    When was the last time UW played this shitty and yet still won?

    Is there any reason why we shouldn’t have @PurpleBaze put a jihad on Grubb and whoever the fuck 30 for 30 was?

    I’ll take your comments off the air. Thanks pods!

    Derek — Yes, you pronounced biak1 properly a few pods ago. Please comment on:

    1) Tackling is still an issue in Year 2. Improved maybe sorta but still shit overall. I expect the first guy to miss and am rarely disappointed. ASU seemed to get 4-5 yards a run whenever they wanted to, and planned to use 4th downs to go for it. That ramps up even more pressure on the defense, but they got killed on TOP (37:29 to 22:31) because they can’t get the carrier down. Hardcore Husky overreaction aside, is it time to get some different defensive coaches?

    2) Disappearance (regression?) of ZTF and Trice. Very little pressure on the other team’s QB, again. The D had 4 TFL and zero sacks. If the D had a lead to play with they may have been more aggressive here.

    3) Grubb playcalling I.e. where are the screens? We seemed to be predictable when we’d run the ball and immediately take a 3+ yard loss. Where were Culp and Westy? Weather like this is where a running game steps up and the offense couldn’t fucking do it. Red Zone playcalling continues to be a problem. Call a timeout to run a WR sweep promptly out of bounds? 2 point conversion attempt is a double halfback pass? CHRIST

    4) Is Penix hurt or mindfucked? ASU was bringing a lot of pressure and the OL was having difficulty picking it up. Regardless, Penix still forced a horrible first INT and the RPO handoff was awful. Do we ever run RPO anyway? This goes back to #3. Penix had a QBR in the 40s for his worst game rather easily. Shelve the Heisman talk GROZ.

    5) OL was an abortion and the worst they’ve played all year. Idk if the playcalling helped at all against the constant blitzing but ASU fucked over Huff’s boys pretty bigly.

    6) An ugly win is still a win, but they played like absolute dogshit. The calls for deportation to Gaza were legitimate and warranted.

    Looking at questions 2 & 3, how was ASU able to get home on every pressure and we? come up 2 yards short all night (at least until their final possession.

    How much did having their asses kissed for beating Oregon and being 6-0 all week impact how they played against ASU?

    For the third game in a row, Washington “didn’t play their best game tonight.”

    It kind of looks like Grubb has been figured out. Last night extinguished my dooging, hopefully he can prove me wrong and reignite it.

    Shower or fridge? Knowing what you know now, how do you see the rest of the season playing out for the Huskies?
