2024 was always our hardest schedule of the 5 year rotation. Yeah we get Ohio State in the future but we definitely had more higher end programs this year along with the 2 furthest schools to travel to. (Technically Maryland is a longer flight but the flight plus drive involved for State College makes it longer)
Too hard to project much going forward these days. the portal sucks ask for spectrum people who love to project the future.
Five conference home games will be nice, though two of those are Oregon and Ohio State. Both are going to have major roster turnover but they're both going to just buy like 20 new starters and at least Oregon last week has shown that's not going to be a problem.
Michigan is interesting. They actually had a nice group of studs coming back this year but they're all gone and I'm not impressed with their staff who somehow didn't get just a decent portal QB this year.
Wisconsin will be intriguing to see how they close this year. It wouldn't surprise me if they get good under Fickle.
Maryland, UCLA, Illinois, Rutgers, and Purdue all have high chances to be ass.
No everything is a 5 year rotation now, over which we play each team twice or thrice, except Oregon. See my self quote earlier in the thread, that poast details all this shit out over the 5 years.

Good news that UW doesn't face Iowa. Dodged a bullet.
But Rutgers and WSU loom.
Rutgers comes here for a 11pm eastern match up
You can't win in this conference traveling two or more time zones. You just can't.
Rutgers is doomed

ETA: my old schedule ANALysis
It's our bad luck that Rutgers and Indiana are super shitty like normal
So, it's HARD.
Don't tello Fisch. He doesn't need another excuse.
I still hate the lack of a Maryland, Purdue or Michigan state (among others) on the '24 schedule.
@Mich - L
Ohio State - L
Oregon - L
Colorado State - W
Davis - W
UCLA - W
Purdue - W
and 5 Tossups
If playoff is the threshold, might as well fire him today.

Unless the playoffs expand to 24-32 teams
is that the schedule?
I thought 2025 was exact same conference schedule as this year….locations are just reversed
The only things that are certain in life: Death, taxes and UCLA will be greased up for UW
hey “loom” is my thing fucko!

That sucks, I want to play USC every year.
SHOCKED that this wasn’t pgos or big ern. Proud of you both for not being this big of doogs.
would love to see UW come out hot and greased up against a TUFF Colorado State skwad and win rather easily, say, 34-17?
11pm Pacific at the rate we've been scheduling
Fuck off, we don't win any games by more than 3 so take your trolling and get the fuck out
I have no faith that Fisch will be able to pull the necessary portal players to make this team competitive next year
