Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

UW went down 1 on poll

Jood must have put his ducks higher again. I mean, they were a few 2 pt conversions from a win in the classiest place of them all.

    Flagged for giving a shit about polls before we?'ve even played a real game.

    For some reason I'm just not concerned about Arizona at all.

    This team has not proven it can hang with the best, but Arizona is far from the best. I don't think we'll have any trouble with them.

    As an undefeated team, we have not beat a mid-tier team on the road since '01.
    What makes a team mid-tier? I get there have been cultural issues that have perpetuated a dearth of mental fortitude, just want to understand where that statistic comes from.

    I hope the coaches are. I'm not convinced our passing game is going to be all that great against Pac 12 caliber DBs, and even though we finally broke 200 yards rushing, it was against Portland Fucking State.

    If we lose to Arizona I want Pete fired unless we win out.

    If we lose to Arizona I want Pete fired at midfield then set on fire on the tarmac.

    Well too be fair, you aren't concerned about any of them.

    Arizona doesn't have Pac 12 caliber DBs...or LBs...or DL...

    Why would you be - Tennessee doesn't play them.

    Eight was too high anyway (no sarcasm).

    It is obvious why we are ranked where we are - ESPN needs a story line to give the Pac-12 its token Gameday appearance this year.
    No its obvious because outside of the top 6 its a fucking dreckfest. There are no other teams that have performed even reasonably well for three straight games even against awful competition.

    Wisconsin beat Georgia State by 6 as a 36 point favorite. at home They are #11.

    Georgia beat Nicholls by 2 as a 53 point favorite at home. They needed Missouri to completely shit the bed for the entire fourth quarter to pull out a one point victory. They are #12.

    Florida State just got boatraced, Sark style, by Louisville. They are #13.

    Tennessee needed OT at home to beat App State as a 21.5 point favorite. They then let Ohio hang around until the 4th quarter as a 28 point favorite at home. They are #14.

    Are we done here or should I keep going?

    This fiction that we don't have any information about UW because we haven't played anyone is ridiculous. We return nearly everyone of note from a GOOD 2015 defense. Our DL actually averages 332 Lbs across the line and is ready to rumble. Our entire secondary is going to the NFL. And on offense we returned our starting QB,RB, 4 OL, and added back Three-Win John Ross.

    If that isn't a top-10 team then the staff completely failed and should be fired.
    This is the best argument against college football polls before October that I have ever read.

    This is complete bullshit. If we played in the SEC, we're not dropping down to #9 in the AP

    Pete should have left the starters in all game so that we could hang 60+ on psu and keep our meaningless ranking.
