Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
Should there be a UW-UO prediction thread?
People are throwing out oredictions in scattered threads. This makes it hard, for those so inclined, to bring them up later and mock people.
I think
@haie week warrants it's own thread.
UO 49
UW 28
The duck offense isn't one dimensional, has excellent running backs and a running QB. Franklin is good and there's plenty of speed all over the field. UW won't be able to slow down the offense let alone stop it. 49 is conservative.
Penix playing from behind seems to bring out careless plays and UW receivers have had tons of drops in critical situations. All Oregon will need is a couple of first quarter stops and the route will be on.

Prediction?
I should've used the higher discussion board. L
But, seriously: 45-21 Oregon
You guysm know I don't watch the games any more, so my prediction is the most worthless guess in this history of HCH.
Oregon 28
Washington 28
I've seen the movie 10 times now where Oregon has a shitty defense but then is nails against Washington. The Husky offense probably struggles to score until the game is pretty much out of reach and Penix throws a couple picks. The offense and Penix have quietly sucked against any defense with even a hint of a pulse, which Oregon's has and this will be their first real road game, which is especially terrifying with their reliance on changing plays at the LOS.
I've officially given up. They have a HC who has 110% fake solar panel salesman vibes, a super autistic OC who has been shit everywhere going off, and a QB who was average for years in college football suddenly unstoppable. Also, quietly 75% of their players who actually make their plays are guys who were mid-level Pac-12 recruits, if not lower, with little NFL potential. It's best to just not care anymore.
I'd almost rather go back to the Pete USC years or the Chip Oregon/Prime Stanford years because I at least understood why they couldn't compete with those teams, even if UW is technically probably more competitive now.
