    That game has the potential for a Stanford 2016 atmosphere if everything lines up for us. Sparty will likely be ranked in the top 10 but they're beatable for sure.
    if Husky Stadium isn't sold out, loud, and rocking for that game then it's pea patch time
    It won’t be sold out. It won’t be rocking. Get your hoe ready.
    It won't be sold out but it will be relatively loud

    Sparty fans are kinda noisy.

    Seriously, it’s been a long time since Husky Stadium has been anything special when it comes to crowds and noise.

    Vax passports alone will shave off 20% of the crowd.

    Definitely addition by subtraction. Darwin is our friend.

    I don’t mean that UW is going to win either. I gotta see us play first. I’m just saying the Michigan State fans will be crying about giving Tucker 9.5 million in two years.

    Michigan state has two billionaire boosters (one of whom is paying tucker’s salary) far and above anything that UW has. I don’t think they’ll care at all.

    Just weird that you’re criticizing Tucker (who’s accomplished way more than kdb at the fbs level) and Thorne (who is a better qb than anyone at UW, including penix).
    I don’t know anything about Michigan State’s financials. When they have peaked at 9-10 wins and are basically Wisconsin or a slightly better Iowa, fans will be pissed about their coach getting 9.5 million to do an average to above average job.

    You a big Sparty fan? You are awfully touchy about an opinion on Michigan State. I’m admittedly a Doog, but I never said we are easily beating Michigan State. It’s far from a sure loss either tho. They aren’t Bama.

    Of course they are and Michigan State paid up so that Tucker wouldn’t bolt. He’s in the top 5 for coaching salaries in CFB, which to me, is kind of ridiculous for a guy that has had one good season and got beat by 50 against Ohio State.

    Calling my shot right now. We will win this game and should win. We have home field and we have more talent than them. It's in the middle of the September but a vast majority students should be on campus. Husky Stadium will be 90% full.

    Him getting nfl level money is fucking stupid. The Michigan state got fucked raw dawg by Tucker’s agent. Also 10 year fucking deal, is just madness.
