    An easier schedule does not a better team make.

    Gentlemen, you are not being realistic. Do any of you seriously think this team won't be at least slightly improved this year? The schedule is a little easier. We were very close to 9 wins last year. It wouldn't take much improvement for this team to get to 9 or 10 wins.

    The conference road schedule is actually much harder. All four of our road games will be against bowl teams. There are no Cal, Colorado, or WSU's this year. There's a reason why we are underdogs in five games according to Vegas.

    Unless something drastically changes, we will lose all four of those road games. Add Oregon and there is a fifth loss. That's a 7-5 season assuming we dont blow another game (we normally do). Being slightly improved likely won't matter. This is a 6-8 win team. You are the one not being realistic.

    Really? Win 6 of 7 at home, and 2 of 5 on the road, and win the bowl game. That's 9. That doesn't seem crazy to me.

    For the record I think we will do better than that, and that would be the bare minimum, I would expect in year 5.

    Look if we had a REAL head coach I'd expect 9-10 wins.

    Since we have Sark I expect 7-8 wins. I actually think that fucker will get 8 wins so he can get an extension and we'll be stuck with him forever.

    Yes, I predicted an 8-4 regular season. To do any better than that the coaching and player development needs to improve. Why would anyone expect that when, except for a few minor exceptions, it hasn't happened?

    Thanks for proving how shitty and worthless preseason rankings are.

    UW was also very close to 5 wins last year. It wouldn't take much deprovement for this to get to 4-8.
