Forgot about Minnesota. But no, the PNW doesn't get anywhere near as cold as the midwest. Playing at UW is far more enjoyable than playing at Illinois in mid-November.

Been in both. Neither were a big deal. But I like cold weather.

Yeah, I'm a cold weather person myself (wife is the driving force behind living in Key West). But man, I've been through Chicago in the middle of January vs Seattle/Portland....I'll take the former 11 times out of 10.

Fuck cold weather.

Can't wait till we hit Vegas.
I have the 3-day rule with Vegas. I remember being stationed a few hours away. Friday afternoon, I'd be the first person off base, partying it up Friday night heading into all day Saturday. By Sunday (day 3), I couldn't wait to get out of Vegas. Then rinse and repeat.

Yeah, but PNW cold isn't the same as Michigan/Ohio/Pennsylvania cold.

College football season ends so early where i dont see the extreme weather being much of a factor. You might get 1 extreme weather game per year if you're lucky

The average temperature in Ohio/Pennsylvania and Oregon/Washington is very similar in the month of November

It's a little hotter than CA (CA been getting hotter and hotter since I was a kid) so I'd just crank up the AC.

He's about as centrist as you'll get these days, he's just wishy-washy.

Yes. He is centrist and he is a decent person.

But he has about as much charisma as a lawn chair.

Awful hard for a leader to win respect from the opposing side without at least some charisma.

Still do. Always been one of my favorite things about the program.
I'd say USC might be the best at scheduling tough opponents among P5 teams. ND, too, but no conference.

I've never had an issue with OSU's but hasn't quite been on USC level. Cannot think of another who is consistently better. I like what seems to be our current model (though that could change) of 1 tough P5, another P5 and a MAC type school.

It's awfully hard to win respect from the opposing side PERIOD.
