Would you be happy with a 13-1 record with a NY6 win?

No. What part of BONEM do you not understand? A loss on Friday is failure.

If this was a matchup against any other P12 team, except maybe the coogs, then sure NY6 and 13-1 is phenomenal. But its not.

This is the final game in Pac-12 history. Playoff on the line. Heisman on the line. A chance to shut up all the Duck suckers that expect UW to get blown out. This is the first time in Pac-conference history that we've had a game like this, on par nationally, with an OSU/Michigan or an Alabama/Georgia and somehow we find ourselves on the wrong side of a double-digit point spread against the program that should be our little brother despite beating them last month and being undefeated?

This is THE GAME that people will remember the Pac-12 by and define the two programs as we step into the next phase of college football. We can be the fucking champs, or we can be the punchline. There is no inbetween. There is no consolation prize.

Win or suck.

Honestly?

No.

I know I’m being unreasonable and extremely Doog-ish, but it would give the whole season a “it is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all” quality about it.

Losing to the Ducks at this point will be like an entire Duckade of Dominance ® of shoved into one game. They’ll be insufferable.

And at that point any bowl game will feel like a consolation prize.

I know, I’m a bad fan.
