With an out-of-conference record of 22-5, including records of 4-2 and 1-1 against the Big-10 and SEC, respectively, the Pac-12 has the body of work to be considered one of the top conferences in the nation.

No. 2 Oregon and No. 5 Stanford are the top two teams in the Pac-12, combining to win the last four Pac-12 conference championships. UCLA, No. 17 Washington and No. 23 Arizona State are the other nationally ranked teams while USC and Arizona are both getting votes in the polls.

Here’s a breakdown of the teams’ play so far and our predictions for their likely end-of-season record (not including the post-season) and where they will land in postseason play.

Pac-12 North Division

1. Oregon – 3-0 overall / Prediction: 13-0 overall record (10-0 Pac-12) – BCS national championship game: Alabama vs. Oregon – With wins over ACC and SEC opponents, the Ducks have proven that they can travel and beat any team in the country. Oregon tops the country with 25 touchdowns while ranking second with 61.3 points per game and 672 yards of total offense. Heisman hopeful quarterback Marcus Mariota has thrown for 889 yards and seven touchdowns while rushing for 262 yards and four touchdowns. De’Anthony Thomas is averaging 113 yards and two touchdowns per game on the ground while wide receiver Josh Huff averages five catches for 100 yards per game.

2. Stanford – 2-0 overall / Prediction: 11-1 record (8-1 Pac-12) – Rose Bowl: Ohio State vs. Stanford – The Cardinal return eight starters from last year’s defense that was one of the nation’s best according to ESPN. All-American candidates Shayne Skov, Trent Murphy and Ed Reynolds highlight the defense. Stanford had questions at running back entering the season but running behind a massive offensive line is Tyler Gaffney with 40 rushes for 236 yards and three touchdowns.

3. Washington – 2-0 overall / Prediction: 9-3  record (6-3 Pac-12) – Valero Alamo Bowl: Oklahoma State vs. Washington – Washington already has a signature win on the season, defeating then No.19 Boise State 38-6 in the season opener. Quarterback Keith Price is looking like the 2011 version of himself, passing 51-for-66 with 666 yards and four touchdowns. Bishop Sankey is quickly becoming one of the top running backs in the country, rushing 60 times for 369 yards and three touchdowns, an average 184.5 yards per game, tops in the country.

4. Oregon State – 2-1 overall / Prediction: 7-5 record (5-4 Pac-12) – Gildan New Mexico Bowl: Oregon State vs. Fresno State – The Beavers have the conference’s worst loss, a 49-46 defeat to FCS opponent Eastern Washington in the season opener, but they’ve rebounded with two nice wins against Hawaii and Utah. Quarterback Sean Mannion is 95-for-130 for 1,237 yards and 12 touchdowns throwing to wide receiver Brandin Cooks. Cooks is the team’s biggest offensive threat, having caught 29 passes for 498 yards and 7 touchdowns (No. 1 in the country) on the year.

5. California – 1-2 overall / Prediction: 6-6 record(4-5 Pac-12) – Pinstripe Bowl: Houston vs. California –  True freshman Jared Goff has been a revelation for Cal this year, throwing for 1,306 yards on the season, the most of any quarterback in the country. His top targets have been Chris Harper and Bryce Treggs who have combined for 49 catches, 641 yards and four touchdowns. Cal has played the toughest schedule of any Pac-12 team thus far, losing to Northwestern and Ohio State. Both teams are ranked in the top 20 of the country.

6. Washington State – 2-1 overall /Prediction: 5-7 record (3-6 Pac-12) – The Cougars already shocked the nation by going down to Southern California and defeating USC 10-7 in week two.
