oregon was picked to win the North, USC to win the South and the Trojans to win the title game in overwhelming fashion.
Full results are right here:
NORTH DIVISION
1. Oregon (117) 732
2. Stanford (5) 533
3. Washington 502
4. California (1) 382
5. Washington State 228
6. Oregon State 205
SOUTH DIVISION
1. USC (117) 729
2. Utah (1) 514
3. UCLA (2) 435
4. Arizona 385
5. Arizona State (3) 353
6. Colorado 164
PAC-12 TITLE GAME CHAMPION: USC (102 votes)
Others receiving votes: Oregon (18), Arizona State (3)
So, basically, the poll shakes out just about how we thought. You know, except for Arizona State getting three votes to win the South and three votes to win the title game (troll hard, idiots). Utah finishing second in the south shouldn't be a surprise, nor should Colorado finishing last in the division.
That's all I got. I hate preseason polls.
