    One of my main beefs and question I haven't seen asked by media and Twitter chuds who are trumpeting the Washington pretender, Oregon King Kong narrative is if I UW isn't that good could that just mean Oregon isn't that good either? It can't be written off as like a fluke or lucky game given UW won in Eugene at the end of 2022 with very similar teams. It's also possible the Pac-12 isn't as great as everyone is building up given things like a complete lack of impressive non-conference wins, Oregon almost losing to Texas Tech, Notre Dame plundering USC, bell cow Arizona losing to 4-5 Mississippi State.

    My worries the rest of the regular season is Jonathan Smith isn't afraid to just run 95% of the time instead of bailing UW's soft run D out by getting greedy with passing and Utah just nothing to lose jailbreak blitzing up the middle because they have nothing to lose ala ASU and running the read option until UW can stop it.

    Utah believes they can still win the conference this year

    I’m starting to believe the stealing signs conspiracy theory and that was the reason ASU made UW look like the Seahawks against Baltimore last Sunday.

    What’s the conspiracy?
