The even year schedules are always brutal.
The USC game is just a September thing now.
I do like that BYU is last, as that will mean the final conference game is Big Game.

The schedule does illustrate why the Pac-12 lacks CFP representation.
Only one game looks like an easy W, Colgate.

Even the absolute worst teams in the SEC will still have 3 OOC sure thing home Ws on their schedule.

That then enables the conference to have loads of undefeated and one loss teams battling each other in high profile conference games in October, and likely two or more undefeated or one loss teams left for the SEC CG.

Once the new TV contract is negotiated, the PAC-12 will probably revert to an 8 game conference schedule (the new commissioner has discussed this topic a couple times).  This will open up the schedule to create matchups between the Alliance members.  As part of this change, look for the end to the annual games v. USC and UCLA.  I would a expect a divisionless conference with one everyone receiving one guaranteed conference game annually (v. the rival school) and a rotation of the other seven.
