It’s a slight slate of action in the Pac-12 for Week 5. This conference held the spotlight nationally last Saturday, as three league games had the nation’s attention with Utah’s victory over Oregon, USC’s easy win over Arizona State, and UCLA’s key South Division win over Arizona. The matchups in Week 5 aren’t as appealing, but there’s still plenty of intrigue. UCLA looks to remain unbeaten against Arizona State, while Stanford takes on Arizona. The Wildcats won’t have star linebacker Scooby Wright due to a foot injury, while the status of quarterback Anu Solomon is also up in the air. Elsewhere in the Pac-12, the Ducks look to get back on track after last week’s loss, and California hosts Washington State.
