Keep Me From Being Chicken Little

Nothing has changed with me, besides being wrong about last weekend..lol. 8-10 wins. All the mistakes I witnessed are fixable and mostly disciplinarian. I’m not panicking, it’s one fucking game in a long season
-
When they end the season 7 or 8 wins or better, I'm going to expect a lot of ring kissing and a little more respect around here.

Meh. Your original poast said 9-3. That was straight dooging. I was thinking 7 wins max (negadooging) after the game and now I think 8 could be likely (possible). This team is a collection of parts just thrown together in less than six months. I am starting to believe that this was maybe not a fatal loss but a learning one. One we could not afford within the B1G.
Take Northwestern, Rutgers and Michigan to learn and improve. Then leave it all out there during murderers row.
I still hate the play call but if it was blocked wrong by a youngun (Latu) who is playing in critical situations because of injuries and lack of depth I can understand (not accept) the Fisch tale.

This is an art, not a science. I'm saying 5 wins is a bit of an overreaction. Of course, anything could happen. But seven wins feels pretty safe to me. Then it's a matter of grabbing your balls and calling an 8th or 9th win. I have grabbed my balls. I'm saying 8 or 9. 7 at worst. If we were playing Buck instead of Michigan I'd adjust by -1. I think we? have a very good shot at Michigan. If Arkansas State can stay within 10, we? can beat them at home. Totally doable. Cook it.

It's definitely one of those chicken or egg things a bit but Apple Cup loses if you go back and look at the years are predictive of disappointing and underachieving seasons. Going back to the start of the James year 1982 is about the only year where UW wasn't fucking themselves up that season where they lost the Apple Cup. Not a great sign.
-
Yeah but this is a different Apple Cup year. My Cuog was particularly greased up and played about as well as we? can play, and, still, your? wide receiver and coaching staff had two relatively easy chances to smack a walk off home run to win it anyway. I wouldn't take too much meaning out of losing to Cuog. We? had this game circled in dark ink and it's all we? really have going for us in life. Washington was the better team; even @GrandpaSankey could see as much. Trust me.
-
how come Washington was the only one that benefited from the Covid year?
-
The whole "greased up Coug" thing really serves to let Fisch off the hook. I don't care how greased up they were. UW should never have lost that game, period. I know you are not intending to provide cover for Fisch and his horrible game planning, but that's effectively what that kind of excuse serves to do. Dick Fain was saying this same line last Friday before the game - UW was better on paper, blah blah, "but Coug are emotionally desperate to win this one." I think that's weak and let's UW off easy for blowing it.
-
I was in the 8-5 camp. That factored wins over cuog, Rutgers and Indiana. I was too doogish I’m afraid. UW will not only need to find a way to beat those two, but also pick up a win against the likes of Michigan, Iowa, USC, Penn State or Oregon, which I counted as losses.
Gonna be dicey. 6-6 seems to be the ceiling based on what I’ve seen after three games.

3-9
