I knew that would be the reaction.Not changing my mind. Sark's job is to beat teams like Stanford and Oregon and win championships.Just thought it was interesting.
Clearly you have an agenda Auburndawg. We're keeping an eye on this site, even though it won't last long. https://twitter.com/FauxDawgman

Not saying I agree, but the respect the computers give the PAC-12 is interesting
Sagarin has the UW ranked 11th, and the Dawgs are ranked 8th in the ESPN Power Rankings. The computer models really like the PAC-12 this year. The teams we lost to are also ranked very high.If these rankings are right, and the Dawgs are really one of the best teams in America who just had the misfortune to lose to other elite teams, then we should crush WSU and win our bowl game comfortably, and the PAC-12 should dominate its bowl games. Interesting...
SRS, which is the best of these advanced metrics (according to DP206 who follows them religiously) has us at 19th. Win out and we'll be top 15 in every metric which tells us we are a 10-3 team. Throw in CFB Matrix with a -1 coach and thats how you get to 9-4. Depending on who doesn't leave early, this reasonably speaking should be a 10-2 team heading into Pullman next year. Easy schedule next year. Doesn't matter because Sark will win enough to keep his job. 9 this season, 10-4 next season then back down to 7 in 2015 and he won't be fired after that.
