Wilner: Best Analyst of Pac 12 Football
I did not move No. 7 Washington into the vacancy, however. Instead, Colorado jumped four positions, and over the Huskies, into the six hole after its victory over Washington State.http://www.mercurynews.com/2016/11/20/my-ap-top-25-football-ballot-no-changes-to-the-top-five-louisville-falls-colorado-jumps-washington-utah-and-west-virginia-vanish-and-more/
The Buffaloes have a better resume than UW at the moment:
They have played a tougher overall schedule.
Both teams have lost to USC, but CU’s defeat came in a close game in the Coliseum, wheras UW was beaten soundly at home by the Trojans.
CU’s other loss came in Ann Arbor, in a close game for three quarters, while Washington has no equivalent non-conference game: The Huskies played a string of cupcakes.
That contributes to Colorado’s significant edge in SOS.
Both teams have beaten Stanford. The Huskies did it handily at home; the Buffs in a close game on the road — slight edge to UW there.
BUT:
Based on Saturday’s results, Colorado’s best league win, over Washington State, trumps Washington’s best league win, at Utah.
The Utes’ home loss to Oregon de-values Washington’s win in Salt Lake City, which could have significant playoff consequences for the Huskies two weeks from now.
(Add the fact that Utah has also lost to Cal, and the Utes no longer qualify as a quality win for anyone.)

Okay, I haven't given a shit about Wilner until now, but he needs to DIAFF for this dumb shit.
When will these fucks learn comparing scores is retarded? Teams are not the same week to week. See USC. Is it possible that USC has gotten better Wilner since beating Colorado?
Using his logic, I could say we are 33 points better than Colorado because we beat Stanford by 38 while Colorado only won by 5. We beat Oregon by 49, they beat Oregon by 3. Therefore, we are way better than Colorado.
He should just come out and say that he is either trolling Husky fans or just plain dumb. -
Amen, he is using fucking transitive property championship bull shit. Fuck him.RoadDawg55 said:Okay, I haven't given a shit about Wilner until now, but he needs to DIAFF for this dumb shit.

So what's go to happen to Wilner if UW beats WSU and Utah beats Colorado? Will his head explode?
People who use transtive property to compare football teams needs to die in a fucking fire. -
Or, at a minimum, UW drops the cuogs and curb stomps the Buffs?CuntWaffle said:So what's go to happen to Wilner whenUW beats WSU and Utah beats Colorado? Will his head explode?

He fades away until his next line of uninformed bullshit next season. -
If UW and Colorado both win we can see who is better on the field (novel concept) ...
I don't give 2 shits about Wilner's opinion through using BS logic ... just look at the teams and compare based on performance ...
It's why the CFP needs to go to 8 and move subjective judgement further down the line ... win your conference and you are in period no questions asked ... allow wild card entries to cover non P5 schools and deserving at larges ... reality is if you have 3+ losses you can't blame anybody but yourself ... 2 losses and you can't say that you are unquestionably deserving -
Just stop talking about Wilner. He moved Texas from unranked all the fucking way up to #2 when Texas beat Notre Dame at a neutral site after week 1. He watches no games outside Cal/Stanford so he has no idea what he's talking about. Doesn't consider injuries, dominance, nothing. He is un in formed dot com.

I agree with this, but the maddening aspect of college football is also why it's fun.Tequilla said:If UW and Colorado both win we can see who is better on the field (novel concept) ...

8 would be better, but every game having extreme importance makes college football. Hindering that even a little bit could diminish the sport. -
Washington State at home is not a quality win.
