But for an improbable Coop fumble...

...UW is ranked right now. And is sitting at #2 in Pac12 power rankings with two up arrows.

It truly won't take Peterman long.

    Your power rankings are worse than Aubbie's. We still wouldn't be #2. How would we be above a UCLA team with fewer losses that beat us handily? Same with ASU. Stanford and UW would both be 5-4 and they also beat us.

    Some doog on Twitter during the apple cup plunger said "imagine if Pete had taken a knee against Arizona"... I replied, "UCLA would be in the pac12 championship and we'd still be going to a crappy bowel"

    I hate our fans sometimes

    Those teams would still rank above UW in traditional conference standings, yes. I guess I think of power rankings as something different, for better or worse, in that they have a strong recency bias. In the scenario I described above, UCLA, ASU and Stanford all would have lost since UW. And West Coast pundits would be talking about UW playing "the second best football in the league right now."

    It's all bullshit anyway. UW lost that game. I just think Peterman was #thatclose to being the toast of the league right now.

    5-4 is not the toast of the league when you have a team on the verge of the final 4

    Shitty QB play in the conference of quarterbacks isn't going to help with the toasting parade.
