It's year one, but it's time to overreact. As previously discussed, the three year rule is now the two year rule and we should have a pretty good idea of what we have with Deboer this time next season.
UW being UW and struggling with the NIL/recruit game, we need to win to make up ground and the final stretch is a huge opportunity. The defense is such a liability that you really can't pencil in a win anywhere, but a Rick like NW championship would do wonders for the perception of the program as we head into uncertainty with conference realignment.
I don't see how we win in Eugene, would love to be shocked, but even a Doog has his limits. The margin between 3-1 and 2-2 is razor thin, but has huge implications. 2-2 would be a bad sign imo.
This November could mean nothing, or it could mean everything, either way it will be interesting.

3-1: 9 wins! Deboer on pace but needs to level upI think 3-1 is a narrow favorite over 2-2
What’s worrisome to me is that looking at next year’s schedule 6 or 7 wins may be a very reasonable outcome

2-2: Nothing Special, Deboer needs more timeA good team has no excuse for not going 8-4 with the '23 schedule

3-1: 9 wins! Deboer on pace but needs to level upLose to Oregon unless there’s a festivus miracle of epic proportions.
Home field should be enough vs Beavs.
Colorado is fucking horrible and unlike last year, this UW team still has a pulse.
At WSU will be TUFF and their defense will be one of the best we play but their offense is atrocious. -
2-2: Nothing Special, Deboer needs more timeWin…loss… win….Loss
Loss to Penn State in Bowl game as
Martin, Rome and Kirkland sit out.
We’ve seen this movie before

2-2: Nothing Special, Deboer needs more timeThey should be able to beat every team but Oregon. UW being UW they'll lose one they shouldn't and be blown out by Oregon.

2-2: Nothing Special, Deboer needs more time2-2 (5-4 in conference) is the bare minimum I think we need to see from DeBoer at this point. It would be better than 50% of Pete's seasons at UW and leave me feeling that, at least, we're still trending up. 3-1 (6-3) would have be Dooging that DeBoer probably the "the guy" and we need to keep him.

3-1: 9 wins! Deboer on pace but needs to level upI said I'll hate Deboer if we don't control our destiny heading into November, and I still stand by that because the ASU loss was terrible.
The conference was shockingly top heavy this year and the margin for error was non-existent (unlike Browning's senior year)
However, Beat a ranked Oregon State and head into a BONEM game to stay in contention through the end of November is a decent consolation.
A loss to Oregon state robbing me of the final Doog opportunity of year is a fireable offence.
