Still no talk about uw 2022
7-5, losses.
MSU, too tough
UCLA, CK breakout year.
Cal, because it's Cal.
UO, beat Oregon cause nothing else matters
WSU, this is the year they win at home
8-4 if things bounce the Dogs way.
WSU, because it's in Pullman and possibly a snow game.
WSU lost their best player and made a lousy hire at coach. We? will lose at ASU (because desert - they had almost as long a streak against us as the Ducks), UCLA, and UO. They will lose one of the home games between OSU, Arizona or Stanford, but also win a game as an underdog. 7-5 seems like, and 8 wins is the ceiling unless Penix is in the running for the Heisman.
UW has the second easiest if not the easiest schedule in the conference. It's set up for them to have 9 wins and be in contention, along with UCLA.
USC and Oregon could contend as well but SC has major questions on defense and Oregon has major questions at quarterback and their coaching staff.
Utah is the safe pick but is the least talented out of the 5 and had some bad losses last year that indicates that aren't head and shoulders above anyone in the conference.
A 7 win UW team means they're losing to a lot of teams they shouldn't be. Going off of reputable models like Beta Rank UW is favored in 11/12 games so it's hard to see them doing that poorly.
You are underdogs to state, Oregon, and ucla on every book for the game of the year lines. But favored in 11/12, sure.
Not in many advanced models.
But I'm not going to get into Math and probability on a board where most of the knuckle dragging denizens here suck customer dick for a living.
You think Vegas doesn’t use those same advanced models?
I get what you’re saying but I’ve yet to see a legit model where UW is favored at ucla, at Oregon, or vs. msu.
If they win 6-7 then I hope @HeretoBeatmyChest nightmare comes true and Nebraska poaches him after they fire Frost.
