    I'm telling you, this was a new sideline Sark for sure. Maybe Woodward told him to get his shit together (doubt it), or maybe he reads HH.

    But he didn't look like an idiot frat boy last night. Even when up big he looked serious and all business. No jumping on the sidelines like a fucking idiot monkey. No yucking it up like a fat girl at a party looking to get some pipe layed. And he actually looked engaged in the game, instead of his usual:

    1) Head buried in the playbook still trying to remember the call for BUBBLE SCREEN
    2) Slack jawed retard staring blankly at the jumbotron dreaming of a Dick's burger for his triple chin

    Maybe he was channeling a real Coach last night. I don't fucking care. Just win.

    I honestly think Sark knows the heat is on him. Even during the interview with Rick when Rick called him seven win Steve you could tell it burned him and that wasn't the first time he's heard that.

    Even after the game he admitted he didn't even noticed the crowd he was so focused on the game. Up 31-6 he started to run the ball but kept Price in there and we still ran our offense. He was still focused on getting one more score.

    I liked up 24-6, Wilcox calls a corner blitz. How many times in the past have we seen the Huskies go to prevent there? That dates back to when Lambo was head coach even. I loved that we didn't let up one bit.

    If you didn't know better that looked like Oregon last night kicking the shit out of a good opponent. Like Oregon on defense they didn't look dominant yet at the end of the day allowed only 6 points. On offense they just wore you down and broke through in the second half.

    YRYK. We did look like Oregon. Show flashes in the first half, and absolutely go fro the throat in the second when the D is physically dead. Like I said some other fucking place, about time Sark tried to emulate a winner - Chip.

    A part of me died after seeing them implement elements of Chip's (really Rich Rod's) offense, but whatever ...they executed very well and cfb, like the NFL, is full of copycats.

    Winning > gimmicky offenses.

    Nebraska and Virginia tech copied uw back in the 90s and it worked fine for them.

    When did Nebraska ever copy UW? Are you talking defense?

    I was confused by that too. I know Rick copied Nebraska with the option attack.

    Far as defensively I remember Arizona copying UW's attacking style of defense from 1992-1994.

    as long as the offense works I couldn't give a shit if it's gimmicky. Our pro style offense last year was crap, our gimmicky offense is a way better fit for our personnel. Especially for our o-line

    Yes I am referring to defense. Point is who gives a shit as long as it works.
    Nebraska tried mimick what uw did with personell and va tech even copied the scheme as well as personel.
    When the wishbone came out people probably said the same thing.

    The thing that surprised and pleased me was that our hurry-up offense didn't look like a confused clusterfuck out there. We looked mostly organized and like we had confidence and knowledge of what we were doing.

    Not a small point here. I really thought we were going to all fucked up out there, but instead, we looked like we had been doing this awhile. At least Sark finally started copying a winner - so thanks Chip.
    Now opponents have some film on us so we shall see what they do to adapt.
    How are they going to adapt when there are multiple guys who are playmakers (Sankey, ASJ, Kasen, Ross, Mickens)? You have 5 guys who are tough to defend 1 on 1.

    This offense should roll over most teams and produce against UCLA & ASU. Stanford & Oregon will be the real tests with UCLA & ASU next.

    I know Chip has been asked to explain his "complex" offense on several occasion, and he always says it is pretty simple, get a helmet on a helmet and set your skill guys up with 1 on 1 matchups.
