We love us some lists here at the Pac-12 blog. And the folks at Athlon Sports keep obliging, so we'll keep running them.

Last month they brought us the much-debated Pac-12 coach rankings which spawned a Take 2 and a poll that registered more than 7,500 votes.

Now they have ranked the Pac-12 quarterbacks.

In compiling their rankings, they took into account 2011 numbers, the sort of personnel returning in 2012 and how each quarterback is expected to perform.

Here's the ranking:

Matt Barkley, USC
Keith Price, Washington
Jeff Tuel, Washington State
Sean Mannion, Oregon State
Bryan Bennett, Oregon
Zach Maynard, Cal
Brett Nottingham, Stanford
Kevin Prince, UCLA
Jordan Wynn, Utah
Matt Scott, Arizona
Mike Bercovici, Arizona State
Connor Wood, Colorado

Don't think we're going to just leave it at that. Ted and I are already in the works of compiling our own quarterback rankings for this week's Take 2. Look for it on Friday. Until then, have some fun with this one.
