Can we please keep NWS pics in clearly labeled NWS threads?
You are one of like three people here who have a job. Maybe we should make a NSFB (not safe for basement) label that would apply to, well, nothing. It's funny, I taste lemons.
I think it's probably advisable to assume that this entire site is NSFW.
I'm probably overly cautious, but I've never opened this site at work. I'll just use my phone here and there...& I actually don't have time to poast 30 x a day 99.9% of the time. I did use to go to another site that was basically a milder, non-Husky version of this, but they didn't have much citrus or celeb nude pics on there.
Hawaii had 4 returning Poly offensive linemen and Poly players all over. Those guys are big, tough and mean. We were one dimentional most of the game. What the fuck do you expect? Their were open receivers ALL night (as seen by a source in attendance) Miles would have hit these guys and Washington would have won by 14-21. I expect a different outcome against an even better team on Saturday. Our defense wasnt ready for a pounding. They will be next time

I agree that we would have won by 2-3 scores with Miles, but what's wrong with expecting to beat a 1-11 MWC team by more than one point? We got outgained 424-336. They have won 4 games in two years. They recently spoke about dismantling the football program. They may have had 4 returning Poly's on the OL. We have a returning front 7, most guys having 2+ years of starting experience. Hawaii would be thrilled to have almost every player on our roster. Why were we getting pushed around by them?
I do still think we have a good defense that will have bright moments. It may not be as good as expected by many on the board though. I question the Hudson's starting on the DL and whether the LB's reach their potential.

1-11 was last year and Iosefa missed 7 games. Hawaii lost 5 games by a TD or less. In 2012, Fresno and USC beat Hawaii by 35 and 39. Then with clearly better teams in 2013 they played @Hawaii and won by 17 and 5. Playing @ Hawaii is not a typical road game.
I looked at the Sagarin ratings from last year for the pac 12 opponents last week. It is amazingly drecktastic. Weber St who ASU played and allowed nearly 21 points to was #228! South Dakota was 160, UC Davis 177. Portland St who OSU barely beat was 162 at home. Its hard to tell now but we might look back and say that was the toughest opponent any pac-12 team played that week. Maybe Northwestern will suck. Virginia might be okay, who knows.
That being said, hopefully Miles is a 20 point difference over Lindquist and not 7-10. Maybe that game is a sign that we don't have the guys to compete with the best in the conference. The bottom line is it doesn't tell me we can't win 10 games. Maybe the coaching metrics guy is right to assign a -1 this year because of a new coach effect.

We will have to save some for the podcast, but you are really trying to rationalize a terrible performance. I'm in complete agreement we can still win ten games, but let's call it how it is. Hawaii sucks. 1-11 teams that don't win a single MWC game suck. No other metrics are needed in that case.
What the rest of the Pac 12 did against terrible teams has nothing to do with what UW did. Calling that opener anything but a disappointment is a lie. I'm sure the UW coaches feel the same way. You predicted UW to win by like 40 points on the podcast. We have all talked bout the front 7 and OL being a strength and they got outplayed (or to a standstill if being generous) by a bad MWC team.

You keep referring to Hawaii as a 1-11 team. Again, that was last year in which their best player missed 7 games. This is like people calling UW in early 2009 an 0-12 team. They are probably considerably better this year and they do have a good home field advantage as evidenced by the game results. I predicted a 25 point win. It was a shit performance for sure but just trying to point out that no more than 15-20 teams would blowout Hawaii @ Hawaii with their backup qb. We have to get a lot better though.
