Still way too early college football rankings, though 1 through 4 seem solid. Utes squeak in, Ducks squeezed out.

    That'll make this year's 4-5 conference record look worse than past years'

    You mean there really is such a thing as 4 -5 > 4 -5?

    Dearest Michael Yam,

    The Huskies have played NO ONE! THEY ARE RANKED TOO FUCKING HIGH AS IT IS!

    Whoever wins louisville houston is in the playoff, we could run the table and be on the edge.

    Who gives a shit? I'd prefer we be ranked #1. It makes no fucking difference anyway.

    If—by some miracle—we go undefeated, then I would rather us get in the playoff because we were ranked too high early than miss it because of some other bullshit.

    I understand us being skeptical here. We should be. But let's not throw the baby out with the bath water. It's better for UW to be ranked higher. That's what I want.

    There is literally no downside to it other than disappointment and only fucking doogs try to avoid disappointment preemptively.
    The AP and coaches poles don't determine the playoff.

    It's a long season, no one knows who the final four will be. If the Huskies miraculously run the table, they will have a legitimate shot. Just for example and to point out the obvious, the current top four includes Ohio State and Michigan. One of them is guaranteed a late season loss. Do both get in with one unbeaten and one a one loss team? Maybe, but I doubt the panel would do that.

    I don't disagree, except it's FS to complain about slipping in the polls when the team that jumped you is unbeaten with a much higher quality win. Yam is the ultimate Poog.

    Last week everyone was talking about the clash between Clemson and FSU to decide a playoff spot, and then FSU got dumpstered by Louisville.

    Last year Iowa almost got in. Iowa.

    Lotta football to be played. Especially since our? season is just about to start.

    UW gets in at 13-0 unless the SEC champ, ACC champ, B1G champ, and Houston are all undefeated.

    None of this will matter on October 9th anyway.
    It might not matter long before that.

    @TierbsHsotBoobs - I know they don't determine the vote, but let's not act like they aren't influenced by national perception.

    Watching the game this morning, enjoying #WarriorPoet yogi both say our? ranking is justified AND that we might be a year away because we're young.

    The sark is strong in that one.

    I would feel better about 3-0 if one of the wins was over Oklahoma State or Wisconsin

    I prefer Dennis DeOxys over Dennis DeAlchy
    I broke my legs, knee, ankles, heel and hip to serve you better.
