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

UW +19 @ the Tree. O/u 47.5

Wow that is a lot higher than I anticipated.

Maybe I am drinking the kool aid but I put down 3 units on UW plus the points.

Stanford has yet to face a rushing defense in the top 60 in the nation in opponent yards per rush attempt. UW is tied for 20th at 3.4.

Vizcaino's strong leg will also eliminate McCaffrey as a KO return threat (as will UW's offense never scoring.)

Shaw is over due for some dumb coaching decisions and when he sees the ineptitude of the UW offense I think he will be content playing it safe and settling for FGs and punts.

I see this setting up as a good ol' fashioned moral victory. Say, 22-13?

    + 19 to Stanfraud...that's sickening

    Yeah I know they're good at football now. We need to be good at football too.

    I'd still take UW vs that kind of spread.

    UW and the points seems like the smart bet, but I would never bet on this team or coach. I remember in 2011, my buddy put $250 on UW against Stanford. The line was +20 and UW was 5-1 at the time. I was thinking it was easy money, but Stanford broke out the plunger.

    2011 vs. 2015

    Team sucks/Team sucks

    Team is overrated/Team is not rated

    Team shown propensity to give up points by the truckload/Team shown propensity to lose "close" low-scoring games

    As a fan, win just win.

    As a bettor taking the points- one of these things is not like the other.

    2011's d was horrible. This one is good and Hogan's Heroes is a serviceable qb but he's not going to light up any scoreboards. If they can't contain Ed McCaffrey's son, there's a problem.

    Didn't Oregon get some opportunities in the return game last week? I remember one return went for about 90 yards or so.

    I'd eat the points and take Stanford and the under. I don't think UW scores in the double digits. I'm going 30-6 Cardinal.

    This. With a fucking bullet.

    Fuck everybody.

    Yeah and Vizcaino made the TD-saving tackle. I just hope he isn't hurt.

    That was the only time in Pac-12 play this year that UW's opponent started a drive past the 26 yard line after a kickoff (admittedly a small sample size.)

    Lot higher than I thought too. I thought it would be around 13.

    CFN thinks Stanford will win 35-13 due to Browning probably not playing and the Husky OL not being very good:

    I like the Dawgs in this one
  • dncdnc Member Posts: 56,819

    Watch, with Browning out we will run 70% of the time and win 17-13.

    2002 Oregon game redux? Chico McLatcher in the Shelton Sampson role?

    The line was delayed a few days...it could be pricing in the risk KJCS starts.

    FWIW - I think this is the best Stanford has played offensively since Andrew Luck. Defensively this may be their worst team since early Harbaugh.

    Over is the play.

    Yes of course that is why the line didn't come out until Friday.

    Reading into CP's press conference...I think Browning starts.

    I don't know how much it matters with how inept the UW offense is with Browning in there. No matter who is starting the game plan should be to pound the rock.
