Some quick notes.
Five teams play five home conference games: Arizona State, Oregon, Stanford, USC, Utah and Washington. Yes, that's a big advantage, courtesy of the nine-game conference schedule.
At first glance, USC seems to have a very favorable schedule.
The California schools play every year, so California and Stanford in the North won't miss USC or UCLA in the South. Fans like that. Coaches don't, particularly when the "misses" aren't favorable.
