    We're doing quite well in the various stats are for losers metrics guyms rankings, which would indicate we have a chance to be competitive and not get blown out Sark 2.0 style in any of the remaining games.

    The tail of the season, however, is 109th nationally in penalty yards per game.

    1-2 against Indiana, Penn State, Oregon. All on road, all good teams.

    2-1 against Iowa, USC, UCLA.

    We could do 3-0 across those games but we found a way to lose to Rutgers and Cuog.

    9-3 should get us in playoff conversation quite honestly. A 3 loss team is getting in.

    9-3

    We dominated the 2 games we lost. Bad coaching which I think Jedd has figured out.

    No team really scares me. I predict a close loss at Penn State and a win against everyone else, closing out with 4th in a row in Eugene.

    Just miss the playoffs. They give Alamo to 11-1 Wazzu and we go to Holiday against SMU.

    I'm super pessimistic so I'm still keeping my foot on the breaks for now. Beating this Michigan team by double digits with our kicker making two field goals you expect him to make and them not having anything like that gives me a lot of hope though. We shouldn't wet our pants about the remaining schedule we have the way some have but it's not easy.

    Iowa - at home and not the week after Michigan I'd comfortably say double digit Doog win. Don't like the variables going into this game though.

    Indiana - could be a great chance to get a fake big win with Indiana. They look tough and can actually pass. Them coming off Nebraska and UW off a bye could be clutch though.

    USC - Like Indiana, they will be interesting as they can throw the ball and UW hasn't played anyone who can yet. Their run defense still looks soft though so this could be the game where Coleman goes off.

    Penn State - I don't think they're world beaters. Feel like they're better than Michigan this year though and this is a game I can't pick them to win.

    UCLA - Regardless of grease history absolutely no excuse to not unload on them here.

    Oregon - Similar to Penn State. I think Fisch and co will have nothing to lose here though and a lot of time to plan with UCLA then a bye week. I think we'll know a lot more about Oregon after Saturday.

    I have no fear of UCLA grease at home anymore. Rose Bowl is different.

    8-4

    In the other pole I had UW at 8-5 - thinking 7-5 and a bowel movement win. Now 8-4 with a bowel loss

    Still 8-5 which sucks - never should have lost to the Cuogs and Buttgers

    Pissed away two games that a good team wins rather easily. No reason not to expect similar performance against the remaining schedules which is better than the one they've played so far. 6 wins = house money though.

    I like the variables going into Iowa. Sieze the momentum. No short week cross country travel here. Play greased up and recover during the bye week. Come out on fire and bury (they can't overcome 10-14 pts) them before they can say "our D is special". They have to second guess their D after getting 85 hymens broken by tOSU after biting the pillow and saying thank you sir can I have another.

    Yeah, our front 9 was a sloppy as a brother of @chuck driver. Any chance we had of going something like 9-3 was dependent on a 6-0 start.

    Our back 9 is way harder and than the front.
