31-7. Who goes to the Rose Bowl from Pac12?

Hard to say, I could imagine Under Stanford Control (again) getting the nod if CU keeps getting demolished, but the committee might also take some pity on Colorado because their QB was knocked out of the first half and is clearly gimpy, but would be fine come bowl time. It's pretty hard to say.

My thinking also. It would be annoying if an SC  team who we beat and has the same record goes, but they probably would deserve it.

The QB injury was actually the best case for the anti-SC crew.

Colorado can claim they are great when their QB is healthy, and really only looked awful when their QB was out (Michigan, Washington).  The ankle will be fine on January 1.  Therefore the good Colorado should be in Pasadena as Pac-12 South champs.  USC needed Colorado, with a healthy QB, to lose big.  Simply, the injury excuses the loss.  Committee has been very consistent in not penalizing CG losers.  Just think last year when Stanford playing and winning a CG didn't pass Iowa. 

Hard to believe a team losing because their QB was hurt, will fall behind a team, with one less win BTW, that did not win that same division.  Everyone can imagine USC without their current starting QB because that team went 1-3. 

UW - CFP
Colorado - Rose Bowl
USC - Alamo/Cotton (Texas either way)
And then the cascade down from there.
