I think one of the biggest disappointments about this season is that we had a schedule that was really nice. Avoiding Arizona State and Utah for Colorado and Arizona, we could have finished with a really good record without really beating any good teams. I know the team might not have been that good, but it would have looked good on paper and it could have been sold to the recruits.

Yeah and the Pac 12 north looks even weaker than usual, USC is a dumpster fire and looks winnable. Sure,
UCLA looks improved but we get them at Memorial. Throw in a bunch of upperclassmen and experienced players coming back and expectations were high. I thought a 8 win regular season and being ranked was extremely likely, which would have looked good and helped with fans, alums, and recruits.
In normal years we would have played them at home in 2020, but UCLA was actually not on our original schedule in the Covid shortened season that started in October. I forgot if it was Washington or Arizona State game that got cancelled, but we were fortunate to be both looking for opponents and some good job by the administrators to make the game happen at the last minute.
We were supposed to play at Arizona State I believe and it got cancelled due to a Covid out break at ASU. IтАЩm not sure who ucla was supposed to play that weekend.

UCLA game is in Pasadena
ThatтАЩs right, I forgot that last seasons rush game was supposed to be at Memorial before being moved to Pasadena.

maybe UCLA's opponent was Washington.
Utah looks terrible as well this year.
