    3-1: 9 wins! Deboer on pace but needs to level up
    This is me dooging. 2-2 seems realistic but I want 9 pretty bad.

    Never forget. As someone is always quick to point out, 9 is the new 7. I still feel the ASU loss in my guts. A thrumming kick to the nuts that game was.

    2-2: Nothing Special, Deboer needs more time
    2-2 isn't acceptable but I can't confidently predict UW beating anyone other than Colorado.

    Yes he needs more time. He's going to get plenty and he better use it to figure out something on defense.

    I almost put 2-2 but the Doog in me thinks that the bye week will have the team tan, ready, and rested at full health and Eddie O. will play about 15-20 snaps vs. Oregon State. Plus I imagine the D coaches will have changed some of the coverages so that, even if Perryman, Powell, and Turner, and Hampton are all 100% (each has battled injuries this season), they won't be asked to play man-to-man quite as much while reinforcing press technique. Or if Perryman is playing tight man D, he has help over the top more often than not.

    2-2 Nothing special and this is the High WATER mark as next year descends into a lesser team with lesser talent ~ yah these guys can coach, but you need better talent to win. Just my opinion of course.

    Not sure what the poll was asking, but I think 2-2 is the most realistic finish, which sucks balls.

    Hedging my bets with 3-1 here and 8-4 in the original preseason selection.

    That way, whatever happens, I can bump the thread that I was right in and say "I was right"

    1-3: House Money! You don't understand the damage Jimmy Lake did, Deboer is Sark
    I think it'll be obvious right away this week if anything changed against BYE. Until I see it I'll continue to think UW is mediocre and heavily flawed.

    ...But at least 7-5 could set up a lovely Jimmy Kimmel Los Angeles Bowl Dec 17th against, probably, Boise State...who I think we? open '23 with, too.

    Someone fucking kill me if I'm right.
    Cheers

    A good team has no excuse for not going 8-4 with the '23 schedule

    At Sparty, SC

    Home w/ Utah, Oregon, WSU

    Can't punt any of other 7 and need one of these 5.
