The NFL draft hasn't been too kind to the Arizona Wildcats recently.ย
Last year, the UA was the only program in the Pac-12 to not have a representative in the draft, and the Wildcats have had just 13 players selected since 2011, which is one more than last-place Washington State.ย
How does it compare to the rest of the "Conference of Champions?"
1. USC, 42
2. Stanford, 41
3. UCLA, 37
4. Washington, 33
T5. Oregon, 31
T5. Utah, 31
7. Cal, 28
8. Arizona State, 20
9. Oregon State, 19
10. Colorado, 18
11. Arizona, 13
12. Washington State, 12
