Revised Win Predictions after OOC.

He forklifted him into the QB, caused a fumble and recovered it on one play. That center could not handle him at all. I had my 8th grader who is a budding DL guy watch that play about 4 times to show him how get off, leverage and hip strength and inside hands win every time.
 
New Hampshire is a win so I wanted to see how people were feeling going into conference play after seeing the first two games and what the rest of the Pac-12 did.

UCLA: 17 point win
ASU: 7 point win
USC: 10 point loss
Washington: 24 point loss
OSU: 24 point win
Arizona: 10 point win
Washington State: 14 point win
Utah: 10 point loss
Cal: 14 point win

That puts us as 9-3 with the possibility of getting 10 wins with the bowl game which would be amazing.
UCLA actual - 22 point win
ASU actual - 7 point win
USC actual - 11 point loss

Give this man some rep, but also **** him if his Washington projection is correct.
 
I'm gonna say 10-2 right now. We've won three games I had pegged as toss-ups (Fuskers, UCLA, and ASU), and the loss we have is one I'm not really that shocked by. Still think we're favored in every game after this weekend (probably more along the lines of standard home field -3 when Wazzu and Utah come here, but still).
 
I feel like 9-3 is about right. Preseason I'd also thought Nebraska, UCLA and ASU were hard to call and wouldn't have been at all surprised had we lost 1-2 of those. USC I expected to lose. On the other hand, WSU and (lately) Utah are playing better than I anticipated too. I think odds are we lose to Washington and one of Utah/ WSU.
 
Here is how I see it going.

UW: 20 point loss
Oregon State: 24 point win
Arizona: 17 point win
WSU: 7 point loss
Utah: 14 point loss
Cal: 10 point win
Ignoring the point differential, this is exactly what I think the wins/losses will look like from here on out.
 
I'm hopeful having WSU and Utah at home allows us to steal one of those.
One can hope. Utah looks REALLY good to me right now and WSU was far more effective than we were at Memorial. But maybe home field will make a difference. Even though Utah got beat by WSU, Utah seems a tougher out at the moment.

Utah has the tougher road coming into Boulder - U$C this week (go Utes!) then @ UCLA who has some dudes and is playing better, then @ ASU where they traditionally struggle, then host Oregon. Plus, Holy War following our game. That is a tough stretch.

Wazzu hosts Oregon this week, as well as their first game day, then @ Stanford and host Cal. 2 home games against UofA and UDub to close things out. Not as daunting, and if they win this week, they will be sky high. I just don’t know what to think of Stanford.

I think the Utes tough schedule helps us and we pull that one out. I actually think we can scheme Wazzu and keep the ball away from their offense - similar to what Utah did, but we have them at home.

Grab 5 of 6 again and this team most definitely exceeded everyone’s expectations and have to be happy going into bowl season.

Would love to see Chev do what he says they need to do and attack UDub - really feel we beat U$C last week if we are up 14-0 in the first. I would love to see this team get over the hump with a quality win and beat a ranked team on the road this weekend.

Well there’s just not a damn thing I disagree with in there.
 
Stanford should bounce back down the stretch. Getting UC Davis week three was a little break but having USC, Oregon, Notre Dame and Utah in 4 out of 5 weeks is pretty tough. Especially back to back road games against Oregon and Notre Dame.
