    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.

    There will be REAL Power Rankings posted next week at this time, when we actually know something about the 2013 teams.

    ASU should share 3rd with UCLA. UW at this time should sit no higher than 6th.

    Slightly improved? Very well could be. So what?

    This is not a good team with one of the worst coaches in the conference. To win 10 games, you'll have to be good. There is a Grand Coulee like gap between a 7 - 5 team that got ass raped several times and a BCS contender of 10 - 2.

    We'll be having the same conversation next year when the frat boy eakes out 7 or 8 wins. Husky Football is dead as long as Cream Puff is here.

    I've always had issues with abundance.

    This is a good example. What else could you ask for if we go 8 - 4? What a wonderful turn-around after 0 - 12 five years ago.
