We'll be discussing the new Pac-12 Title Game format.

Also, whatever that game was that @Swaye wanted us to play.

    Ironically, we've been gaining audience despite the deepest apathy for Husky Football in decades.

    The site is always better after a loss. So I'm not surprised.

    Joking aside, the site's numbers are down to 2014-15 levels.

    If the new conference ccg rules were in place starting in 2011 would that year's champion be a different team, in any year?

    2016 I'm not sure USC gets into the game but I'd have to look it up.

    Which reminds me, what is going to be the tie breaker if a few teams tie for 2nd and didn't play each other.

    If the new commissioner isn't playing games about making playoffs, you pick the highest ranked team in the official CFP poll.

    I can see that, but that would suck.

    I'd look at common opponent record and then who the fuck cares after that because it's going to be stupid.

    I hate common opponent. Because one team puts on a chokehold and beats the Beavs by say 40. Another team steps off the gas and wins by 28. Do you want to penalize the team that won by 28 instead of 40?

    That is exactly what they will do, and is why they are doing this in the 1st place.

    Well the Seattle Times article said that it would be based on conference winning percentage

    From the PAC-12 news release, 2016 would still be UW vs Colorado but the 2018 game would be an Apple Cup rematch.

    Even though it’s been a big lull in the history of the program I still look forward to doing the podcast every time.
    What does this say about your family and friends?

    Also, when I first read that, I thought it said "Iuli" in the history of the program and I was trying to remember if the Dawgs ended up signing Straw Hat Vita.

    Losing at home to Montana ran some people away. I don't blame them.

    Then got blown out by Michigan then lost in embarrassing fashion to Oregon state before even opening conference play.

    Then in conference play went ahead 21-7 and had to win a nail biter in OT to fucking Cal.

    Pretty obvious that even backing into a north title was a pipe dream after that game
