Here is the fantasy. The Duck defense comes together today and gets tired of getting their assets kicked and holds UW to 24 to 27ish points. A true freshman QB from a cross the street comes in and gets the Oregon offense back in balance with Royce Freeman doing the dirty work. Oregon wins by 17, Slingblade saves his job for another year, and the Husky fan base committs mass suicide.
The reality is UW rushes for 7 yards per carry, Browning hits a few throws over the top, and UW scores with ease in the red zone. That true freshman QB the Ducks are starting gets hit 20+ times over the course of the game, Freeman gets minimal carries because of really stupid play calling, and the special teams let Ross make a couple of big returns.
During the anomaly, we weren't fast enough to play their game, we weren't strong enough to overpower them and we weren't well coached enough to have a clue how to attempt to compensate.
We are faster than we've been in almost 20 years, we're stronger than we've been in almost 20 years and this is our best overall staff since the James era (though Neuheisel was actually a great game day coach).
I suspect a mobile QB could be problematic as may Freeman.
But if we can't just ravage that defense I'll be disappointed.
It'll be interesting to see how Sling plays us. They tried 5 DBs vs the Cuogs without much success.

Totally agree. 2007-2015 was by far the best Duck stretch in history. They never won fewer than nine games. I don't think any of their delusional fans saw it coming in 2005 or 2006. They aren't sniffing nine this year. That coincided with the worst stretch of Husky football since probably the 40s or 50s (maybe '65-'76).
The Huskies are finally getting back to a position in which they can push them around again.

UW wins this one rather easily, say 34-17.

The only hope is that we get Tyrell Crosby and Troy Dye back this week. But it won't be enough to overpower the fucktardedness
