Feeling really confident heading to Palo Alto now.

AOG

This team was completely out of sync

I hope that’s sarcasm. I don’t know how the fuck anyone could possibly have confidence in this team. Especially on offense. Grubb has the fucking yips.

All I know is that Meesh Powell saved me from wrapping my car around a Pullman rite aid parking lot lamp post.

This team had two bad games last year, one against these sun devils and their fucking anti husky voodoo black magic from hell, the other against UCLA the game prior. Will they lay another egg against Stanford, a la UCLA last year, before getting their shit together again? It’s possible, it would fit the pattern, and the matchups. Shit tackling and a lack of physicality are problems for this team. Stanford, Utah and Oregon State are all potential kicks in the nuts. I actually like our? chances against USC and Wazooo, but the others are all potential ankle breaking potholes.

Thanks Taft!

I agree with @Canadawg. That was a game UW normally loses. I was anxiety ridden as always staying up until 2 fucking AN but at the same time, felt a weird sense of confidence.

We? never beat ASU, we? always lose to cal, always humiliate ourselves? In the desert. Well, not this year. One last PAC-12 demon to exorcise in Palo Alto.

I hear ya but last night's performance was humiliating or at least massively humbling.

Completely agree. Good thing they picked one of the worst teams in P5 to play their worst game in 2 years. They played so bad and looked so deflated that until proven otherwise I think this is just a weird aberration, that’s our first percentile performance. I think they’ll get healthy and play much better in two weeks

It was ugly and painful. It’s a big “whatever” for me. On to the next one.

You’d think we? lost our rivalry last week the way we? looked.

I hear winners win.

Every single week we seem to be saying "well, at least we got our one bad game out of the way and got a win"

This X 1000. Not looking forward to being a B10 doormat with a waterboy playing QB next year. Watching DMO give Penix advice on the bench had me laughing and putting the game on pause for an hour because it was that much of a joke. Apparently, fast forward caused me to miss the 1 screen play Grubb called. How the fumble wasn't reviewed is beyond me. Normally, I would have replayed it 5 times but at that point I just didn't care and now I know what's in store for the foreseeable future.

I only offer the consideration that Arizona is actually a top half of the conference team

Also I believe UW beat Utah in 18? without scoring an offensive TD
