An Inconvenient Truth About Washington....

[Deep Creek]

Plus, while I love Washington's QB, I think he'd have culture shock when he sees the amount of pressure Bama will put on him,

Name a CFB QB that wouldn't!

DeShaun Watson.

In all seriousness, I agree with you. Bama overwhelms anyone they face usually -- which is why having a mobile QB is good to have against them.

You could say the same thing about OSU/michigan. Washington would move the ball, but they haven't faced a defense like either of those yet, and won't until the CFP. If they somehow slip up, it would make an interesting Rose Bowl matchup with one of OSU/michigan/Wisconsin.

I don't want Washington fans to think I am disrespecting them. I think they are a very good team. I just think they are benefitting from a very mediocre PAC-12. I still think they are a top 10 type team. But I think they are going to be in for a rude awakening if they get to the CFB playoff and face Bama. It could get ugly really quickly.

And who have BYU and Kansas State beaten? I guess I'll give TCU credit for beating a thoroughly untested and wildly overrated Baylor. That may be a slightly better win than anything Minnesota has, but let's be real - this isn't the Baylor of the last few years. None of them have any amazing wins, but Minnesota has half the losses of any of those other teams. If those teams were so much better, why is Minnesota getting votes to be ranked and none of those other 3 are?

Because Minnesota as pathetic as that schedule is, only has 2 losses while the others who have played much tougher teams have more losses.

I really don't understand why you're doing what you're doing in this thread. Putting down an undefeated Pac team because of their schedule all the while building up a 2 loss B10 team who played an equally bad if not worse schedule.

I quit reading after you talked about Washington possibly having the best CB duo. That tells me, you are a Washington fan, not a CFB fan.

Well, one is most likely a first rounder. And the other should get drafted, so whatever.....

You're fucking kidding me, right? None of these teams has faced a murderer's row by any stretch of the imagination. If you want me to give up and say Minnesota is no better than those 3, then fine. They're all pretty average teams.

However, no team WVU has faced is even in the same stratosphere as Ohio State, and PSU claims a win over them. Their resume is better than WVU's, which is what this all boils down to. They've played the 18th toughest schedule while WVU has played the 39th.

Adoree and Biggie say hi. lol

Read yesterday that only four teams are in the top ten in scoring offense and scoring defense in the country
Alabama
Michigan
Ohio State
Washington

Probably not that far off. Jones is a projected 1st rounder and King is a projected 3rd/4th rounder. Is there a duo better than that?

Thank you for the first paragraph, I agree none are above average. But stop pumping up Minnesota because they are 7-2 with a shit schedule.

I agree WVU's schedule isn't close to pen states (namely because of two teams). Although I don't think WVU's schedule is that much dogshit as you are saying. WVU could end up playing more ranked teams then Penn State. That has to count for something.

Adoree whos for sure first rounder and Biggie whos only a soph but will be a first rounder.

Adoree whos for sure first rounder and Biggie whos only a soph but will be a first rounder.

So I think "arguably" would apply here.

Washington does have one of the best CBS duos, Mr fan.

Ross and Pettis against those two, will make for some good shit on Saturday!

This guy agrees with you ATF.

That pic of Gundy makes it look like he's bring back the mullet.....

Yeah it will. USC needs to get to Browning so Adoree and Biggie will be one on one with them often.

Maybe we should let the season finish out before calling out specific teams.....

I was never pumping up Minnesota. I've never said they're anything more than an average team. However, given the fact that they're actually receiving votes and would undoubtedly be ranked if they were to win this weekend, it's still closer to a quality win than those other 3 teams, who will likely not come close to being ranked anymore this year.

They might, but they actually have to win those games. After watching them get dismantled by a decent but not great Okie State, I'm doubting they're able to beat Oklahoma, and Baylor is not going to be ranked by season's end. They're barely holding on right now at 25th.

Gareon Conley is projected as a 2nd-3rd rounder, and Marshon Lattimore is currently 15th in Todd McShay's Big Board. That's a better duo.
