Three reasons for Monday-morning quarterbacks to be optimistic:
- Yes, the Washington Husky gridders (3-7) have lost to four top-25 teams (Oregon, Ohio State, Arizona State, and USC), but they also beat one (Boise State, otherwise undefeated at 9-1).
- Yes, the Seahawks can lose to the 49ers tonight and still have a share of the division lead at 4-5.
- No, the 0-7 Sonics (aka, the Oklahoma Soonics) can't possibly be mathematically eliminated from the postseason until at least January.
