    UCLA has a brutal schedule this year playing @ Nebraska, @ UO, @ Stanford and @USC plus Oregon, ASU, Arizona and UW at home. Their defense wasn't that great and their offense lost their two best skill guys. I think its a good team headed in the right direction but this year could take a step back. I wouldnt be surprised if they went 7-5.

    I kind of hope UCLA goes 7-5 to see Kim and all the doogs go "See told you so!" about Mora nevermind Sark won 7 games 3 years in a row and by then it will be four years in a row.

    You included Washington in that?
    UCLA is probably the easiest of the 4 conference road games. They have the weakest home field advantage and have had trouble blowing out people at home. Its also late in the season. If they already have 3-4 losses by then they won't have as much to play for.

    Its also late in the season. If they only have 0-2 losses by then they will have a lot to play for.

    I think Oregon State will probably be an easier game than UCLA. Oregon State lost Wheaton at WR, and he was their best player on offense. They also lost Poyer at CB and he was first team Pac 12.

    Hundley is the type of QB we always get destroyed by. He's mobile and accurate. When you combine that with a sub par pass rush and a road game (we will suck on the road again this year), I can't us winning that one.

    There is no need to look at the schedule and predict. Sark will win 7 games, doesn't matter who is on there.

    SU - L
    UO - L
    ASU - M
    Cal - W
    CU - W
    UCLA -L
    OSU - L
    WSU - M

    If we assume each maybe is a 50% chance (and wins and losses are of course guaranteed)
    then that is a 5-7 season there. Right back where we started. Remember progress is incremental and non-linear. Sometimes a little bit of regression is necessary... that is what makes 2013 so special. We are going backwards but it is still progress, or at least that is what I am hearing.

    Oregon State- Close loss

    We'll win 7 games once again.

    Basically how I see it as well. Maybe we win one of the conference road games and blow a game to Arizona or Boise State, but 7-5 seems accurate to me. The worst part is, when we beat San Jose State on the Poinsetta Bowl, some will call it progress.

    In that scenario I think should just be happy to be 4-2. Honestly, before the season did you expect to beat Stanford and Oregon? Didn't think so.

    Fans seem to forget we did go 0-12 just recently. Plus we have no 5th year seniors since Sark took over recruiting in late January. Again not his fault as the FREE PUB! he gained in that Rose Bowl did help us down the road.

    They also seem to forget we just hired the greatest recruiter in the history of recruiting in Tosh. This is Tosh's 2nd recruiting class so his players are still young. We need to wait another couple years until we have all of HIS guys in here.

    tl;dr: 2017 will be special.

    So I guess if we're lucky we may lose him to the Jaguars or Chiefs!
