    Lets look at the metrics from last year.

    UCLA was 8 in SRS and 8 in Sagarin.
    UW was 13 in SRS and 11 in Sagarin.

    I agree that UW probably beats UCLA at home. On a neutral field UCLA is probably a 5-6 point favorite.

    I also agree that we shouldn't be marking UCLA as a likely loss. I think UCLA and Stanford are 50-50 games and that Arizona and WSU also are potentially 50-50 games. These games are very hard to call. I could see us losing to any of those teams but I also think we could be favored in each game.

    RoadDawg, I was feeling the same way. I know they return the most starters of any team in conference but holy fuck they've lost a ton of talent.

    They are still my runaway pick to win the South though.

    UCLA returns the same number of starters as USC buttfuck. "Runaway" favorite just shows how ignant u is. Stick to gardening u pansy, leave the football discussion to those in-the-know.

    I have a hunch Stanford will fall back to earth this season.

    I have a hunch Stanford will fall back to earth this season.

    I know we've been saying that for a few years now but I believe it this year.

    Stanford: 5* offense, 7 defense, 2 specialists Only returning 5 offensive starters hurts plus they play at UW, at UCLA, at ASU, and at Oregon not to mention at Notre Dame as well. That's just brutal.

    AZ will be tough. UW's been mutilated in Tucson since '08 (plus there's altitude and heat!!!!). With an adult in charge, chances are better though.

    WSU seems like a should win, but who knows (insert throw out the records because it's a rivalry game line). I can't look up returning starters because it's May 10th......it seems weird...

    And for fuck sake, quit making shit up to sound football smart and trying to fit in. Talk about Micheal Sam, at least you'll have a little expertise in that football arena!
