It sucks playing in this dreck league. It sucks worse scheduling nobody in non-conference. Can we get out of any of these bullshit schedules and get somebody real on there in the next couple years?

Goes to show how the nine-game conference schedule gives us no help at all.
A&M scheduled UCLA and plays 3 absolute dreck teams, actually worse than our OOC schedule...but in reality UCLA is equivalent to whatever P12 team we play for that 9th game. If we had an 8 game P12 schedule we could have added a shit P5 team and we'd be getting jerked off right now.
Cohen needs to drop all FCS teams from future schedules and add a mid-tier G5 team. This could easily boost our OOC SOS 30 places. I'd prefer a marquee game each year, but until we start our series with Michigan, BYU will be good enough to at least avoid this conversation. -
The problem is the committee. There should be no fucking committee. Win your conference and you are in. Nuf said on that.

Disagree. Well, kinda.Swaye said:It sucks playing in this dreck league. It sucks worse scheduling nobody in non-conference. Can we get out of any of these bullshit schedules and get somebody real on there in the next couple years?
Committee was quoted as saying that a T m had four wins against teams with winning records (included S Carolina at 4-4). UW has two.
All four of UW's remaining games are against teams with winning records. Five if you count the P12 championship game.
The schedule has been pathetic (so far) but it gets better. As far as being hurt by a bad conference - it is a zero sum game ( Ws = Ls). It just depends who you miss.

bingo. extremely simplistic to look at UW's OOC and A&M's OOC and say A&M's is better because UCLA is on their schedule. It's basically the equivalent of the extra conference game UW plays.UWhuskytskeet said:Goes to show how the nine-game conference schedule gives us no help at all.

Plus UW isn't scheduling shit games in november

Highlights how fucking stupid it is to consider strength of schedule but to specifically prohibit considering margin of victory. Both pieces matter a great deal to any decent analysis. Using just one is probably worse than going strictly off the "eye test".EwaDawg said:Committee was quoted as saying that a T m had four wins against teams with winning records (included S Carolina at 4-4).
