    All four losses were to ranked teams.

    One of whom, Oregon, has been proven to be overrated. ASU was embarassing as was UCLA.

    Good teams play up, not down.

    In 2012 they beat Stanford in a game that ultimately might have cost Stanford a shot at the BCS championship.

    In 2009 they beat third-ranked USC. In 2010 they also beat USC (which was undefeated at the time but ranked 18th).

    Yeah, according to the BCS poll, they lost to the No. 7, No. 11, No. 12 and No. 18 teams.

    What an embarrassment of a program. :D

    Gotta do a little better than 0-4 in those kind of games, though, right? Did they beat anyone in the BCS Top 15?

    Exactly. I know you and everyone else on the Front Range would take similar results in Boulder. From where that program was and to switch it that quickly.

    Of everyone hired in FBS football, basically half of them were hired after he was. And the other half were hired before him.

    Colorado is going through what Washington went through a few years back. Hawkins ran the program into the shitter, the first replacement couldn't do anything. The second replacement is doing better, but it's still a rough road back.

    Dick Biddle retires at Colgate. Did a nice job. The Red Raiders were one of five private schools to ever reach the I-AA/FCS champhionship game. Not a bad job for someone who wants to coach smart kids playing the closest thing to Ivy League football, in a beautiful small town.

    Once again, Bodie takes the contrarian position, just because.

    UW had TWO successive coaches run things into the ground. They never should've shitcanned Neuheisel the way they did in the first place.
