    If everyone was losing their dooging minds, this is what it would look like...

    The only weakness on this UW team is an untested OL against an elite DL.

    I'm not quite ready to agree yet that UW can hang with Bammer and tOSU. But I will say this: UW's OL practices against an elite DL every single day.

    Losing at home to Benny Beaver is always special

    Bama. Lots of Bama

    If UW can keep the 4 man pressure and keep Hurts in the pocket he kind of sucks passing. Bama does not have the thumper back. What they do is use Hurts as a runner to make up for both shortcomings.

    Their defense is really good. Reminds me of Washington. Bama has overcome a lot of their spread shortcomings over the years. They get pressure from 4 and play great coverage and score a lot on defense. And special teams.

    Washington is an easy 14-17 point dog in this one, but if they don't turn the ball over and keep Hurts contained in the pocket they can stay in the game and anything can happen.

    Clemson is good and bored with another long season before they get a shot at redemption. They would not be as easy to beat in the playoffs as they appear right now. But very beatable all the same by our defense. The fact that UW doesn't have to gamble or bring 7 to get pressure puts them among the elite in the nation.

    Same story going against Ohio State. Barrett can throw but not on his back. He beat Wisconsin with his legs.. Ohio State has a Bama level defense. Tough to score on either of them. You can't make mistakes and you have to get 7 when you are down there in scoring land.

    Fuck Michigan and their running up the score on shitty teams from New Jersey. Win something that counts Harbaugh. Not even scouting them since Ohio State will pound their ass.

    You may think UW doesn't belong in the discussion but they do. This is a GOOD Washington team

    This essentially guarantees a WASHINGTON loss against OSU.

    Clemson's DL isn't as good this year. Last season, it was big, athletic, deep, and mean.

    I would have no problem playing Michigan in the playoff or Rose Bowl.

    Besides Alabama, tOSU also scares the hell out of me. Gotta win the rest of the games but Urban Meyer takes down a lot of coaches come postseason time (he's 10-2 in bowls).
