The two threads put out were to show that:

1. Petersen inherited about the same talent as sark did

2. While I said i'm a "negadawg" I'm not referring to the long term outlook, but of what we have seen so far, Petersen's task at hand is difficult and the top 20 program we want is a ways off. This year isn't going to be what some here thought. Except for PLSS.

All the talk about calls and tricks plays and shit is fine, but the reality is Stanford went on the road in conference and won because they were better. They were better on both sides of the ball. Period. I'm optimistic Petersen is the guy to get over the hump. If he can't do it, UW is just fucked forever.

Obligatory (profiles in courage edition): I hope I'm wrong and Petersen runs the table and goes 13-1.

    Arizona or WSU could flip. Neither are in the bag, by far. Both on the road. Yikes

    at Utah and at Cal could also be dicey games.

    I think we have a better chance of beating UCLA than we do of going .500 on the road in conference

    I'm not going to believe you unless you tell me to cook it.

    yeah... well... one more win this year and Peterman has marched Sark's brilliance as a first year Husky head coach and he'll be playing with house money the rest of the way.

    What do you know, dumbfuck once again brings nothing of value to the table.

    You really would be better off to lurk around for a bit, keep your mouth shut, and let the grown ups have the real discussions.

    Near certain loss to Oregon. The others are tough, but winnable games. 5+ wins in conference.

    We have some talent but it is painfully clear that the RB and OL positions are a disaster. And the QB stable in need of flushing. So basically I agree with the OP.

    It's been clear since Sankey and ASJ declared this offense was going to take a major step back, pining the hopes on a coaching wizard when all u had was a returning mediocre oline at best, told u all u needed to know
    No way in heck u get 5 conference wins this year like i been telling u only one is probable colorado

    For as hot of a mess as the game was against Stanford, we were in a position to win the game in the 4th quarter. Outside of Oregon and UCLA, nobody else in the conference will be at Stanford's level (who is still a reasonably decent team).

    At this point though, I'm thinking I take the 5-4 record in conference this year and grow from there. The QB position is one hell of a hot mess.

    You're a fucking pretentious faggot who deserves to be tied to the train tracks.

    At least people read my posts, since I don't spend 81 minutes constructing some shit-tier thesis on something no one gives a fuck about

    After watching the game I have a hard time thinking Stanford is that good. Sure they will win 8 or 9 games but they will lose their share of games in conference.

    I think we are destined to win 3 or 4 conference games. Petersen gets paid a boat load of money to figure it out but so far he hasn't. It's like watching rick when he took over for Lambo. Rick scrapped everything and said what the fuck can we do when they were 0-2 ans they adapted their entire offense to the talent they had.
    I really think we should run our qb a shitload of times because we sure as he'll can't throw vs a decent defense. But I leave that to Pete to figure out.

    I agree about the offense. I have seen QB's like Miles win, but they aren't in offenses that rely on downfield passing and going through progressions. Once Stanford shut down the running game in the second half, it was all over. Colin Klein at Kansas State comes to mind. He couldn't throw for shit and wasn't a blazing fast runner, but he was efficient. I hope they tailor the offense more to Miles' strengths.
    They may as well just start running the fucking option.

    PGOS has been honking that horn for days. I don't think it's a bad idea.
