As for the safety situation against Arizona, Petersen said Monday that “we’ll rotate guys.” Defensive coordinator Jimmy Lake added later in the week that “we’ve got a number of things that we can do. We have a number of players that are itching to play and have earned the right to go get some snaps. We’ll see how that goes as we move forward.”GrundleStiltzkin said:
Interesting concept: replace a player who continues to make mistakes with other players to see if someone else can make plays.
I wonder if it could be applied to the offense. -
In the past four years, the Huskies are 7-0 in games immediately following a loss.
That winning streak will be put to the test Saturday at Arizona (4-1, 2-0), which has recently been a difficult place for the Huskies. Before its 35-28 overtime win in 2016, Washington had lost four straight games at Arizona Stadium while being outscored 171-71.
Petersen said last week’s deflating defeat in the Bay Area was a “wake-up call” for many Huskies.
“They’re trying to make plays,” he said. “They really, really are, and sometimes I think it goes to a little bit of not finishing. It’s ‘I got to make this play.’ And we don’t quite finish. So maybe that’s the thing that can kind of wake you up.”
Yes, but was it a wake up call for the coaches? Because this shit isn’t about players executing. It’s about coaches running a shit offense. -

Vorel’s prediction
Let’s get one thing straight: the transitive property doesn’t work in college football. USC beat Stanford, and Washington beat USC. So the Huskies should have clobbered the Cardinal last weekend, right? Wrong. Very, very wrong. Still, 4-1 Arizona did drop its season-opener at Hawaii — a program UW thumped 52-20 on Montlake a few weeks later. The Wildcats have rebounded to win four straight, and senior quarterback Khalil Tate looks again like a dual-threat dynamo. But who did those wins come against? Northern Arizona, Texas Tech, UCLA and Colorado. That’s not exactly the ’27 Yankees lineup of early season schedules. Still, Washington’s defense has struggled mightily to stop the run in Pac-12 play, and Arizona ranks second in the conference in both rushing offense (221 yards per game) and yards per carry (5.67). Translation: the home team will put up points. But I also think the Husky offense will respond against more middling competition. Chris Petersen is just 1-3 in games played in the state of Arizona while with Washington, but that won’t matter on Saturday night.
Final score: Huskies 35, Wildcats 31 -
Win this game, get ranked for next weekend.
