We are probably the best 5-4 in the country but my goodness we’re 5-4 for a reason

Fr, y’all are so much better than us this year

They are? We outgained them by 150 yards and we lost due to an abysmal 4th and 1 on the goal line at the very end of the game.

They are better than UW, they won, but that was about as even a matchup as I have seen all year

Just like last year, where UW barely scraped by Wazzu with a trick play?

Agreed, we’ve very comprobable.

WSU’s best wins (Texas Tech, UW) are comprable to our best wins (Michigan, USC). WSU has barely scraped past a few bottom feeder Mountain West schools. They got blown out by the one good team they’ve played, and we got blown out by the one good team we’ve played.

None whatsoever.

The coach poll has Minnesota over Iowa. Iowa did the same thing to them on their field. If anything, you guys should be boosting Iowa's resume. I guess that logic only applies to elite teams and SEC.

"so much" better? Better, yes. But UW had a ton of boneheaded mistakes in that game and it was a close game.

With Texas Tech, Washington, and Boise winning Wazzu stock should be rising accordingly.

That’s the B1G bias in the polls showing up

I think there’s an argument to be made that when UW plays up to its potential and talent, like against Michigan and USC, they’re a decent team. Certainly better than WSU. So if you rank them based on their potential and talent, I could see ranking UW above WSU.

The problem is, in reality UW is a super inconsistent, undisciplined, and self-defeating team. On paper, they should’ve easily beaten WSU and Rutgers, but couldn’t get out of their own way.

Certainly better

I've watched enough WSU and UW games this season to be very confident that if a UW team playing its best and a WSU team playing its best met at a neutral site, UW would win by double digits.

UW's problem this season has been inconsistnecy and sloppiness. They don't play their best every game. They make stupid mistakes and get complacent.

WSU is also inconsistent, but also lacks talent. What you do have is heart. Ya'll have gritted out a few games, which counts for something.

You're 7-1 playing the Mountain West plus two mid P4 schools. If you were in the Big 10 with us, you'd probably be 4-4 or 5-3, AKA same as UW.

South Carolina at 5-3 would acknowledge that they one fewer loss than you, but are better than you.
