West coast soft....Rail said Utah’s defense was the best in the West....
Utah gets embarrassed by the Big 12.....

Awful spot for Utah: teams that lose their conference championship game and miss the playoff are a fade.
The PAC 12 needs to dramatically toughen up the nonconference schedule. No reason the Rose Bowl can’t schedule a Kickoff classic- type of game like Atlanta and Dallas do.Would have been a BIG FRAUD entry into the Final Four.
They had nothing to play for, then again don’t lose to Oregon.Piece today on msn quotes qb saying the team treated the spot as a vacation.
PAC 12 is a joke.
I wonder if a "power 5" conference can get deleted over time? Or these 5 forever the power 5?
PAC 12 should be eliminated and/or replaced by another conference.
Yes, if they could recruit in state they'd be fine, especially California.
Unless I read it wrong it said the top 25 recruits ALL went out of state. Not a single one stayed to play at USC/UCLA.
Down here in Florida the big 3 (Fla/FSU/Mia) aren't getting many of the premium guys any more like they used to.
More stayed in state than California but not like the old days when all 3 schools were powerhouses.....
Most the best 5 star blue chippers leave Florida now.
Florida and California produce more HS talent than anyone else in the nation, Texas 3rd.
My Gator recruiting class is typical, decent but can't get the skill positions these days. Really need RB's/WR's (and QB's), no relief in sight.

Texas returns 15 starters while Utah loses nine.
Texas WR > Utah secondary
watch the USC/Utah game
I think there were really only three deserving teams. Not saying clemson didn’t deserve it (they did) but the resume of the ACC sucks. What people do is compare a team to another conference, and that isn’t fair. Utah really only has itself to blame as they lost in the conference championship. Their poor showing in the bowl had nothing to do with the conference either. It would be very unfair if the PAC 12 next season (asu, Utah?) has a BCS playoff quality team and was judged by this year.Oregon and Utah not top four in the country....I really don’t like comparing conferences that much but I can recognize a conference that is not deserving....PAC 12 has been that conference for the past few years...
Texas head coach Tom Herman improves to 4-0 in bowl games.
