Leland Wong: Let’s start using some comparative data to rank teams! In our power rankings, we’re evaluating Pac-12 teams by factors like strength of performance and pulse of the fanbase across the whole season, but especially in the last week.

If I had to venture a guess, I’d say we don’t usually have this many comparative data points this early in the year.
