Washington up to #8 in new AP poll

[brodo]

That's up 6 spots.

They're up 7 spots to #11 in the Coaches Poll.

They got some serious help, but good for them.

I've liked Washington for a few years anyway, so will be rooting for them to win the PAC, which will only help us (or hurt us less, I guess).

Ash's first 9 games - Rutgers is playing 5 teams in the coaches top 11, AP top 16, before easing up with PSU and MD. Ouch. Maybe we should have taken a gap year.

That is what happens when you can beat mighty Rutgers!

You are welcome, now please return the favor next year.

How will we view this game if they make the playoff?

It would take the sting off for sure. It will also make us dread the rematch next year. Because lets face it, they took it easy on us after the 1st quarter.

Interesting how differently Texas was ranked between the 2 polls.

I think you have to win a road game to get some points. But if you win a ranked team on the road, then you should climb up a lot. It is hard to win road games in CFB.

Washington beat the "Norfolf State" of BIG. That should leave them where they were.

Don't think it'd make much difference to many here. A loss is a loss. What it would say is that some of us really underestimated the Huskies:oops:

And given the talent level on the RU team, many also overestimated the Knights. Prior to the season, I could not figure how our team could win more than 4 games. I may have overestimated as well.

Wisconsin it is nice to see them jump in the ranking some respect by AP

This ^^ ... 2017 is suppose to be Washington's breakout year ... at least on paper that is.

 

[shields]

I think we will be better next year also, and yes Washington is really good.

But we'll get them at home next year. That will make all the difference in the world.

Now if you'll excuse me, I must leave now. I'm in the process of buying a bridge.
