Things you already knew about UW's 2024 schedule and performance
Comments

Iowa, USC, Michigan, UCLA are all relatively equal. UW would have a better than even chance to beat them all at home. Rutgers and WSU are comfortable wins at Husky Stadium and NW is a game where they would have a 70/30 shot to win on the road. I think Indiana is a coin flip at UW. PSU and Oregon are the only teams UW had no shot against anywhere. You can put all these teams in a home/road blender and UW is anywhere from 8-4 to 4-8, hence 6-6 seems about right.
-
What I see is a team that had no offensive direction and horrible special teams, who got embarrassed by every decent team and dropped two games to bad teams. It almost feels like some want to give a 6-6 team credit for 8-4 because we should've won those ones. Well, we didn't.
Fisch isn't fired if I'm king for a day, but I wouldn't hate the queen if she dumped him while I was distracted watching other teams play meaningful games.
-
Fisch had said they held back NIL money (I think someone said $3 million?) so if they weren't at least somewhat punting on 2024, they would have spent half of that (if not all) on a better OL and DL. The back-up from Ohio State probably didn't have much in terms of NIL offers and the same for Logan S.

You really couldn’t expect UW to have a good season. You just couldn’t.

Ern I love ya, but this is such a limp-wristed post

Thazthajoke. Wrists get tired.

I'm hearing Washington Oregon would have been a competitive game in Seattle.

More difficult in the sense of travel and our level comparable to the teams that we played on the road … of the 5 games in conference only Rutgers was a team that had comparable talent … everybody else was going to be a difficult win at best.
Last year the difficulty was that the overall quality of the opposition (this is a down year in CFB across the board for a number of reasons) was better but from a road standpoint the toughest games were at Arizona (in hindsight - we benefited from catching them early), USC (because our defense sucked), and Oregon St (weather).
-
Anybody that starts their narratives without acknowledging how bad the OL/DL were then there's really no point in going any further in the discussion.
These were Tyrone to early Sark era caliber teams at the LOS
This is what it looks like when you have massive misses in recruiting and a roster gutted by graduation and transfers
You're not winning in this conference consistently if you are a bottom end LOS team
-
at least UW had plenty of excuses for throwing away the season
-
and our OOC schedule was soft AF
-
here is the adjusted SOS from 4 days ago per college football news (whatever they are)
Toop 15 and threw in UW and the Duckies
-
I'd make it a competitive game with your mom in Seattle, dtd.
-
The teams playing today looked pretty tuff. The top end of the coaching is in decline plus the depth of teams like Bama are down like someone mentioned earlier. The entire product is going to suffer with NIL and f’ing kids transferring 3 times in three years.
@tequilla yah we look light years away from Penn St, Oregon, Georgia and Texas at the line of scrimmage -
Now do it when Oregon is 6-6 and UW is 13-0.
-
Are we really trying to say this team should have been 8-4 when the OL couldn't BLOCK air and the DL couldn't TACKLE air?
-
Many moons ago I wrote for College Football News.
How can UW have #24 schedule when it was an INSANE schedule?

I don't get paid to be objective
Like Seaver I bring the clicks
