Pac-12 bowl projections heading into Week 7. Stanford is in midst of a funk we have not seen in the David Shaw era.

Stanford doesn’t want to have anything to do with the state of Washington these days.

A week after being physically overwhelmed by Chris Petersen’s Huskies squad, Mike Leach and the Cougars went on The Farm and had an easy time with the defending Pac-12 champs. The result dropped the Cardinal from the Rose Bowl this week.

The new team slated to head to Pasadena? Utah, which beat Arizona in Salt Lake City on Saturday.
