Pac-12 football boasts some unique, exciting talent on the offensive side of the ball.

Cal's Jared Goff is one of the elite passers; Oregon's Royce Freeman can run the ball like no other. Washington State quarterback Luke Faulk seems to score every few seconds; Utah running back Devontae Booker is a threat to win the Heisman. But who leads the conference in points per game?

@ChantelJennings No one guessed this, but, it's Utah K Andy Phillips. He averages 9.5 points per game. Freeman is No. 2 - 9.4 pts/game.
