As much as the conference schedule is boner inducing, EWU and the rainbow warriors are the saltpeter that saved my sweatpants from an unsightly tear.

Recency bias

It's a great home conference schedule for sure. Getting USC and Utah from the south on a year we host the Oregon/WSU combo is basically ideal.
The shit non conference slate knocks it down a ton though.
Off the top of my head 2007 was much better:
#20 Boise coming off an undefeated season
#10 Ohio State
#1 USC
#7 Oregon
Arizona
Cal
Cuog
Four of the five he listed from this year (no Utah), plus Boise, tOSU and Zone. Four top 20 opponents, three top ten and a number one.
I'm sure there are others but that blows this out of the water. -

Our AD turned pussy.
I miss WASHINGTON, dammit. -
In 2000, UW had an incred home sked, hosting (and beating) two eventual top five finishers in Miami and the Beav. Plus an inspired barnburner comeback win over Zona (think Willie Hurst goalline pirouette), one week after Curtis got hurt.

I was at that Beav game. One of the best I’ve seen live. SC vs Beav in whatever year that OS broke their PAC winning streak was Really good too. Those were the best games I’ve seen live. And that’s pretty sad.TTJ said:In 2000, UW had an incred home sked, hosting (and beating) two eventual top five finishers in Miami and the Beav.

Best since Finland Played Russia in November 1939.

It was a point of pride when we were one of the few teams that didn't schedule FCS opponents. There is nothing positive that comes out of those games other than getting the depth on the field. You blow them out, congratulations you beat a team that doesn't belong. You play a close game, the perception of your team takes a huge hit. And with the CFP, perception is everything.dnc said:
