Fans pick Utah as Pac-12 surprise team
Over at ESPN, they've been running a group of polls for every conference (and the non-BCS overall) asking a whole host of questions. One of the questions asked was what Pac-12 team would surprise the most in 2011. Utah ran away with the voting, scoring an impressive 33% in the five-team race....
