Washington Drops Slightly in the Rankings

Following the loss to WSU, UW dropped to 20th in the AP poll and 19th in the Coaches/ESPN poll. A two spot drop in both polls. If not for the other 12 or 13 teams in the Top 25 who lost I am almost certain we would have been out of the the Top 25, because face it, the polls hate the West Coast. Syracuse has lost 4 straight and they remain at 17 in the nation. Yes, they were the number 3 team before this string of loses, but to only drop 14 spots? We lose two games against the number 8 and 2 teams and dropped off the same amount. Where is the justice?

We also stayed at a 5 seed in the bracket predictions, but are considered "moving down." The current bracket by Joe Lunardi has a possible Championship game match up against WSU. Just throwing that out there.
