    Rose Bowls look fun. Why don't the Huskies go those instead of Las Vegas And Meineke Car Care bowls?

    Going to top tier bowl games would require the coaching staff to be stubborn with the run and not call 62 pass plays per game. How boring would that be?

    Cool story. But here are the facts.

    - 873 plays from scrimmage in 2015
    - 396 passing attempts
    - 476 rushing attempts

    Moving the QB sacks and scrambles from rushing to passing attempts, it's about a 50/50 run/pass mix, with around 35 pass attempts/game.

    What's the run/pass ratio for losses?
    Or run/pass ratio when the score was within 14 points?

    That was the game that made me a huge Husky fan. We went to my uncle's house in Centralia to watch it. He was a huge, tuff guy that was loud as fuck. He told me if he caught me cheering for any other college team, he'd bury me with his backhoe. My old man went to the U of Illinois, so he hated the Wolverines and was pulling for UW, too.

    The pick by Michael Jackson made the whole house go nuts.

    We (?) need to get this program unfucked and get back to winning games like that.

    Really poor access road to the Rose Bowl. Sam Boyd Stadium in Vegas way easier exit.

    What, because I like the sound Gabe Mark's ankle makes when it gets twisted 100+ degrees on crisp fall days at HS while drinking lukewarm Redhook in the Zone?
