As the top four teams vying for a spot in the 2022 Pac-12 Football championship game play out the rest of their schedules, it’s hard to find major upsets on the docket for any of USC, Utah, Oregon, and UCLA.

But one of those potentially unlikely upsets could be in store on Saturday when the Bruins travel to Tempe to take on a surprisingly feisty Arizona State team playing under an interim head coach in Shaun Aguano.

On today’s episode of Locked On Pac-12, I’m joined by ‘Locked On Sun Devils’ host Richie Bradshaw.

We go through the biggest storylines this week, headlined by a battle for a top-25 spot in Seattle on Friday Night between Washington and #24 Oregon State.

Oregon, USC, and Utah are all poised to cruise to victories this week to keep the Pac-12 title hunt highly competitive.

The other game of the week, however, should feature a highly competitive battle between Washington State and Stanford.

Can the Cougars get back to their earlier season form when they started 3-0 or will they continue to stumble in 2022 having gone 1-4 since then?
