    How does Louisville go 12-1 and threaten an undefeated UW? Wouldn't they have to win the ACC meaning Clemson would be 10-2? Louisville would go 11-1 and in no way would threaten a 13-0 UW team.

    Remember when Notre Dame went to the BCS National Championship game a couple years ago?

    Same with UW. Even if they look like frauds on paper, they remain undefeated then they go.

    Jesus Christ, no. The question is whether they would overtake a one loss Ohio State or Michigan.

    DeLarry disagrees.
    So he was pretty drunk?

    I say a lot of bullshit when I'm drunk, too.

    Louisville and Clemson are in the same division, and they've already played. So if both win out, Clemson is unbeaten and wins the conference and Louisville finishes with one loss.

    I do remember that new years day in the 1980s. Washington won the Orange, USC won the Rose, UCLA won the Fiesta. All on the same day!


    Race Bannon, True?

    Sounds like DeLarry needs to spend more time in the film room before ripping it like that.

    Correct, but only with 11 wins, not 12.

    DeLarry's thought was that when you combine east coast bias and Louisville's schedule being perceived as tougher than UW's then it could spell trouble for us.

    Not at all comparable. Motte dame played one of the toughest schedules in CFB that hear. The reason they were seen as frauds was the way they were winning was flukey and at times reliant on their opponents completely shitting the bed. UW on the other hand looks impressive vs a softer schedule

    They were also beneficiaries of a number of bad calls by the refs that went in their favor
