UW 2025 Schedule Thread

I'm not overly optimistic. I could easily see 7 wins and that spun as improvement. Still doesn't mean I think we're cold Fisch but I want more now, especially in the portal era.
Colorado State - W
UC Davis - W
at Coug - W, even with their top o the line grease this might be the year the portal does a number on them. Seems like Mateer might not leave though. Long/short don't feel great here. Narrow win for now.
Ohio State - L - they have to replace their entire depth chart on the fly and may be starting a young QB first road game so there's a chance. Day sucks too. Just can't pick us to win this game.
at Maryland - W, but could easily be 2025's Rutgers and on a Friday
Rutgers - W
at Michigan - L - they actually lose a ton of talent that should have won them more games this year but I'd pick whoever has this game at home
Illinois - W
at Wisconsin - L - they should suck but tuff road game
Purdue - W
at UCLA - L - want to say win but how many times have we won there the past 40 years and we generally have to be five times better than them to win there
Oregon - L - Can't wait to see what 18 new starters portal in. They seem to have gotten their Midas touch back in Eugene. Feels like another Duckade type loss.

7 wins an improvement?
Fire him now

Disagree.
Year 3 is still the barometer, so long as year 1 is minimally acceptable and year 2 is an improvement.
Literally no one else has done what DeBoer did here in the history of CFB. That was the exception and not the rule.

You hate Fisch more than I do and it's a new ballgame sparky
Add Cigarette at Indiana to the list
Win or get the fuck out as I reminded this morning
No downplaying expectations and throwing away years
Even Rick won the conference in year 2
-
I mean making the playoff year 3 is the bare fucking minimum. Which means you might want to try to have that box checked by year 2.

2026 will be special
EWU, Wazzu, and an unknown cupcake for OOC
Indiana, Iowa, Minn, PSU at home
Michigan State, Nebraska, Purdue, USC, Oregon the road
10-2 floor

I thought that about 2025. PSU/ at Oregon/at USC isn't really that different than tOSU/Oregon/ at Michigan. The rest is meh. Mich St is the same as Wisconsin. I guess Maryland is a longer flight than Purdue by an hour.
Big picture strategically kinda felt they were the same.
But the tactical assignment of the schedule fucked us with the byes. Or I guess pre-fucked us since we haven't lost yet, but definitely isn't set up to benefit little old Washington.

Fisch was hired based on his year 2 in Zona. If he can't do that here then there no reason to believe he ever will
-
It was Penix and Grubb. deBoer is a flacid fuck without them.

Assuming the portal season is fruitful (getting a KState OT today is a good start) … then it would not be surprising to see that the game vs Oregon is for a spot in the CFP for UW
