3. Washington Huskies - 9-6

Washington, along with the loss to Oregon, has also dropped its games against Utah and Colorado.

Beyond that, the Huskies have only been able to collect nine wins this season, losing to Colorado State, San Diego State, and Nevada in non-conference play.

These losses for UW have all been close games, the biggests core differential being a mere 7 points in the loss to Nevada which was only the team's third game of the season.

The Pac-12 losses have been even closer. Losing by only 5 points to Utah, 4 points to Colorado and a minuscule 2 point loss to the Ducks.

The Huskies have some power-players on the roster who shouldn't be ignored. Keion Brooks Jr. put up 26 points in the team's win over Oregon State on Saturday and teammate Sahvir Wheeler was able to contribute 16 points of his own.

Washington will travel to Eugene on February 8th for a chance a redemption.
