    Will listen on our flight to Mexico City at noon so I don’t have to talk with my wife. Woof

    Yes…any team with a rushing attack will beat the Huskies this year.

    Dougherty's offense looks good though. I'd like to see a lot more outlet shovel passes instituted from Demond when he gets blitzed. Those could force teams to back off of blitzing.

    I'd give the OL a 4.5/10 last year. The OL looks maybe 5.5/10 this year.

    The DL and the LBs are going to lose games by themselves if they aren't fixed.

    Special teams speed and tackling is very poor.

    I'd say tackling by the LBs and Ss and the special teams needs the most improvement before B1G play begins.

    coverage units somehow were worse. At least we can return a kickoff though. I have no clue why we have Boston returning punts. Great wr but his skillset does not scream punt returner.

    Run blocking looked better but the opponent was meh. The blitz pickup was reminiscent of the Petersen days. Demond holds the ball way too long.

    Our defensive line looked maybe even worse than last year.

    I always look forward to the post-game episodes, but audio issues were a little rough on this one. I’ll give it a shot next weekend.

    We have UCLA late which means as we saw they're going to start out all time bad like nice that will be a win but then 2-3 weeks before they play UW they'll start to slowly put it together. If we have UCLA early it's always the opposite - they come out on fire, beat us and then implode midseason.
