Not to go too analytical, but I think of this schedule as three roughly equal parts: the 4 games in which we'll likely be decided underdogs (>7.5) and it'd be an upset at least if we win (LSU, Oregon, @ UDub, @ Just $C), the 4 games we'll likely be decided favorites in and we better win or its really off the rails (UC Berkeley, Fresno, Hawai'i, @ Arizona), and the 4 games that present more as 50-50 games (@ Utah, ASU, @ Stanford, Colorado) which, at first glance, if nothing improves/changes, would look like 1-3 (probably Colorado) and, with what should be progress and improvement would be 3-1 (@ Utah is gonna be tough coming directly off UDub & Oregon back-to-back).

I think we'll be better and if this were a year we were playing the PNW "States" and not the "U"s, I could see 9 wins but I'll say 7-5 with one upset as described above (if only one, hopefully one we would all give thanks for immediately & on the following Thursday!) and 2-2 in the "50-50" games. I hope I'm too pessimistic

8 wins? My prediction is 5-7.
