10 things to watch in the Pac-12: USC's Clay Helton makes his debut, again

Here are 10 things to keep an eye on this week in the Pac-12.

1. Overcoming obstacles: Two South Division teams this week -- Utah and UCLA -- will try to get over humps that had previously given them fits. UCLA has yet to beat Stanford in the Jim Mora era (0-4) and Utah has yet to beat Arizona State since joining the Pac-12 in 2011 (0-4).

2. Here comes the heat: Utah head coach Kyle Whittingham said this week his team will have to be able to handle ASU’s pressure. He’s right.
