    Look at what Oregon had to beat an FSU team with a Heisman QB and a 24ish game winning streak;

    Mariota- Heisman, NFL starter
    Freeman- Active yardage leader in everything and a 5-star recruit.
    Tyner- 5-star recruit and an NFL caliber back before his shoulders died.
    Carrington- Stud WR
    Allen- Olympic athlete
    Lowe- Insane edge blocker, solid hands
    Brown- All Conference TE
    Fisher- NFL starter
    Grassu- NFL starter
    Johnstone- All-American
    Armstead- NFL starter
    Buckner- NFL starter
    Ifo- 1st round lock until knee injury
    Hill- All Conference player

    The defense lead the nation in take aways. They lost to tOSU because Allen tore his ACL and Carrington smoked weed and talked shit. The Buckeyes played Cover 3 all night and put 8 guys in the box because we had no one left that could stretch the field.

    You need to be loaded on both sides of the ball, which UW isn't, and you have to stay healthy across the board now to have a shot. That's why Oklahoma got punked because their defense hasn't been legit since 1999 and tOSU got smashed last year with that garbage offense. The voters can't bail out these giant names anymore, which is nice.

    Clemson and Bama is Warriors-Cavs at this point. Everything else is just for shits and giggles.

    And no PAC 12 team will have a chance against either as long as Saban/Dabo are rolling. They are playing a different sport than the rest of the country, especially with oversigning and lax (or no) discipline. Oregon's best WR gets a DUI? Kicked off team. Alabama's best DL got a DUI the same week and received no suspension at all. The Southern teams/conferences actually care about football. The Pac 12 really doesn't.

    Simple fact.
    Case closed.
    End of discussion.

    Thanks to those of you that want to participate in a legitimate conversation and not resort to the same old boring name calling.

    I don’t remember the Pacific Conference being this poor. (I call it that because if I say “Pac-12” it only covers a few years)

    It looks like there’s one good team that can play with most teams save the top 8 or so as long as they (Washington) don’t have any major injuries. Seems like nobody ever gets hurt for you guys.

    I think Washington is going to stroll to a 12-0 injury free season then find it tough to match up with any of the top 4 to 6.

    Bama and Clemson are on another level. To beat them we would need to play our A+ game, make 0 mistakes, and hope they have an off game. Kind of like Oregons only chance against Washington this year.

    We? Have one of the best S&C coaches in the nation who keeps them healthy. Unlike some schools who try to make them run until they pass out and have to go to the hospital. We have had a couple big injuries like Byron Murphy and Chico Mcclatcher but surprise! Our coaches develop players so the depth behind them steps in and there isn't much of a drop off.

    Enjoyed your long winded quook frustration post. As far as doing something different... personally I wasn't a fan of that whole 7 win thing, trusting freshman to saviors to bring the program to relevance, and "cool" weeks and tigers and shit. I've been enjoying watching almost every player on the team consistently get better, bigger, stronger, and faster thing. I also like the 11+ win thing.

    Maybe I'm a doog who doesn't have standards. But I just don't see how we can match up with those guys. Auburn next year will be a decent measuring stick I guess altho I expect next year to be a bit of a rebuilding year compared to this one.

    Auburn sucks.
