Underwhelming Debut for Pac-12

OK, well...week one in the books for the new Pac-12.

UO Ducks...you have a lot of work to do. Sure, you were playing by far the stiffest competition in week one compared to other Pac-12 teams. However, you could give North Dakota State College for the Blind Girls School South Campus Annex four turnovers (two of them right by your own end zone) along with 100 yards in penalties and probably not win. Give those same turnovers and penalty yards to LSU and...well... you are toast. And you were. Thanks for coming to Dallas and being so giving. Figure it out starting with Nevada next week or it could be a very long season.

UW, sorry...your rise into the top part of the league is on hold. You all won vs. Eastern WA, but not very convincingly. Three points. Really? Get better against Hawaii next week or it will be another 6-6 or maybe 5-7 season.

WSU...congrats. You pounded Idaho State.

USC, you just got by Minnesota.

Oregon State, you lost to Sac State...at home.

UCLA, you lost to the University of Houston.

Colorado, you lost to Hawaii.

Stanford, Arizona, Utah and ASU...you beat respectively the powerful lineup of San Jose State, Northern Arizona, Montana State and UC Davis.

Not very impressive from top to bottom.
