Oh you guys are going to love this.

1. Defense
Played really well. Especially considering that they were put in bad spots all game long. They still have to show against spread teams. We all know the Wilcox trick of being good against Stanford but not being able to stop the spread to save your life. But this was a good first step.

2. Uhhh

3. Stanford is the best defense we'll play all year
I don't think anyone is encouraged by Miley's play. The offense as a whole was bad. But there are some tit dirt defenses in the Pac-12. The offense will be better.

4. Yeah I've got nothing else

I was encouraged that they got consistent pressure on Hogan after halftime. That's it.

I am hoping Stanford really is the best D in the league. If Cyrus the Virus isn't a total fucktard he should get better and he got put through the flames today. It was his second start against a real team. We couldn't run and he isn't savy enough yet to beat teams by himself.

The defense is a surprise. But if they were great they stop Stanford after the fake punt. They are good We still haven't seen them against spread type teams like you said. Wilcock could have coached today.

Most of the people mad at Petermen wanted Kuntkowskie fired last week so that's how it goes.

Petermen is making do with what he has and as always, decisions always look fucking stupid when they fail. There is a defense of the call because if it works we probably win. Our offense was truly bad. If you want to blame the coach for something start there.

Petermen needs to get the O fixed up and either fix Miley or shoot him in the back of the head.

Glad to see people pissed off about losing again. It should hurt and it should come down to a play here or there to dissect.

Losing sucks. Let's see where we go from here

I forgot Durkee. He's a beast.

If the fake punt works, UW still has to get 20+ yards to try a FG. High risk, low reward = bad decision.

It gives you something to obsess over for two weeks, so there's that

Meh, I'll be over it by tomorrow.

I'm already getting ready to wait until next year.

This is how I see it as well. Offense showed you nothing all day that they would be able to pick up point even if you get that first. Petersen tried to hit too many home runs in the 2nd half because he was panicking because of how much of a fucking dreckfest that "offense" was today.

Petersen deserves shit for that 2nd half today. As long as this kind of decision making doesn't become a pattern like Sark then it is what it is... Just a poorly coached half of football. It happens to all the good coaches at one point or another, we will see how he bounces back.

This is what blows my mind. You do a fake punt if your punter sucks, your punt coverage is terrible, your offense is clicking, it's relatively short yardage to a first down, and your defense is getting steam rolled.

We were literally in the exact opposite situation. There is zero reason for that fake punt. Fuck with our offense even if it worked we would have likely stalled out at the 40 yard line anyways.

The only way that trick punt would have been in a worse situation is if it would have been 4th and 20+ instead of 4th and 6

UW needs to stop recruiting lazy Offensive Lineman.
