Browning has never faced Stanford

    If Stanford was fully healthy I wouldn't be optimistic about Brownings ability to step up in this game, because their secondary is the strength of the defense this year. But both of Stanfords starting corners got injured against UCLA, and are questionable for the game Friday. If they're out, I like our chances a lot better.

    Daniels will have to have a big game regardless... UCLA's TE was the only receiver who had a halfway decent game cause the ILBs of Stanford aren't good in coverage. If he's dropping shit like he usually does its gonna absolutely kill the pass game.

    We lost these games last year because the O couldn't sustain drives and the D was on the field too long. Stanford, Oregon, and especially Utah fall into that category, some because of bad QBing, lots because of a POS receiving corps that allowed opposing D's to cheat up and bottle up the offense.

    Jake has better, more reliable targets this year, and looks a little stronger, but still not strong enough to throw darts on crossing routes, so, why the fuck do we even call those plays on 3rd downs and such? Same old problem of designing and calling plays that don't fit your athletes and talent on the field. I fucking hate that stupid shit more than anything the dawgs do.

    I'll go with the Dawgs on this one, based largely on what I watched the Hawks do to SF last Sunday. I.e., if they can put it all together and play to their potential, they can beat Stanford by 2 or 3 scores. If not - and this is what Stanford is counting on - our immaturity will amp up our nerves, cause us to do stupid shit like draw dumb penalties, force throws, or fumble the ball in the red zone or on punt returns, and the offense will implode, handing away the game to Stanford.

    UW has more talent than Stanford. Game is ours? to Lose.

    For some time now Stanford has been the only team in the conference that has "next man up" depth. Don't count on injuries to slow them down that much.

    I hope Browning goes 11 for 13 for 230 yards as Gaskin runs for 190 and our DAWGS win rather easily and I have to do up downs for doubting him

    This is the realest poast in this history of this craphole bored.

    You know how the Script plays out after that though?
