    @ThomasFremont

    At what point are you going to talk about the things that UW did right in the first game?

    I'm discrediting Oregon because their defense will prove to not be championship quality. Again, that's my opinion and you can disagree with it.

    HOWEVER, to look at teams from last year and say that that's the case for the following year is insanely FS. Cal lost the #1 pick in the draft at QB, all of their WRs, and their defense is charmin soft. Utah lost the balance of their entire offense from last year. ASU is very mediocre and lost a ton of pieces on both sides of the ball. So yes, I'm discrediting them from the National picture.

    I'm not dooging out at all about the UW performance against Rutgers. They won easily against an overmatched opponent. That's what they're supposed to do. Let's see what they do against Arizona before we even think of either crowning them or claiming that they fucking suck.

    It's not that they didn't do some things right. Obviously they won, and are much better than Rutgers. I never said they sucked. I said you were an idiot for putting them into the playoff picture after beating Rutgers.

    11-1 with this schedule does not get into the playoff unless every other team has 2+ losses. OOC is fucking trash, and so is the conference. You just made the case for me that all those teams except for Stanford are bad.

    Including UW in any playoff scenario based on this game is doog 101.

    Listing UW as a playoff contender after beating Rutgers is as doog as it gets. Especially if you omit all the other 1-0 teams.

    7 PAC teams are 1-0 ... 4 in the North and 3 in the South

    Starting with the South, none of them are going to run the table ... you are looking at arguably the bottom half of the South being undefeated. Utah's offensive problems will likely earn them a loss to BYU on Saturday.

    Cal's not a legit threat to be a playoff contender ... a bowl game will be good for them and they will lose this weekend to San Diego St. Oregon's defensive issues put me in a position where I do not expect them to be a serious threat ... I will reconsider that position if they go to Nebraska, win, and look good doing so.

    That leaves Stanford and UW ... both ranked high enough with expectations that COULD put them in a position if they handle their business .... UW's schedule is SIGNIFICANTLY more manageable than Stanford's
    I like to dismiss other teams for their weaknesses while ignoring our own.

    I like to do that.
    UW was a preseason Top 15 team ... only Stanford was rated higher. Of the other undefeated teams in the conference, only Oregon was ranked.

    If you want to criticize me for my dismissing of Oregon that's one thing ... but to act like Cal, Colorado, ASU, or Utah are going to go 11-1 is FS.
    So when Oregon wins number 13, you won't be butthurt though, right?

    A prediction: Utah will lose to BYU Saturday. And still win the South.

    The Selection Committee has long stated that they do not favor 2 teams from the same conference making it into the Final Four ...

    I'm not saying that UW is a Top 4 team at this point ... what I am saying is that of the teams that could make it to the Final Four out of the PAC, the only 2 realistic candidates that I see are Stanford and UW.

    It's not that hard to understand.

    Personally, I don't think that the PAC will be in the Final Four this year.

    My takeaway from watching 5 minutes of the game. Browning sucks. He threw what should have been a pick 6 in that time but the defender plays for Rutgers so he sucked more.

    It's far too early for UW to be considered a true contender for the PAC-12 title. Husky Football is like premature ejaculation: A lot of early excitement, followed by a disappointing finish.
    Sounds like you care
