Over 90% of the first few weeks of the college football season is unwatchable. It's preseason games against schools they have no business scheduling. 

Honestly we've had a lot of very competitive games so far through week 0 and the first part of week 1.

Except Colorado.  They played exactly the level of competition that they match-up with.

This is maybe correct on paper, but wrong when the games are actually played. If you have access to watch, there is usually a competitve game going.

Boom, both of last year's national championship teams are headed to stinkville this year

Or, at least in the UW (Washington Huskies) case that definitely seems to be the case as they didn't even make the top 25 this year.

And while I don't know how much, Michigan is going to go down big time too.  Well, not today against that scrub Fresno State team, but they're dropping to 9-3 at least, calling it right now.

UW seems like that sort of thing that happens from time to time, where you get a team make the natty because they have an incredible array of players who will be in the NFL next year.  They don't recruit at the level of a UGA or an Ohio State, so it's not sustainable, but they can still get a superteam occasionally.

Well plus their coach who built the program left, so they along with the now Harbaugh-less UM are back the decline spiral.
