It looks like we have occupied the bottom spot twice since that 2013 season.
Once was the 2014 preseason rankings (so just a symptom of 2013).
The second time was after Week 9 of 2019. What game was that, you ask? That 35–0 slaughter against Utah when we had to start our third-string quarterback.
Those line graphs are exquisitely uninformative…the PAC 12 truly makes no sense
I would call it a maddening conference, but we've already taken that term.
What a weird season. And Cal has fallen to it's worst performance since 2013

He has a completion percentage of 59% and has seven touchdowns to six interceptions. That doesn't sound like he's doing pretty well to me.
Mine, before looking.
1. Oregon. Still doing enough to win, and not much more.
2. Utah. That was...definitive, even if it wasn't much of an opponent.
3. ASU. Back on track against the hapless Trojans.
4. UCLA. Their body of work this year is still better than anyone below them except maybe Wazzu.
5. Wazzu.
6. Oregon State. Another poor defensive performance.
7. Cal. Did well to stay in the game given nearly half the team wasn't available.
8. Washington. Good running teams are a bad matchup for them.
9. SC. Offense is lame without London, defense is just lame.
10. Furd. Pretty bad with McKee, atrocious without him.
11. Colorado. Offense finally on track, but they still haven't done enough to jump even Furd.
12. Zona. They won...a squeaker, at home, against half a team, at 90 degrees.
I agree with sacman7071, Cal is #7.
