After a disastrous week one in picking games, I am back to try my luck again in Week Two.
With the first week over, now we have a better idea of what each team is capable of doing on the football field. We have learned plenty about the Pac-12, including some surprises and some disappointments. The Washington State Cougars are going to suck this year.
The Sun Devils of Arizona State were overrated and not ready for a big time game. The Cal Golden Bears might be contenders in the North division. Stanford is taking another step back. UCLA and USC are going to fight it out for control of the South division.

However, even with all of that knowledge, some teams are still a mystery. A close loss to Boise St could mean that the Washington Huskies are better than expected, or it could have been a one week emotional boost with the coach playing his former employer.
Arizona looked bad in a win over Texas-San Antonio, but they looked just as bad last year and ended up in the conference championship game.
And the Utes took care of business in defeating the Michigan Wolverines in Jim Harbaugh’s coaching debut, but what does that really mean for the rest of the season?
With those questions in mind we turn to week 2, and preview each game with a prediction against the spread.
