I disagree. An Oregon State win makes Utah look weaker, which would then make our win vs then in 2 weeks less significant. If Utah loses they'll then be 3-2 and drop hard in the poll.
We're better off with Utah beating Oregon St, who will remain unranked, and then us beating a 12th ranked, possibly top 10, Utah in 2 weeks.
Clark Phillips III had 3, including a pick six.The Beavs are Couging it now. Just threw their 3rd pick.
If we go undefeated, we will be in the CFP. A one loss Pac-12 champ, we would probably be in. 2 or more losses and there will be no CFP for us.If we keep winning all of our games then the people making the polls will have to recognize us. We can't control what the other teams do but we can control what we do. Going undefeated will make them have to recognize us regardless of teams beating each other.
We'll get boat raced in the playoffs. We can't even win in the trenches against ASU. They beat our o-line like a drum but CWs mobility masked it. They also owned our Dline until we started sending extra guys. This team is at least a couple years away (assuming the lines get built up).If we go undefeated, we will be in the CFP. A one loss Pac-12 champ, we would probably be in. 2 or more losses and there will be no CFP for us.
