[quote author=SeattleTree link=topic=13294.msg136202#msg136202 date=1445529941]Why not swing for the stars?

Because there's basically 0 reason to think that the distribution of wins in the Pac-12 (outside of Stanford's) matters to us for anything besides getting to the CCG. Therefore, just like in the NFL you always root for the other conference and divisions, we should always root for the south over the north.
