Husky stadium is one of the loudest stadiums in college football, perhaps the loudest 70,000 stadium. The Seahawks constructed their stadium with Husky stadium in mind by putting roofs on the sideline section to trap crowd noise.

Northwestern lost to Illinois State and Western Michigan while Iowa only lost FCS champion NDSU and came out with the win against Iowa. Then I think FSU has been getting by with name recognition that despite losing by nearly 40 points were still the highest ranked 1 loss team.

I remember the CFB Live crew downgraded Washington because the beat Arizona by only a TD on the road but smoking a top ten team... like I said its still early.
