#12: The Disrespect is Unreal

[whlinder]

UW’s schedule this year was as soft as the Depends that you wear

I don’t think it really matters which is ranked ahead of the other right now because everything tied to UW is dependent on Friday

There are reasonable arguments for Utah to be ranked ahead of UW … this idea that it’s incomprehensible is idiotic

UW’s fan base has gone incredibly soft

Within conference games, here are the differences in schedule:
Utah played USC
UW played Cal

Each played 2 cupcakes non-con.
Utah played at Florida, which went 6-6. Utah lost.
UW played home vs Michigan State, which went 5-7. UW on. Maybe if UW had lost we'd be ranked higher cause MSU would be 6-6?

Florida plays 8 conference games while MSU played 9. Those teams aren't that far apart in sucking.

USC as a win and opponent makes for a tougher schedule for Yoote. Yoote 2-2 vs good teams, UW 2-1.

And somehow UW is worse that Utah because a road loss to a bad conference team is worse than a road loss to a mediocre non conference team.

Is the difference between Charmin Soft and a TUFF schedule truly the difference between swapping a 4-8 team for an 11-1 one?

There is a lot of hair splitting to support Utah. When it is that close, tiebreaker should go to the team that has lost less.

"Underrated: No. 12 Washington[/b]
It seems like there's a knee-jerk reaction to assume that all Pac-12 teams are overrated and don't deserve national recognition, and Washington's ranking at No. 12 proves it. The Huskies have the nation's top passer in Michael Penix Jr., a top-10 receiver in Rome Odunze, a top-five scoring offense (40.8 points per game) and the Pac-12's second-best defense in terms of yards per play (5.52).

The loss to No. 17 UCLA is understandable, but the loss the following week to Arizona State is what's holding them back. But Utah -- which is one spot ahead of Washington -- has three losses, one of which was to a Florida team that went 6-6. Kansas State has three pretty solid losses (No. 18 Tulane, No. 3 TCU and No. 20 Texas), but they are still three losses. An argument could even be made that Washington's resume with wins over No. 15 Oregon State and No. 16 Oregon are more impressive than Clemson's signature win over No. 13 Florida State.
Washington deserves to be in the Top 10."

Maybe playing all our games after midnight east coast time isn't that great of a contract?

Utah and Kansas State will have 4 losses after championship weekend.

It will work itself out, but it's some kind of dumbass logic to have Utah leapfrog UW in rankings after they beat Colorado by a lower margin than us.

Meanwhile we went on the road against a feisty 7win rival and handled business. If the committee is using resume argument, who's got better the final week?

I would get the committees nuts out of your mouth, it's a political body nothing more.

 

[GreenRiverGatorz]

Don’t lose to a shitty Arizona St team and none of this is a conversation point

Control what you can control

Dumb fucking talking point. Tell Utah not to lose to a 6-6 Florida. Or Kansas State to beat someone better than a 7-5 Texas Tech. Who the fuck has Clemson beat?

College football is literally built on the concept of evaluating an entire body of work and subjectively ranking teams. And the committee just laid bare how unserious their process is. Might as well let a Facebook poll set the rankings.

Utah has a better resume at this point … things change

Stop being a low information snowflake Doog

Sounds like you can't defend your stupid point

Seriously?

You’ve lost your fastball from the winners win days

Losing at ASU is significantly worse than any of Utah’s losses

USC’s win against USC is better than UW’s best win

UW likely doesn’t win Game #1 in Florida

All metrics point to Utah being better (to date) than UW

UW will be in the Rose Bowl if USC wins

Getting your panties in a wad on this is small time BS

"UW likely doesn’t win Game #1 in Florida"

Is this one of the "metrics" you were talking about? Or is this just hypothetical bullshit you're trying to disguise as an argument? Might want to check the numbers again - my metrics tell me that Penix would have ass-blasted the gators in the swamp. Either way, Utah losing to a limpdick 6-6 Florida team isn't materially different than us losing to a limpdick 5-7 Michigan State. Except the latter didn't happen. The former did.

Utah lost their "marquee" OOC matchup, we won ours. In the only "common opponent" differentiator that mattered, we won at Auzten. They lost.

10-2 > 9-3. Fuck your "metrics".

Now do Kansas State.

They lost to Florida!!! Checkmate senior

The issue isn’t really that Utah is ahead of uw. It’s that they leapfrogged with a win over colorado of all teams while uw beat a wazzu squad on the road. That’s the issue.

Bingo. All of the shit we're squabbling about was true last week. When Utah was ranked below us.

The biggest takeaway here is that the CFP committee is completely nonsensical in their selection methodology. In fact there is no methodology.

The nation is outraged! This has legs! It will not stand!

[RaceBannon]

To reiterate I don't even care about the CFP

I care bout not playing this Friday when the metrics indicate UW should and it would actually draw viewers

And fuck thinking Amazon is going to bail this out. Kill the Pac 12 with fire

I see it as one more dagger in this shitty mismanaged conference.

No the issue with me is also that they're ahead of UW. Anyone that has watched them knows they're a 5 loss team disguised as a Tier I Pac team this year, and a huge part of that is preseason bullshit.

7 fucking points against a limp dick Oregon. Relies on a tight end basically for offense. Anyone who thinks they're the #2 team in the conference is FS and Lincoln Riley is going to smear their entrails all over Vegas while Whittingham gives his usual blank stare that he would always do when playing UW.

You’re right it will work itself out

People trying to compare Florida and Arizona St are fooling themselves though

Now do Kansas State.

Losing in the Swamp is way different than winning at home … if you assume they are equal to start with

Losing to ASU is a bad loss … is what it is

It’s amazing how Charmin soft Doogs are

The Committee is idiotic for doing that

This isn’t the first time they’ve done shady stuff to support whatever agenda they have … won’t be the last
