Jon Wilner disagrees, sort of. He does think UW will beat Michigan though:
Washington
Projected record: 9-3/6-3
Wins: vs. Montana, at Michigan, vs. Arkansas State, vs. Cal, vs. UCLA, at Arizona, vs. Oregon, vs. Arizona State, vs. Washington State
Losses: at Colorado, at Stanford, at Oregon State
Comment: We expect the Huskies to win in Ann Arbor — 21-17 sounds about right — but gave serious thought to picking a loss the following week, against sneaky Arkansas State. UW’s sub-elite talent[/b] at the skill positions and its preferred style of play (run-heavy) are such that close games will be frequent and upset losses likely. The key to success is the pass rush; with the injury to Zion Tupuola-Fetui, we’re not convinced it will reach the level required on a sustained basis to fuel a division title.

Wilner isn't wrong about Arky State. Trap game. They also played a full season last year - the only team on the schedule that did

Exactly. UW hasn't lost at CU since... oh shit. The Beavis pick is a good one if you're trying to make a hawt take you can brag about later, as they're well corched and have a Petersenesque style of play that keeps games close. That being said, no Jefferson, no way. Wilner always picks a loss to Stanford, and fuck the guy for always being right--that was just a smart pick, and I'm with him. For me, most likely to least likely losses go:
1.) Stanford
2.) Michigan
3.) UCLA
4.) Oregon
5.) ASU
6.) Colorado
7.) Cal
Pick four...
Me if we lose to Arkansas State:

First and most obviously, Oregon’s quarterback situation crumbles[/i]
didnt really think oregon's qb situation was in a good spot to begin with but i suppose it can always get worse.

I don't know, reading back through the Dylan Morris thread, noted talent evaluator @GhostofMosster47 said Shuck was going to be a three-and-out first round draft pick. So they're probably doing just fine there.
