This week in the Pac-12 Power Rankings, the Oregon Ducks and UCLA Bruins both lose. 

We’re going down, down in an earlier round
And sugar, we’re going down swinging
I’ll be your number one with a bullet
A loaded god complex, cock it and pull it
We’re going down, down in an earlier round
And sugar, we’re going down swinging

Sugar We’re Goin’ Down by Fall Out Boy

And then there was one. After a weekend that saw #12 Oregon and #16, UCLA fall in upset losses — UCLA a far bigger upset than Oregon — the #7 USC Trojans are the last Pac-12 champion with an opportunity to make the College Football Playoff. The Victory Bell game between USC and UCLA has not had this much importance in a long time.

As for the rest of the conference, the #10 Utah Utes can play their way into the conference championship game with a win against the aforementioned Ducks. Oregon had better hope Washington does not beat them twice, and they are ready for the Utes. The bottom of the conference is awful.

Stanford and Colorado don’t look like they will get off the mat anytime soon. Arizona State is flawed but has shown signs of life. California head coach Justin Wilcox needs to find an offensive coordinator quickly.

So, to not-so-civil-wars, cups of apple, and bells of victory, here are your Pac-12 Power Rankings after week 11.
