Who Do We Want to Win - USC or Utah?


Pluses of USC winning:
-Get them as highly ranked as possible when Dawgs come to town
-Keeps their record better as I'd rather see them in the P12CG than Oregon if nothing else than they're soft
-Losses racking up for Utah could mean they roll into Husky Stadium less motivated in November in a week where UW could use less of a challenge
Pluses of Utah winning:
-Could easily see USC and Williams mail it in the rest of the way if they lose this game and/or be beat to shit which eases up that tough stretch
-Means Utah has a good chance of beating Oregon in SLC the week after
-Utah could be highly rated going into Husky Stadium in November and set up a big win
-Utah could be a nice opponent in the P12CG - UW just has to find a way to get a few TDs and it's over. Their DBs aren't as good as they have been in the past
My gut says we want USC to win and building up OUR game in November. Win that game. Have USC win every other game and then be highly ranked and beatable in the P12CG

Either way it will be interesting.

If USC makes the P12 champ game they will play it coming off a bye. Think I'd rather play Utah so rooting for Utah this week.WoolleyDoog said:BIG game in LA, but who do us DWAG FANS want to win?

USC so we have an 8-0 UW vs an 8-1 USC for another classic Big Ten showdownWoolleyDoog said:BIG game in LA, but who do us DWAG FANS want to win?

Utah
Now the USC got boat raced by Notre Dame, our resume looks the best if Utah and Oregon State win out except for losing to us -
I think you want usc for the 2 points you made above:
1. Sets up penix heisman-sealing potential game in the coli in prime time
2. If Utah drops 1-2 more, they may just tell rising to not risk coming back this year -
My ideal was USC winning every game except for UW then UW winning a rematch in the P12CG. So wasn't stoked on the Notre Dame punishing. Pure matchup wise I think they're a wash to me just would prefer to not play Oregon. There will be so much extra emotion in that game and they'll be a notch higher in motivation than I think USC/Utah to win that game. It will be another bloodbath.PostGameOrangeSlices said:Utah

Hoping for a good close game where both rosters get decimated.WoolleyDoog said:BIG game in LA, but who do us DWAG FANS want to win?

Utah. USC will just give up on the season and Caleb will shut it down
-
I wonder how many losses are necessary for Caleb to just shut it down and start prepping for the draft. Maybe just one more?
I'm for Utah. I have a feeling SC and their celebrity QB are going to dice up the yutes this time around though. -
for the first time in a very long time the Huskies control their own destiny.
-
Which team would you rather play in the CCG? I'd rather play Ute I think so that's who I want this weekend
-
I thought it was US vs US!,1!!
-
Its obvious that we are going to play Oregon for the title [seem obvious to me but i live on an island], Oregon is going to beat Utah so the rest really doesn't matter... I personally hope Utah wins against the Trojans because I like their program, they have played well without their QB which is amazing, and I want to see them go out this year with their heads high. And my guess is that Caleb is going to keep playing with everything he's got because I'm under the impression that at this point his high draft choice possibilities absolutely depend on it.
-
Gotta go with Utah to show solidarity with @89ute.
I really don’t care who we? play in the CCG. If we can’t run the table in this soon to be defunct conference, we don’t deserve anything beyond that.
Just win. -
Gotta root for the Big 10 over the big 12 here groz.

Metaphorical expression CDawg…
-
The only hypothetical I’m dealing with here is UW running the table.
Not scared to play Oregon again. -

Utah, fuck USC. For anyone afraid of Oregon watch the first quarter again. Had it not been for a corner opposite of Muhammad, horrible coverage after a string hit by Mishal, then a 15 yard penalty instead of just walking the fuck away… Oregon scores 8 points. Washington could have punched Oregon in the mouth. Washington was more physical in that game
-
Assuming UW wins out, the winner of SC and Oregon will likely be in the championship game. So Oregon.TheRoarOfTheCrowd said:Its obvious that we are going to play Oregon for the title [seem obvious to me but i live on an island], Oregon is going to beat Utah so the rest really doesn't matter...

Utah because you want SC to quit on their season and Utah or OSU sneaking into the championship is preferable to both SC and Oregon making it.
-
We? Want Ute to win.

1) injuries
2) refs -

Drinking these 2nite in honor of @89ute!! It worked for @GrundleStiltzkin 's Irish last week. Plus, I hear the Trojans are a little leaky on defense, so Utes inept offense should be able to score 2nite!! -
I like Our (?) chances against both these teams.
-
watched more non UW football today than I have in years and thought the same a bunch of times viewing some high ranked teams. I haven't felt this way in about 30 years, where I'm basically underwhelmed by all but 1 or 2 teams having watched UW every week.MelloDawg said:I like Our (?) chances against both these teams.

UW's ceiling on offense is so much higher than anyone nationally. Perhaps Michigan is capable of dominating like that, but it's UW's to lose if they get everyone healthy and get better.gmo said:
