    UW has a chance to go undefeated with that schedule. Both teams share the 5 home game rotation this year but the Huskies face Stanford, Colorado, Oregon State and Arizona on the road(in Pac12 play) while Oregon is at UW, USC, Stanford and ASU. If you're a "contender" you want the tough ones at home and the easy ones on the road, and by and large UW's schedule is perfect. Oregon's is the opposite.

    People are catching on to this

    UW splits the Oregon and Stanford games. It's an advantage

    Non-contenders pretty much want that too.
    I'd argue they want the opposite. The beavs are gonna lose to the UWs of the world anyway, so why have a home game wasted on that? While getting, say, CAL at home instead could be the difference in getting bowl eligible.

    Oregon's schedule could look really easy by the time the season ends. Should I be worried about playing on the road against teams projected to be 6-6 or 7-5? Oregon needs to learn to win on the road and that's whether they play at Arizona, CAL, and WAZZU or USC, Stanford and ASU. Those three opponents are really interchangeable based on expectations. Your schedule is easier because you get Oregon and UTAH at home. However, we are splitting our two most difficult teams.

    Stanford and USC will be shit this year.

    I do like his smugness.

    That team lost so much and their schedule is relentless. They usually struggle up at corn valley too.

    They have Northwestern, @SC, @UCF and then Oregon, @OSU and then Washington. That's brutal returning 9 total starters.
