win?
And I don’t recall any significant expectations going into 2000
I also hate having to come from behind against shitty teams.
These last 2 weeks have had me pissed throughout the entirety of both games.
These moral losses are killing me too but we’ve had 2 score leads in all games except ASU. It would be nice if we would do something when we have the chance to put the game away.
The 2000 Huskies had a lot of nasty in them (thanks Lambo), they could be physically dominant, even beat one of the most talented college football teams of all time. That is NOT this team. This team has a gunslinger and some very talented wide receivers. When there is pass protection, they are a legitimate threat to pull off a string of big plays and in general they don't quit, good traits. But they're not going to intimidate, physically dominate, grind out the clock, or work over any semi worthy opponent. A team like Alabama or Georgia would likely kick their nuts in. Edit: Even Oregon might kick their nuts in if they play again.
Being Pat Hill TUFF is overrated - see Utah.
We couldn't handle ASU's DLine for fucks sake.
What has happened since is a slew of injuries to key players with no real depth behind them, including our QB who has continued to play anyway. Everyone on the team, the coaching staff, the teams we are facing and our fans can see the impossible issues with this team and yet they have continued to find a way to believe they can and will win. Its been impressive to watch PAC 12 teams with no pulse come alive with the hope of knocking off the top ranked dawgs and then continue to terrorize the rest of the teams they face in the aftermath of playing the Dawgs.
In the great tradition, as Sammi Sosa said ‘keep it to continue’. Tightrope watching has always been a bitch to watch.
Since playing UW, Arizona has taken USC to double-OT, destroyed ranked Coug, and beaten top-10 Beavis.
Since playing UW, Oregon has outscored two ranked opponents 73-30, including giving the raw plunger to #13 Utah.
Since playing UW, ASU got their first FBS win against the Coug. Rather easily.
Poor WSU keeps being the victim of the UW bump. Watch Stanford run train on them next Saturday.
We(?)'re like that not-very-physical team on everyone's schedule that they think of as a bye, only that weirdly beats them anyway.
