While we wait, I am watching Utah/Wazzu right now. Wazzu's QB Minshew is the real deal, it looks like, and Utah's D is good, but overall these two teams are not going to beat Stanford unless we have another meltdown. Not sure about Kal yet. OSU is OSU, ASU will be tough in the future if they can recruit but I do not see them as a major issue this year, UCLA barely has the strength to raise its head. Of the rest of the schedule, Wazzu and Utah look the toughest. I think it separates out like this:
Top tier opponents
ND
Washington
Oregon
Middle tier
Utah
Wazzu
Kal
ASU
SDSU
USC
Low tier
OSU
Davis
UCLA
