Interesting that Stanford tied for votes received with...Harvard. Based on last year's results and who's coming back, I think that might be a slight to the Crimson.
In any case, interpolating these results, the coaches have ranked Pac-12 teams as follows:
Arizona (2)
Stanford (T-26)
Utah (30)
UCLA (33)
Oregon (35)
Colorado (T-36)
I have to say that I'm with garvin on this one, unless last year's reserves have transformed over the summer a la Landry Fields a few years back. Or maybe it's just that the rest of the conference, excluding UA, is really weak this year.

If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)
