We are five weeks into our Pac-12 Pick’Em and Adam is slowly running away with the thing. Sure, he’s only one game up on Parker, but with a week with so many similar picks like this one, and with those shorter conference weeks coming up, making up ground will be hard to do. Last week was rough on all of us, thanks to teams like USC and Utah choking away what we thought were sure wins. I was the only one to miss Stanford’s road win at Northwestern; I did come pretty close on the score, however. I had the Wildcats winning 71-69, but they fell 70-68. So now, we enter week five. New Mexico’s visit to Cincinnati and Missouri’s meeting with UCLA headline the list as our games of the week.

| Coppin State at ASU | Arizona State | Arizona State | Arizona State | Arizona State |
| Hartford at Colorado | Colorado | Colorado | Colorado | Colorado |
| Towson at Oregon State | Oregon State | Oregon State | Oregon State | Oregon State |
| WSU vs Idaho State | Washington State | Washington State | Wash State | Wash State |
| Washington at UConn | Connecticut | Connecticut | Connecticut | Connecticut |

| Lafayette at Stanford | Stanford | Stanford | Stanford | Stanford |
| Dayton at USC | Dayton | Dayton | Dayton | Dayton |
There’s only a single difference in opinion this week, as Drew is taking the visiting Lobos over host Cincinnati. I am the only one picking the Tigers-Bruins match-up to be a close ballgame, with Missouri pulling out a five-point victory in Los Angeles.
