Dear lord there are some insufferable cunts on the Cuogs Rivals board. However this dude may be the dumbest. Link to thread about our whiney head coach.
https://washingtonstate.forums.rivals.com/threads/chris-petersen-whine.17324/Sure you want to beat UW, but the only way that will happen is for that talent difference to be tightened up. Nobody can look at that talent difference and apart from the rivalry aspect think that there would be a different result.
While this accounts for some of WSU's losses to UW, this doesnt account for ALL of WSU's losses.
Sometimes it was UW wanting it more then WSU.
Also WSU would have either won or at least had a closer, more competitive games if it wasnt for:
1. Injuries: If Bender hadnt had to play, Falk may have beat the huskies.
2. If Falk has not regressed, he may have beat the huskies.
3. If the weather hadnt been what it was Minshew would have probably beat the Huskies.
UW having the more NFL players team, a partial reason why UW win, but UW was still GETTING LUCKY, seemed to always take advantage of WSU BAD LUCK.
Take away that, and WSU probably beat the Huskies, at least 1 time.
Also the problem about saying the UW has more NFL players thing, is it can CREATE EXCUSES.
I mean going by that thinking, WSU shouldnt even play UW, should just Forfeit, give UW the AUTOMATIC win, WHY? BECAUSE UW HAS MORE NFL PLAYERS
F THAT
Doesnt matter how many more NFL players UW has, WSU can beat them, if they show up to play, and stop having the BS BAD LUCK BOUNCES, ETC.
I mean if go by number of NFL players, then WSU should be losing to almost everybody in the conference, because almost everybody in the conference has more NFL players then WSU.
So while there is some truth to what your saying as to the reason why UW beat WSU, its not the whole truth.
If WSU loses to UW, you usually get the following responses as to why.
In no particular order:
1. UW has more NFL players etc. Already showed why this is partially true, partially false
2. WSU not show up: partially true, partially false
3. WSU coaching is to blame: Mostly false
4. WSU just UNLUCKY, mostly true.
But the real truth is that the reason why WSU lose to UW, is because of a combination of the above reasons.
WSU, Leach, will beat the Huskies, the bad luck things like the weather, Bender, back up QB's having to play, bad bounces, etc, will stop, and when that happens WSU will beat UW no matter if UW have 25 invited to NFL combine or not

This would be my advice to WSU as well

Until we beat them again, we don’t have much room to make fun of their coach or team.
We aren’t defined by a conference game.
WSU's offense is built around the QB getting the shit kicked out of him. Uncle Rico is the first QB to make it through a season at WSU in a very long time. You will get hit in this offense and probably break a rib. Good luck!
Falk regressing??? See above statement
The weather....as another esteemed poster on here said...."only the Coug can blame home field advantage on the weather."
They actually outscored UW in the heavy snow.....
Washington has better players??? Yes...that is very true. They have had better players for over 100 years and always will. That's why this series is beyond lopsided.
So we haven't beat them in a while...big deal. They're still a bunch of elitist snobs. The scoreboard doesn't change that.
He sounds fulfilled.

I see you going 7-5 next year. You do get most of your tough games at home and because of the soft early schedule, you'll be 4-0 and ranked #12 in the country when USC knocks you off. The loss to Stanford will put you at the outside edge of the Top 25 and the loss to Oregon will finish you off. You play Utah late enough that their QB may be injured (again), but I still say you lose. Cougs finally get the monkey off our backs and win the AC.
How do you feel about this year.....or are you still too much of a pussy to say anything?
My eyes have been opened. Luck has been unfair to them. They have deserved more luck against us.
I laughed.
Redman dunked on him repeatedly, the term coog really is the original
The talent difference has not been as significant with Oregon/ Stanford for example in terms of NFL caliber players and that is why WSU broken through with those teams. Also I do not think the talent difference with UW will be as significant in the future as it has been . If you think that they will continue to have years where they send 9 players to the combine then it will be rough.
Apparently WSU fans haven’t gotten the memo that the talent level is actually going up now.
The AC is now the dogs biggest game. Not ours
Kurt speaks the truth.
