Not gonna lie

jecornel

I want this game so bad. Indescribable. I want it so bad for all these kids. What this group has done over 27 games is absolutely insane. All the bullshit many of these kids dealt with at the hands of Cohen and Lake is criminal. Now to have the chance at a title is truly incredible.

My buddy calls Deboer the statue. He’s already earned one. So has Penix. What these two guys have done together since Indiana is lightning in a bottle. It’s rare air. To have this happen at Washington with the timing of Rome, Polk, McMillan, and the o-line is like winning the lottery. Then being able to put it all together is a script for a movie. Not leaving out the defense either. Their ability to show up at crucial moments is legendary.

I don’t even want to think about all these guys departing. All the personalities, the charisma and the brotherhood will be hard to see go.

They have one more game together and I have no doubt they will leave everything on the field. I believed the Sugar Bowl was going to be special and I believe Houston will be too.

I some of the vibes that I had when I went to the Whammy in Miami. The local media didn’t even talk about the Washington game. They were talking Florida state which I believe was still two weeks away for Miami.

Michigan by most has already been crowned. We shall what happens come Monday but I’m never doubting Deboer again. Never doubting this team. All in.

GO DAWGS! Get this done boys. True dawgs, true grinders, true believers. The Husky family has your back and we will give it all we got in the stands.

Somewhere between the pac CCG and the Sugar, my desire for winning switched from me wanting to win because I love the Huskies to I want them to win so the team goes out as winners.

do young people still drink and party like they used to? i dont think ive heard one story of any of these players conducting themselves poorly outside the program. they are on a mission

Thinking about the journey legit can get me to tear up and I can’t get myself to think about it ending either way yet. It’s lame and pathetic to say but I follow most of the team on social media and it’s been awesome to see them get to experience the CFP and everything that comes along with it. I obviously dont follow other teams but it seems like such a difference experience compared to the Bama’s and Ohio States and Clemsons that probably just expect to always be there. Especially considering what percentage of the team was on that 2021 team and the transfers who all came in are pretty much were underdog types led by Penix.

Not sure it was party related, but the pod briefly discussed a player incident we’re not going to talk about.

I've heard some stories of them taking shots in NO after the Sugar Bowel.

Not a drinker myself but they earned it.

I was way more into it on 1/1/1992 because college football was different and better then, but it could be another 30 or 40 years before we get back. Maybe young people like Backthepack don't know any better and can get into it 110%

This is just how I feel as well.

Vulnerable moment here: I was surprised how emotionally vindicated I felt when we played and beat Oregon both times. I think in my head I conflate them with all that's evil, shallow, corrupt, fake, manipulative, corrupt in this world. Like I really genuinely hate them and what they stand for. Both victories were cathartic for me.

Winning against TX and what the gods may bring Monday - that's different. That's how a normal happy sports fan should feel.

I’m going to miss this Fucking team. I don’t want this season to end. Too much god damn fun

It’s tough when you lose and can’t say “we’ll get them next year.” Very few college fans can say that and believe it. Both Michigan and Washington need to cash in on this opportunity.

I’m going cry on Monday, I know it…Win or Lose. I also want this sooooo bad.

And I’m not talking “pretty” cry either, where I give this feminine sniffle before a single tear gently cascades down my cheek…

…it will be a full on ugly cry - eyes bloodshot red, snot dripping out of my nose, gulping for air inbetween sobs.

And I won’t care.

they are a special team. they deserve to hang the banner (they will). Seniors of these kids committed to pete and had to live through Slick Jimmy but they stuck it with and got themselves to the natty.

Exactly. I keep thinking of the saying “you didn’t come this far just to make it this far” with them. I know life doesn’t “owe” us anything, but I will curse the heavens if the football gods took this amazing team to the championship game only to have them lose to a cheater with pleated khakis.

Just one more win, please 🙏
