    Sirmon at FB is baffling. The guy lacks physicality at LB. What would make him a good FB other than he can probably catch?

    If our starting receivers had been catching balls from only Eason since January 2nd then I think we win this game. I know CP has a soft spot for beta NorCal QBs (he was one) but his stupid choice to give Haener reps cost us Sunday morning

    How come the 2.5 hour delay didn’t affect Cal?

    Again, whacky conditions are an equalizer that always favors the underdog.

    It significantly lessened the HFA, for one thing.

    Not saying it didn’t impact Cal, don’t twist. But I guarantee you Wilcox was praying that game would still be played and as late as possible.

    Cal was better prepared for everything anyway

    I know I was, and I'm a militant agnostic
    I cursed God after this game and I’m a militant atheist.

    We did not lose to fucking Cal because of recruiting...

    Its fucking Cal, not Ohio State or Alabama

    UW has a massive talent advantage and If Pete needs "more bullets" to beat fucking Cal than he isnt the guy.
    I'd give Pete somewhat of a pass on this. I know one loss in college football is much worse than any other sport, but that game was just strange in general. You had a 2 1/2 hour weather delay that basically sucked the life out of the stadium. The clock management at the end was laughable, he did the same crap against Ohio State in the Rose Bowl, and that notorious home game against Oregon (26-20 loss) as well. I know I'm throwing out the doog agenda (circumstances, young team, etc.) But given it being a late start with all the crap added to it, I'd suck it up and move on.
    Quick question, how was Cal able to win the game with all the life sucked out of the stadium?

    That’s the point.

    If not for snow, Leach would have taken Pete’s plunger like every other year.

    2023 will be special! Now I know why people get so hooked on TBS'ing. There's always the hope and allure of two years from now.

    I didn't need to since I already addressed this.

    Massive deviations from normal conditions are great equalizers and play into the hands of the underdogs (see also WSU outscoring us while it was actually snowing last year).

    I said “part of the reason” you idiot.
    And I said its not part of any reason on why UW lost to Cal you smoothed brained mongoloid.

    (insert your inevitable retard butterfly effect type bullshit in response here)

    On the list of actual reasons why UW lost TO FUCKING CAL, recruiting is ranked somewhere between @DerekJohnson and his dad being at the stadium and the fact they removed gendered pronouns from the UW fight song.
    How is it not part of the reason? If you don’t think it’s even part of the reason you’re more retarded than I thought. We don’t lose that game if we have Stephen Carr, Wyatt Davis, D.J. Johnson, Marlon Tuli, Tyler Vaughns, Michael Pittman etc.
    The 15,000 other fuckups > than some hypothetical savior recruits

    nice to know that when you tried to backtrack/clarify by saying "part of the reason" you meant if we had a few specific recruits UW would have won though.
    Thanks. You make so many insightful points and your opinion is so respected. I'll consider it.
