That’s a bold call – I wonder how many Coug fans are confident enough to pick WSU as high as 2nd in the conference.

I wouldn't call it that bold

Any team can finish 2-10 at this point. The only team that can’t really be debated is UW.

If I were to take a stab at it

It’d be UW first, probably Oregon last. Then, I’d get a dartboard, put the other 8 teams on, and just start throwing.

WSU...

Thompson, Casto, Moore. Those guys can keep them in a ton of games, but will there be enough help from the rest of the cast to win the games?

Well, I’d agree that Washington is tough to argue with at #1 and the rest is up in the air, but I’d put Arizona, ASU and UCLA ahead of WSU, and possibly Cal and USC too.

He has the ability to take a game over and will the team to Ws. I don’t think picking them at number 2 is that crazy. I agree with Brian, though… lots of parity in the conference so it is by no means a ‘sure’ pick.
