we are lucky we got Sark

And not a coach with a pulse

Offense was off and uninspired

Gotta learn from this and improve to get us to the playoffs next year

Kwat is a really good, they have a lot of talent on defense. They held Bama to 20. I'm not worried. We were off and still scored 27 on a top 15 defense in the country.

In the 2nd half the offense completely dominated the time of possession.

Its the same concept that he ran here. Grubb hates to take the 3-6 yards every play vs that defense until he absolutely has to. It was a mirror of the cal game. Hopefully we run it better next year and set up the big plays on double moves and play action. In the second half they took what they were giving us and our rb’s did just enough.

The only problem with the offense was calling about 10 too many 25+ yard passes. Same as the Cal game. Grubb needs to have a little more patience against deep zone defense. Should've called more screens.

Whole game screaming just take the 3-6 yards. Was a bad scheme matchup for UW. Grubb/Penix just couldn't resist trying to take shots downfield. Weren't helped out by a crew that seemed to not want to call pass interference. There were a lot of run plays early where a dynamic running back is getting huge gains.

Every tim Kwat dialed up a blitz in the second half it seemed that Penix had a screen called right behind it. Great second half by the offense. Not sure I've watched UW run so many successful screen plays since the early 90's. Pete tried during his tenure and they were always mysteriously blown up.

They aren't a shitty coaching staff.

Gotta stick to your identity and if they hit one of those the game is over.

True, but I felt they really could have demoralized that Texas defense earlier by grinding on them. A Texas fan asked my buddy in the second half how the UW receivers are always open. They were, it was just all underneath.

Disagree. Take what they give you, get the DBs to creep up because they get tired of getting nickel and dimed to death underneath and with the run game, then you hit them deep and the game is over. We made it harder on ourselves than we needed to.

Penix was flat out missing guys the entire first half

You're right, he was. All the more reason to dial it back and take the underneath stuff.

The 2 scoring drives in the 2nd half gave me flashbacks to the Kwat/Lake defenses never getting off the field. The only thing that saved me was that I was viewing from the other side.

Penix was off. I think the layoff hurt the rhythm of the passing game and getting a national showcase and heisman chatter caused him to press.

Texas also has better overall talent than any other uw opponent this year. They were pretty sticky on Rome.

Uw wasn’t quite ready, also road game.

The Texas defense had more to do with Penix being off than any layoff

They had good push up the middle.

I thought the same, while they were getting free shots on Penix, felt like Luciano and Bain were more in his lap than I’d seen all year.

This sums up my thoughts as well.

If Pete K can do anything, it's disrupt a QBs rhythm.

Still, the shots were there and Penix couldn't hit the big one.

My worry is that, if this were an NY6/Playoff game, UW's defense wouldve gotten boatraced and the offense wouldn't have kept up. Sloppiest 10 point halftime lead of all time.

That being said, we are rich, cool, 11-2, and won a bowl game against a big dick program for the first time in fucking forever.

I dealt with Steve a lot while he was at Washington. First thing to know is he is incredibly bright. He learned a lot at Washington and fought some demons. He's a bright, articulate, charming, engaging guy who is also competitive as hell. He's appeared to put his demons behind him.

You're going to love Sark. It will be interesting to see who he fills his staff with. Knowing the competitive nature of Sark, I'm sure he negotiated a large assistant salary pool. If he gets Tosh Lupoi on staff, watch out. Tosh is one of the best recruiters I've ever dealt with. He's currently with Atlanta.

He's an outstanding recruiter and phenomenal working with QB's. He trusts his guys and has an edge. Guys love playing for him.

Deboer didn't hit a home run drawing Sark in the Bowel Game. He hit a grand slam.
