ESPN’s Pac-12 Blog continues their series looking at what several Pac-12 teams must do to catch reigning Pac-12 champion Stanford. Next up: Utah.
X-factor: If the Pac-12 is driven by offense — and it is — then logic says this is a quarterback-driven league. Which it is.
Highly-touted, but not a fit for Chris Petersen in Seattle, Williams comes to Utah by way of Santa Monica College where he had tremendous success. He’s got Pac-12 experience, and Whittingham said that gives him a “leg up” in the competition to replace Wilson. He might be what Utah needs to get the offense back on track. He has dual-threat potential, but Utah doesn’t necessarily need a runner at the position. Some consistent accuracy in the pocket could be enough to take the pressure off of the defense.
The team with the best Defense (total defense) has won all five PAC 12 championship games. NCAA national Offense is in the first column. Defense the second. Defense is 5/0 in these games. The best Offense lost three of the five.
