    Fine with me. I think we are probably about the 12th-20th best team in the cuntry, but it doesn't fucking matter so why should I care?

    Top 10 match up at Husky Stadium with a team that we've played close for 5 years in a row (save for last year when we didn't have our QB)? Fuck yeah. It'll be an interesting game.

    And, #thescript was that we lose at Zona. We are now off #thescript.

    Also - if we lose to Stanford and Oregon and win the rest of our games, I'll be happy as shit.

    But, we match up well against Stanford... so we shall see.

    The #9 spot is cursed, so I'm okay with dropping.

    Fine with 10. Should be lower so anyone who isn't happy with it needs to DIAFF.

    I think they're a top 25 team at this point, but #10 is way too high. Just my 0.02, but at the very least Tennessee, Florida State, Ole Miss and Michigan State should be ranked ahead of them, and probably Utah, Arkansas and Florida as well.

    I AGREE BUT WHO GIVES A SHIT!?!?

    Fucking retarded arguing our team should be lower. Fucking loser talk.

    Who fucking cares?

    It's better for us to be ranked higher so fuck you. Fuck this fucking bullshit. You think it's better for us to be recruiting this week as a top 10 team or as #19?

    Fuck this stupid shit.

    They're going to mean something to four teams, and yes, I know those rankings are from the selection committee, but don't kid yourself, AP rankings at that time of the season carry some weight.

    DJ had a career winning percentage at UW of .712. To hit that number we'd have to be somewhere around 8-4 to 9-3.

    In 77, yr three under DJ, we lost to Miss St who ended up 5-6 before forfeiting all games, beat San Jose St who ended 4-7, lost to Syracuse who ended 6-5 and lost to Minnesota who ended 7-5, to start the season 1-3.

    Of course we went on to upset heavily favored Michigan in the RB.

    Perspective.

    Fine, but we aren't going to be one of those 4 teams. And not being one of those 4 teams doesn't mean shit to me. I wanted to see 10 wins this year. That is real progress. We'll lose a couple, but if we hit 10 wins we are in new territory.

    I just don't really care where we are ranked or whatever. It's good for recruiting for us to be ranked high, so fuck it. I hope we finish the season 10-2 and ranked 11th or something. Other than that, who gives a fuck?

    Losses to Stanford, @ Oregon, @ Utah and ASU wouldn't be shocking at this point.

    Reasonable and respectable expectations, can't argue with that.

    I think we end up 6-3 and next season will be special. We might even beat Oregon.

    We beat Oregon rather easily. Prukop is not that great of a runner. Dawkins mobility is what killed us...we would have destroyed Arizona if they started Anu. It honestly seemed like we didnt prep that much for a mobile QB

    I'd put Wake Forest above UW at this point

    I'm thinking more like @Dennis_DeYoung, 7-2 should be the expectation, but I wouldn't be shocked with a 5-4 season.

    Regardless of the circumstances and match ups, that was a beat up Arizona team that had trouble with Grambling, and somehow took UW to OT. I don't get glossing over this narrow victory against a beat up mediocre team anymore than I get glossing over a shit third quarter against FCS PSU that foretold the lack of mental preparation and attention the Huskies started with in Tucson. Maybe they got the message. Maybe they didn't. We'll see, starting Friday.

    Had we not won a natty with Don James, people would remember him for all the 3-4 loss seasons he had from time to time.

    He gets worse every year

    Disagree. He finished 1st or 2nd in conference more often than not. Winning the natty elevated him, for sure, especially with a team that was one of the best in CFB history, but his legacy was already cemented.

    All before Arizona was serious about football and there were 10-12 teams in the conference.

    Mariner fans relive the 90s less than husky fans talk about the Don James days. It's time to move on.
