    This was from December, but didn't watch until today. Taylor Rapp's video series from the Rams. This one is like a 7 minute recruiting video for UW and BFL.

    I don’t hate Rapp as much as some of you, but the Rose Bowl will always bother me. It would have been a close game if he played. Those TD’s and a couple conversion were with McKinney directly in coverage.

    McKinney sucks and got beat out by true freshmen the next year. We had a FCS caliber player playing in the Rose Bowl. In hindsight, Myles Bryant should have played safety and Molden at nickel. That would have also given us a better shot.

    I know some of you think Ohio State let up, but that’s stupid. It happens, but they weren’t not trying. UW converted a bunch of 4th downs and had some big plays on defense.

    Ohio State blows teams out all the time. Not really Meyer or their programs MO to let up. UW adjusted and played way better on defense. It wasn’t as close as the score indicated, but Ohio State did need to recover on onside kick to finish the game.

    Bullshit. That embarrassing ass-kicking contest was over by halftime.

    Does that seriously say fucking radio? Do they know the tv and inter webs were invented? Wtf

    Edit: I’m 37 and have some nostalgia but this feels like another swing and a miss by the marketing team. I need old AF’s to weigh in here.

    If it’s radio only, it’s a huge miss. How about promoting great games from the 80’s and 90’s and putting them online for the younger generation. You might be able to get a few new young fans that way or make casual fans more interested and wanting to buy some tickets and gear for next year.

    Nobody, even old folks are listening to replays on radio. Fire up the Rondeau radio broadcasts along with video and out that shit online.
    I'm 40 and I drive an hour a day to my job at the grocery store. I may check out a 60 minute replay instead of listening to a book on occasion. Something different to break up my week. Hopefully this is just the beginning of trying to connect the past with the present. Taking advantage of every social media outlet is a must on the front. I'm not holding out hope for that though.

    It is well known that Peyton Manning did not win a natty at UT and I think only beat Florida once. He was a coach on the field and lived in the film room so I am sure they loaded up the playbook.

    Then he leaves and a natural talent takes over who you wouldn't want your daughter to marry so they simplify and run the ball and win the natty

    Simple is better

    Except it wasn’t and they needed to recover an onside kick to finish the game. But still.. I’m sure that was because Ohio State wanted it to be a close game. Yes, we were getting our ass kicked at halftime. Two TD’s were on Rapp. If those are FG’s instead, it’s a different game. There were probably other plays too outside the TD’s where McKinney fucked us.

    I didn’t say we would have won, but a few of those plays probably wouldn’t have been made if Rapp was playing.

    By your logic, UW let up against Stanford the same year when we dominated most the game and were up 21-0 and they came back. Natural let up happens when a team is ahead sometimes, but to think Ohio State was just running the ball and eating clock is FS. Or that they were allowing 4th down conversions because they weren’t trying. It’s stupid.
    28-3 after 3 Quarters. To suggest UW accomplished anything significant outside mop-up time is FS Doogie BS of the Highest Order.

    Stop Dooging, Roady. You're starting to sound like Chest and his "but we had more yards" logic.

    Scoreboard Doogs. Scoreboard.

    We aren’t David. We put tons of guys in the NFL. When we were David, we went 12-2 and played Bama. We got worse as we got more Goliath’s (mostly overrated, low 4 star recruits). If you expect UW to out recruit Ohio State, you’re going to be forever disappointed.

    Referring to game plans and play-calling, not recruiting. UW was Goliath within the Pac12 when they went 12-2, because UW clicked on both sides of the ball that season. But UW was David in comparison to Bama, Penn State and OSU where the law of averages always favored Goliath.

    David = Trickery, deception, and doing the unexpected to stay in the game and maybe steal it. Think Pete's Fiesta Bowl win vs. Oklahoma. David won that one, but no other NY6 Bowl contests thereafter.
