Block U Pac-12 Picks: Weeks 1

Russ Isabella-USA TODAY Sports

Here we go! It's time for the college football season to kick off, so we jump in and predict the games for week one of the season. Take a look at our picks for the week.

Michigan @ Utah UTSA @ Arizona CU @ Hawaii Weber @ OSU UW @ BSU Stanford @ NW Port St @ WSU UVA @ UCLA Gram @ Cal A&M v. ASU EWU @ Oregon Ark St @ USC
Shane Utah Arizona Hawaii OSU BSU Stanford WSU UCLA Cal ASU Oregon USC
Alex Utah Arizona CU OSU UW Stanford WSU UCLA Cal ASU Oregon USC
Adam Utah Arizona CU OSU BSU Stanford WSU UCLA Cal ASU Oregon USC
Andrew Utah Arizona CU OSU BSU Stanford WSU UCLA Cal ASU Oregon USC
Joseph Utah Arizona CU OSU BSU Stanford WSU UVA Cal ASU Oregon USC

A couple quick reactions to our week one picks, where we were by-in-large in agreement. I'd watch out for Hawaii over CU. That's a long trip for the Buffs, plus Hawaii has brought in a bunch of transfers that should help that roster. Also, I really want to pick UW over Boise, because I think UW has a lot of talent, but on the road in Boise, I can't do it. I'm also not 100% sold on Stanford going to NW and getting the win. NW is a solid program, and I think the Cardinal are overrated this year. And I think A&M and ASU is a pick em. It's down in Texas as a "neutral site" game, but I think ASU's overall talent will overcome.

What are your picks? Are we close?
