The Pac-12 should be a fascinating conference this season with plenty of talent on both sides of the ball. The top three teams – USC, Utah, and Oregon – are loaded and make up much of these All-Pac 12 rosters. These rosters are based on past production and projections for this season, with some talented players set to step into more prominent roles.

USC is heavily featured on the All-Pac-12 First Team, with Caleb Williams, Jordan Addison, and Mario Williams leading one of the highest-octane passing offenses in the country. Some have labeled Andrew Vorhees as the best interior offensive lineman in the nation. USC’s defense isn’t nearly as stacked, but Tuli Tuipulotu led the team with 5.5 sacks last year. Colorado transfer Mekhi Blackmon is featured on the second team as he is set to lead the team’s secondary.

Oregon has one of the best offensive lines in the country, and T.J. Bass was the team’s only All-Pac-12 First Team representative. Alex Forsyth made the Second Team last year and should be in for another strong season as he returns from injury. On defense, Oregon is loaded in the front seven. Noah Sewell and Justin Flowe are arguably the best linebacker tandem in the country. Brandon Dorlus is also on the First Team as a standout defensive lineman.

Utah loses Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year Devin Lloyd, but it returns two standout secondary talents in Clark Phillips III and Cole Bishop. Tavion Thomas remains the best running back in the conference, although he’ll be running behind a weaker offensive line that lost two All-Pac-12 representatives. Cameron Rising also returns after a standout 20-touchdown, five-interception season.

The talent isn’t confined to the top teams in the conference, however. Jacob Cowing transferred from Maryland and brings tons of upside to the Arizona passing game. Jaxson Kirkland has first-round buzz in the NFL draft. Ron Stone and Brennan Jackson are a standout edge-rushing duo for Washington State, while Stanford’s cornerback Kyu Blu Kelly will also get NFL traction.
