    Does USC getting their shit together with Sam Darnold at QB make that game the toughest left on the schedule?

    Yes.
    agreed. Though I still feel like SC is full of Sark frontrunners and if they get behind in the Seattle rain and cold of Husky Stadium, they will fold.

    3 losable games left.

    #1 Apple Cup Cougs have righted the ship (50% chance of losing)
    #2 SC easily the most talented team. (40% chance of losing)
    #3 @ Utah best defense left. (30% chance of losing)

    Everyone is expecting a loss somewhere in the last 6 games not because any of those teams are better than us? but because going undefeated is really hard man.

    Is this roster as 'upset-proof' as you could hope for, though? They have a badass defense that travels and can play anywhere, balanced offense that can run it down your throats or air it out, and a QB that protects the ball very well. That covers most aspects of an upset.

    #1 and #3 percentages should be flipped

    Did Jenny Cohen ever take you out to lunch?

    Is that what the kids are calling it these days? What was for lunch? The fancy feast?

    I think you nailed the coogs as the most dangerous game as long as Falk starts. USC worries me, though they're fumble prone, which this defense would feast on. Still, Darnold looks like their best qb since Leinart, and the talent is still insane.

    And this is why you are Doogstone ...

    I highly recommend you focus in hard for the last 19% of the next TSIO podcast

    Actually all percentages should be 0%

    HTH.

    Those percentages are ridiculously high.

    You have the WSU game as a pick em? Sagarin rates us 10 points better on a neutral field.

    Could this husky team beat the 91 team

    I agree on the balance with our? offense and the thing that concerns me is when the weather turns to shit and a decent D forces us to try running the ball on them, can UW execute and dictate the game.

    5 lose-able games

    @Utah - altitude, they aren't completely terrible
    @Cal - second game of back to back road trips
    USC - have talent, might wake up
    ASU - because we've done dumb things like lose to ASU in the past for no reason
    @WSU - short week on road, biggest Cuog game in 15 years

    We? should win them all, but weird things happen in college football.
