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

U$C presents our biggest challenge...

I'm not a player on the team so I can look ahead. Watching U$C last night, I believe they present the biggest challenge because offensively, they have both a good passing game and a good running game. The huskies will have to play great defense against both -- in many of our games this year, we've been able to shut down the other team's offensive strength and force them to rely on their weakness. This won't be the case against U$C. Cal, Utah, ASU and WSU will be fine because we will be able to focus on and shut down their strength.

    They obviously have the raw talent to line up and compete with us which is unlike anyone else we play as well.

    Really glad the games at home. Thrilled it's in November. When's the last time the So Cal boys came north in November? I feel like it's been since the Lambo era at least.

    I haven't watched much SC since they switched QBs. Can Darnold run? I think a quality running QB presents the biggest challenge for this defense, especially in scrambles. I don't expect Darnold to be an athlete for obvious reasons (is let him date my daughter though!), but he i supppse he could have some Locker on him, or at least some Luck.

    USC is the best team the Huskies will play this year. They're very talented and now playing well enough to beat UW. Utah, ASU, Cal and WSU all pose threats as well, UW can lose to any of those if they don't bring their A-game. The pre-season is finally over.

    So, USC's now becomes scary b/c they beat a terrible buffs team with a backup qb, arizona, Kal and Todd fucking Graham? I'm sorry, but nothing about USC scares me with our defense and playing at home. USC was gifted a KAL team that had to play 2 games in 6 days on the road with the condoms off bye. They should fucking win by 50!

    Sure, they are putting up some numbers against the previously mentioned crew but people talk about our JV schedule, at least we? have a defense that will show up. Darnold may be a decent qb but he hasn't faced a pass rush yet, nor a team who can play man on the corners while blitzing real LB.

    If this team didn't have USC on it's shirt, nobody would be impressed at all with their effort. It sure makes me shake in my knickers when they are 1-2 on the road 1-1(road game @stanford should be counted as a home game) and have to come to husky stadium.

    Your very worst effort.

    USC's defense is undisciplined...."we" will be moving the ball at will.

    JK, obviously Pullman counts. I meant when was the last time SC played at UW (NOGAFAC) but I should have phrased it better.
