    Where does 1 loss Eastern fit in?

    Some of us have a strong little brother syndrome to USC. Is this what it's like when washington is good? Always thinking they will lose to usc? I have no frame of reference.

    I don't think a loss to USC is likely, but objectively a close loss to USC would be the least damaging to UW's playoff hopes.

    It's the only game left on the schedule that we? could hypothetically avenge as well. SC getting to the title game is unlikely but possible.

    Pretty sure the Committee doesn't want to be seen as favoring
    one conference over another. Also they are on record as giving great
    weight to conference champs. Could easily see Washington and
    OSU as one loss conference champs being picked over one loss
    A and M without a title. I think there's room for a USC fuckup.

    Disagree. If UW gets one loss it's not just a hypothetical 1 loss TAMU UW has to beat out, it's a hypothetical 1 loss Michigan and hypothetical 1 loss Louisville and whoever else.

    If UW drops a game we're settling for the Rose Bowel.
    I'm just glad to be at a point where we are in fucking November and talking earnestly about 'settling for the rose bowl'. After everything husky fans who care about winning have been through over the last 15 years, it's just a great conversation to be able to have.

    Now stop and think for a second....if UW loses to WSU, we not only miss the playoffs, but the Rose Bowl as well. 11-1, going to the fuck off bowel. Jesus. I'll kill everything.

    I'll be surprised if the kewgs go undefeated the rest of the way. Their great and historic come-from-behind victory against mighty oregon state showed how vulnerable they are.
    But tell me you can't see this happening. We have suffered through 15 years of shit, and when we finally put a great season together WSU not only knocks us out of the CFP, but the Rose Bowl as well, with a worse record, and a loss to EWU. I will literally kill everything. You are in Virginia, so just turn on the local news after the game, and wait until they start showing the police chopper footage from Winchester.

    I clearly seperated the squire and mexi. Now puppys beautiful vintage sunburst stratocaster, made in the USofA, is in a class by itself. Generally anyone who uses fenderbender is either a shitty driver or plays a bright red mexi. Oh, the vintage tele sitting next to it is something to behold too, which of course sits next to the vintage 65 SG, and several feet away the martin d28 .

    The martin in a leg spreader. A few strums and my gums are buried in beaver. Big black beaver. I try and sing after she squirts but my mouth dries up like desert dirt, my lips the cracks. A quick sip of bookers whisky wets the whistle and im back in action,, resoiling her already crusty panties. The Martin, like a grand piano, always gets the job done. Your mexi strat might make you 2 bits at the public market, but hey, its a start.

    Wrong...my mexi was black, not red.

    Fender doesn't do much worthwhile (my opinion) on acoustics, so I never paid much attention. I'm almost exclusively an acoustic player, mainly breaking in a J-45 these days.

    I also have a Martin HD-28 that's been beat straight to hell but I love it. And beat to hell by me! I don't believe in buying old instruments. Buy them new and MAKE them old.

    And +1 to Grundle on being competent with these things. Women love it. Literally the easiest thing in the world.

    I actually started playing because my freshman year of college I was visiting a friend at Clemson and pulled a guitar off the wall. I didn't know how to play but just wanted to fool around with it. Cute girl immediately sat down in front of me and wanted to hear a song. She said 'here's your chance to impress a girl!'... And I didn't know how to play.

    That was humiliating, but I bought a guitar and started practicing immediately. IMMEDIATELY. It was the most internally motivated learning experience of my entire life. It's gotten me laid many times since.

    Never saw that girl again. In life as in music, timing is everything.

    To be honest, I haven't touched a fender guitar in over 10 years. IMO, Gibson makes a higher quality guitar, both electric and acoustic.

    All I play now is my Martin acoustic and supply the lead vocals in my Alanis Morissette cover band.

    Gibson factory's here in Memphis. Pretty cool place to take your two dads to tour when they visit from out of town.

    CEO's a douche though.

    What about those of us who only care that no one's injured and both teams have fun out there just letting it rip?

    That would be a huge kick in the nuts, no doubt. It's playoff/Rose Bowl or bust at this point. But 11-1 with a loss to the kewgs we'd still go to the Cotton, Fiesta or Peach. Which isn't boner-inducing but it sure as hell beats the Zaxbys Chicken Bowl.

    The Fiesta and Peach are the playoff bowls and the Cotton is stuck with a group of five midget (currently Western Michigan).

    There is no guarantee whatsoever that the 11-1 Huskies make the New Year's Six.

    My friend and I were talking about this same scenario. If WSU wins out and we lose the apple cup, then yeah. They go to conference title game and we are in the Holiday Bowl. At 11-1. UW has zero wiggle room in this.
