We? were the best team in 2022 and everyone knows it.
Conference champions lose to shitty teams in the Pac 12. It's not a feature, not a bug, but an irreparable design issue that means you need to deprecate the motherfucker entirely. But it does happen.
Was talking about this yesterday with Joey if the NCAA bans Michigan midseason the way it looks like they should have a lot of scenarios could have played out. Most likely what I think happens is Ohio State actually beats Michigan if Michigan has nothing to play for. Ohio State is undefeated and #1 seed and plays Alabama in the Rose Bowl and UW is the same with Texas in the Sugar Bowl. Like Bama/Michigan, Bama/Ohio State probably a coin toss and UW gets winner in Houston.
I agree with this. I’ll add that Deboer would still have been finger fucking Bama in Houston and we’d still have played like shit and lost, so anyone trying to claim the natty is a fucking doogtard.
Seemed like college football desperately wanted Harbaugh out. I can definitely be convinced but felt like me Ohio State and shit was amping up some stuff that wasn't as nefarious as it's been made out to be.
How many coaches trend down for years and then magically, suddenly are locks to the CFP for 3 years in a row like him? Could be argued that he finally got the right mix of players/transfers but it still feels unprecedented in the modern era. Ed O accurately showed what he was with and without Burrow.
I think Harbaugh benefitted from the covid year in a way UW would have had Petersen not quit. He had a team with a lot of guys who were good but not great NFL prospects and got extra years out of them and more chances to coach them up.
im old enough to remember the non-stop media slobbering when harbs showed back up in college. the khaki covered bus, espn jizzing all over itself to talk about him taking his team to europe.
die a hero or live long enough to become the villain or something.
I like the scenario of Michigan winning all the same games but being BAN HAMMERED from post season play. Michigan would still have wanted to win all their games and probably just claim a natty.
That makes a 12-1 tOSU team the B1G champion with a loss to 12-0 Michigan. Now pick 3 of these 4 to fill out the playoff: 13-0 FSU with no QB, 12-1 tOSU which only won its conference cause Mich was banned, 12-1 Bama, 12-1 Texas.
Have to assume 12-1 tOSU is not viewed significantly different enough than 11-1 tOSU actually was, and therefore is ranked behind FSU. Win the Rose vs FSU, play the Texas/Bama winner in Houston. Hmmm.

forfeit
asterisk natty is best natty
Unfortunately I witnessed our? beloved Huskies get run over and the media completely forgot about it when it actually mattered.
Their current coach deleting 50+ texts without explanation might be the back breaker.
No one won the Natty last year.
I fully declared us 2022 Pac12 champions and gave us a CFP appearance thanks to ASU forfeiting their win.
I am less inclined to declare us 2024 champs. Although if Mich is out and FSU is in, I feel good about our outcomes.
Edit: I have not figured where tOSU ends up in this scenario. I guess they probably lose to Bama in the Rose and then we play Bama for Natty?

Utah and Oregon can kiss the ring.

Harblaugh panics and takes a job with an inept NFL franchise before the ____ hits the fan. What a surprise. 😂

lol what? UW had a historically old/experienced team last year.
I’ll hang the banner, not because I care, but because I know it’ll piss everyone off
college football is dead, might as well make a mockery of its corpse
Peterlips would have taken them all the way to a Rose Bowl loss to Penn State.
I liked what I saw out of Fisch in that Alamo Bowl against a 10-2 team.
Peteylips couldn't get it done unless it was the Vegas or Dallas bowl
Did you get free wifi time at summer camp?
...and?
Every college football team in America had this opportunity after 2020.
The two best developmental staffs made it to the championship.
btw this would be our second most bullshit natty after 1960
htfb
