Didn't Kansas State (14) just get plungered by BYU (53)?
Forgive me if I don't have much faith in this graphic.
Not to mention, UW losing to cuog (48), and Notre Dame allegedly still in top 10 despite losing to the other Huskies.
It's weird how UW markets the Hall of Fame Museum on game days. Some times you'll walk into Hec Ed and there's plenty of regular fans milling around and checking things out. Last Sat I start to walk in a security says "Can I help you?". I said we'd like to go visit the museum and they said "Oh, yes, that's fine".
I’d say it was shitty enough in the Apple Cup that it was a secondary contributor to the loss, namely punt coverage.
It may be time to start practicing special teams as it will likely cost us a game soon.
This is one way that it was evident DeBoer was a good coach early in his tenure. We had some coverage issues (I think against Kent state) that were fixed very quickly and it was never and issue again. Became a strength.
Our return game is ass.
Our coverage team is worse this year when it was nails last year with many of the same players.
punt blocked vs eastern Michigan.
They are going to lose more than they win over the next 6. I think they'll lose at Rutgers.
Michigan, USC, and Penn State are going to be losses. Those teams all have superior talent.
Iowa is always anemic on offense and has no big play skill position guys. But they usually run the ball well. Probably a toss-up, but it's a road game.
Indiana has been putting up huge points and drubbing bad teams. UW coming off a bye for that game will help. The road game at Iowa prior to the bye will tell me if they have a chance at Indiana.
You tell me how UW goes better than 2 - 4 in the next six games based on the mediocrity we've seen thus far.
The home game against UCLA is probably the only remaining game that UW is favored to win this season unless the line shifts for this week's game.
We just need to run 5 DL and 3 LBs as our base defense this week
I do think there is a decently bright future. Building ahead too much seems foolish in college football right now. Almost the entire defense should be gone after this year and major playmakers on offense - Coleman (NFL or goes somewhere else), Giles, a couple OL.
