Are any Utah opponents likely to be ranked at the end of reg season? UW? USC?

  Apart from the Ducks, which other P12 teams could be ranked at the end of reg season?

  Possible. Right now Washington is ranked #35 and USC is #39. If they win out there’s a good chance.

  Probably not. Any of them would have to win out…
  
  UCLA might be ranked if they win out. That gives them a birth in the pac12 championship game, a 6 game win streak and a win over Utah.
  
  If USC wins out they would be 8-4 with a win over Utah. They would be ranked if Utah loses and they are in the pac12 championship game
  
  If ASU wins out they would be 8-4 with a win over Oregon. Very slim chance of being ranked.
  
  Washington could win out and be 8-4 but they don’t have any good wins.

  UW, Cal, USC, and ASU. If they can finish 8-4 they’ll have a shot at bottom 20.

    Yeah UW and USC are already receiving votes. If they both win a couple more they’ll be in, especially based on their name.

  There are VERY few ranked “8-4” teams. There’s a good chance that a “9-4” team finishes ranked after the postseason, but ONLY if they’re a P5 school, and ONLY if they they win their bowl game.
  
  But by the time the CFP committee looks to make their Top-4 selections, there won’t be any 4-loss Pac-12 teams in the polls.
