I like CT's calls.  The apparent momentum of the Washington schools--is another basically 7-5 Washington team really rising?--will make them popular choices, but Washington loses some brobdingnagian guys in their defense and Browning was serviceable but hardly spectacular, and he loses his best receiver--and maybe three of his top four.

Big deal, Washington State.  A QB like that will beat some soft teams, of which the conference had no shortage this year.  But let's be realistic; you can only go so far with that little talent.

There could be a brobdingnagian gap between Stanford and the field next year.  UCLA looked like they might have something but their two junior OLs have fled, and Clay was the heart of their defense.  And losing Payton and Perkins is brobdingnagian.  Duarte is good, and they'll win at least seven games, but is ten at all realistic?

We're the favorite going in.  I
