Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

If the Huskies have any prayer of winning tonight...

Dwayne Washington has to go for 180 yards and 3 TDs, and Browning needs to make 3-4 clutch third down completions. The Husky defense is good enough to hold USC to 27 points.

Otherwise, Huskies lose by 20.

    Completely agree.
    I also think avoiding turnovers is gonna be key. i know.... You can say that of every game but from what I remember Wilson's defense is bend don't break, making the other team earn their points, and relying on turnovers a lot. At least I got this impression when he was here.

    Agree. This USC defense can be run on. If (and I know this is a big if) Smith is "stubborn" and sticks to the running game, then we can stay in the game. Limit Jake to around 20 passes, and we have a chance.

    There's only one way we win tonight. We need to get alcohol in the SC locker room before the game and lots of it. Hire a Joey's waitress to deliver it if you have to.

    If Sark hits the sidelines sober, we'll know for sure that Peterman's not serious about winning.

    We?

    J Smith needs to leave his playbook at home and wing just rip it to have any chance tonight

    Knock that fucker Kessler on his ass. But who am I kidding. A strong defensive effort will just result in Petersen blaming the loss on poor tackling.

    I cannot start the game thread.

    We needed to tackle better even though our offense kept our defense on the field until they died from exposure. But we've got to clean that up.

    Oh, the offense? Oh, we'll be fine. Just execution problems for the 19th game in a row.

    The sportsbook I use is now predicting USC to win 37-20 but I don't see USC scoring 37 points on the solid / relatively deep Husky D (unless UW turns it over 5 times and gives up a lot sacks again).

    Will be interesting to see how Wilcox decides to defend the Babushka's kitchen sink approach....probably similar to Boise, lots of Man Cover 2 and Cover 2 zone at the onset daring Babushka to run them out of a 2 deep safety look and not bringing too much pressure in case Babuska sticks with the bubble screensFS.

    Huskies badly need Babushka to remain "stubborn" in the running game and need to win Special Teams...which could include getting USC in 4th and medium in the 25-35 yard range and seeing their kicker miss a couple of longer kicks while Van Winkle nails his kicks (when Babushka's offense is punching it into the endzone!!!!!1!!!!@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11!!!!!!).
