This season matters.
RN had his best recruiting class after sneaking out of 2000 with one loss and a solid win over a somewhat weak RB opponent. Nobody gave a fuck that there were yeah-buts, close calls, that Miami was on its way to a blowout win if there had been another quarter in that game, or that Purdue was a second tier bowl opponent. UW escaped with a #3 ranking and recruited with the big boys, similar to what happened for Oregon after 2019.
Everything matters, even somewhat dubious championships in a fucked up, shortened season. Now pardon me while I go kill myself for typing everything matters.

As @sonics1993 said all offseason, Jimmy desperately needed this season to happen to change the narrative around the direction of the program and the momentum in recruiting. So far it's going better than many anticipated despite the bland offense and struggles in run defense. If UW wins the conference and a NY6 bowl I'd place our odds of landing both JTT and EE at 81%.

A lot if disgruntled, miserable and pathetic folks out here this year. Its not hard to see why. They just need to smoke weed and jerk off and gain some perspective.EsophagealFeces said:

Somehow win out, snag those two and a surprise from somewhere, and the shit stains from the 2019 season and the overall 2020 shitshow are completely and permanently scrubbed off of UW.insinceredawg said:As @sonics1993 said all offseason, Jimmy desperately needed this season to happen to change the narrative around the direction of the program and the momentum in recruiting.

So the season matters now? That's cool!!

Nope. You have a loss and a good class already all but sealed. Plus Oregon's brand isnt as susceptible to rises and falls as UW's. It doesn't matter for Oregon, only UW.greenblood said:So the season matters now? That's cool!!

Nobody needed some sort of season like UW. Lake needed to prove he could be the head man. JonDong needed to run his offense. The young talent on hand needed an opportunity to shine. OTOH Oregon would have been fine with a season cancelation. Pac 12 title, Rose Bowl win, top ten drafted QB, recruiting sizzle. They had all the momentum. Two losses in six games paired with a UW conference title would be as close to a disaster for them as Husky fans could ask for. This abortion of a season always mattered for UW. There was never a doubt.

We were always playing with house money this season. Lose and it’s because of the coaching changes but win it all and suddenly Lake looks like the mad hatter genius.
Oregon had to be perfect to live up to the hype.
We’re 2 wins from breaking the wheel. -

Lake ball has been great so far and it seems like the team is having a blast. Pete was a great recruiter and closer that was almost universally respected, but the energy on the field is much better than it had been the past few seasons. -
Disagree. We aren’t playing with house money and we never were. If we were 1-2 right now, things would not be looking good and it would be hurting us. We would all be talking about what a disaster Lake has been. We would be mostly irrelevant. It’s way to early to crown Jimmy, but so far, so good.DawgDaze71 said:We were always playing with house money this season.

We’re 2 wins from breaking the wheel.
Instead we are 3-0, talking shit, and have multiple players playing at an All American level. We are actually a young team so going 7-0 after winning a BCS Bowl would be amazing and get some serious attention for the program.
Chuck nailed it with his initial post. This season matters a lot. Winning and playing an attractive style of football always matters. -
Jimmy needs as much positive exposure as possible. So far he's getting it and making most of the opportunity. Hopefully, weº get the rest of the games.

A lot of DOOGING here (7-0 conference champs and Fiesta Bowl victory?! Sign me up!), but a come-from-behind win from a 21-point deficit after not doing so under Pete and the misery of this entire year and offseason will do that to a bunch of irrational, impatient grown men.
I just want to crush Stanford and pay those nerds back for that miserable effort last year.
Well that, and watch that 4th quarter drive, Jimmy's postgame interview, and the SAY WHO SAY WHAT locker room video. I don't think it can be overstated how massive of a comeback that was for this team's and program's psyche. ALPHAS>>>betas. -

But...7-0 or 6-0 is out there and would be a huge shot in the arm. The transition to Lake didn't go well at all, UW suddenly can't buy respect from much of the media, and recruiting took a shit. ?We need it. -
It's weird. I felt more anxious when Petersen was coach. I loved the success and what he did for the program's respectability off the field, but for some reason I usually felt on edge. Maybe it was the expectations associated with his success at Boise State; I'm not entirely sure.Beno4Life said:A lot of DOOGING here (7-0 conference champs and Fiesta Bowl victory?!

With Lake, I feel a lot more relaxed. It's more like seeing a new puppy jumping around with great energy. No firm expectations, but certainly hope and a recognition of potential for greatness. I'm ok with a pile of shit here and there; it comes with the territory. But if we can avoid the shit, all the better.
