Pac-12 Pick’em: Three Weeks Left
Posted by Connor Pelton on February 20th, 2013With only three weeks remaining, Adam continues to edge out the rest of us. Last week was rough on all of us, thanks to Stanford choking away what we thought would be easy home wins against the LA schools. I was the only one to correctly pick California’s home win over the Bruins, but I was also the only one to miss Oregon State’s road upset of Washington State. That seems to be the trend in the past few weeks, as all the parity in the conference is taking away any opportunities to make a comeback. In our games of the week, Colorado ran by Arizona on Thursday, while Georgetown went on the road and knocked off Cincinnati. So now, we enter the home stretch. California’s visit to Oregon and Georgetown’s meeting with Syracuse headline the list as our games of the week.
Game | Connor (60-27) | Drew (60-27) | Parker (64-23) | Adam (65-22) |
Wash State at Arizona St | Arizona State | Arizona State | Arizona State | Arizona State |
Washington at Arizona | Arizona | Arizona | Arizona | Arizona |
California at Oregon | Cal 71-69 | UO 71-61 | UO 68-64 | UO 74-66 |
Utah at Colorado | Colorado | Colorado | Colorado | Colorado |
Stanford at Oregon State | Oregon State | Stanford | Stanford | Stanford |
Wash State at Arizona | Arizona | Arizona | Arizona | Arizona |
Georgetown at Syracuse | GU 75-70 | SU 63-57 | SU 71-64 | SU 77-69 |
California at Oregon State | Oregon State | California | California | Oregon State |
Stanford at Oregon | Oregon | Oregon | Oregon | Oregon |
Washington at Arizona St | Arizona State | Arizona State | Arizona State | Arizona State |
UCLA at USC | USC | UCLA | UCLA | UCLA |
The biggest differences in opinion this week come in California’s visit to Oregon State. Adam and I took the home Beavers for the upset, while Drew and Parker took California. I was the only one to take both road teams in our games of the week, opting for the Golden Bears to rally and upset the still Dominic Artis-less Ducks and for Georgetown to get another big win at the Carrier Dome. I also differed in a couple other games, taking the Beavers to defeat Stanford on Thursday and the Trojans to complete their sweep of UCLA on Sunday.
