— The Pac-12 is loaded at QB, but who are the best of the best? It’s not as easy as you think. Oh, and all are transfers — go figure.

1. Caleb Williams, USC

— Hard to argue against the Heisman winner, even in a conference loaded with talent.

2. Bo Nix, Oregon

— I like him at No. 2 because he’s such a threat in the running game.
