Why are they ranked ahead in the polls?  Stanford beat them going away a couple weeks ago. Washington played WSU and nobody else. They missed SC. They played three non league cream puffs. Stanford played SC twice, a ranked SDS and a top 10 ND.

I think it’s bullsh-t that UW is ranked ahead. And I think it’s bigger bigger buush-t that they get the Fiesta over Stanford. And I can’t understand why  any Stanford fan would argue otherwise.

Im more pissed about a Washington in the Fiesta. Not earned on the field. But they travel better.  Monet baby.

I am sorry, but I can't agree here. Washington is arguably the second-best team in the PAC-12. They lost 2 games. Granted, their out-of-conference schedule was weak. But they won. While I think Stanford is the second-best team in the PAC-12, it isn't insane not to agree with me ( :) in this case at least). Money is probably a factor, yes, but in this case it is not a totally unreasonable choice. They are ranked above us in the polls, even though we beat them.

Well, Washington beat Fresno State. While they are not a great team, I don't know if I would refer to them as a cream puff. They beat San Diego State 27-3, have a win over a top 25 team (Boise State) to their credit, and are playing in a bowl game.
