He played and was a step slow all night. Repeatedly

    He will live on in HHB / HH lore on a Chris Massey level of shit defending.

    Saw his hair bobbing out of his helmet on the first td run just as I was thinking “what is that fucking angle the safety is taking here”. And I had my answer

    It wasn't a bad angle, he was too close to the line of scrimmage and Edwards was way too fast.

    I will die on the hill that the defense holding Michigan to 20 through 3 quarters shouldve been enough to win rather easily.

    The banged up offense was the reason for this L, particularly the RBs and offensive line. Johnson is a warrior, Rogers isn't ready, Nixon sucks, and Davis is injured.
    Rogers isn't ever going to be ready... Nixton sucks, Newton was sarficed to the extra ribs god i guess? UW needs an actual RB like hohnson in the Grub scheme that can pass block... just way to much stress on the OL if you have a small tard like rogers in the bakcfield

    Asa was terrible his entire Husky career. He had moments where you were like “oh wow he might not be completely incompetent”. Then reality comes back shortly after usually within the next couple of plays.

    thought he was fine in coverage always was not a good run defender. honestly on those dumb ass run plays seemed like the DL actually blew up the plays and the LBs were evacuated somewhere. He's about number 15 on my shit list this game.

    Kyler Manu feels disrespected by this.

    Let's just say that I agree.

    Perhaps the biggest defensive WTF moment for me came during Michigan's 4th quarter TD with the long pass over the middle to the tight end. Hampton was behind the tight end, the tight end catches it, then Hampton jumps straight up into the air, allowing the tight end to run right by him and gain another 18 yards. It's at 16:50 here:

    Dom Hampton is an athletic freak who would dominate the underwear Olympics. Still love him, but what position does he even play at this point?

    I mentally prepared myself to get beat on 2-3 really bad play actions going into the game. Only thing was I thought the offense would be able to remotely make up for it. Did he make a single play in 5 years other than always seem like he was going to get an unnecessary roughness flag?

    If he had illegally held ZTF for like 0.001 less seconds, I wouldn't even be mad.

    I hated him until this season, but he had a good year.

    the DAWGS got beat. They weren't physical enough. Shitty reffing didn't help at all

    Here's my take on the Michigan holding: Both on the LOS and down the field in the defensive backfield, the wefs were allowing jersey tugs all night long.

    SO TUG THEIR FUCKING JERSEYS!

    If they can do it, you can do it, too. The problem with the ticky tack Rosengarten hold was that he missed the snap, got badly beaten off the ball, and engaged the end outside of the frame with his left hand. Not a jersey tug hidden by the body or with hands in where it all kind of blends in, but a guy blowing by him and reaching out an arm. It's just going to get called every time.

    Fair? No. But I never got the impression the wefs were totally in the tank, rather they just preferred to stay out of it unless it was right out there in the open. One team played right up to the established line, the other team played like they thought the wefs were from the PAC-12.

    My Florida State buddy warned me about this crew before the game. I dismissed it as sour grapes.

    What you are saying is true, but still.

    Roger touched the guy on his chest plate and then hit him in the back to escort his momentum to the turf. It was nothing more. And that was the play. The big play we were waiting for all game. The one that was about to make the shit 20-20. But nah, no dice. I fucking hate complaining about refs too. I feel dirty.
    One of those Edwards 40 yard TD runs has a missed holding on the tackle Herbie acknowledged, too.

    It happens. We got favorable reffing against Tejas.

    This is the one you're referencing.



    And yes, you're right, it swings both ways, but we got the short end tonight in some real crucial moments. Tis what tit is.

    Someone post some tits. Maybe that'll distract me.
