Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

UW's 1977 scrimmages

Went 1-3. Lots of fucktards back then as well that said UW had hired the wrong coach (1977 being his third season).
Loss -- Miss St @‌ home 27-18
Win -- San Jose St @‌ 24-3
Loss --@ Syracuse 22-20
Loss --@ Minn. 19-17

Huskies beat Oregon the next week when the REAL season started, Went 6-1 in conference and beat Mich in the Rose Bowl 27-20. Finished 10th in the country. Lots of scrimmage season twisting going on.

    FYI...Oregon wasn't part of the real schedule in 77'.

    Because internet. Sitting back and waiting doesn't make for good internet fodder.

    I hear you. It wasn't meant to be taken literally. I'm just amazed some can't call it what it was, a shitty performance. It was a bad performance regardless of who was coaching. If Sark was still our coach, everyone here who still cared about the football team would be up in arms over it. Since Peterman is our coach, some refuse to criticize anything. I get it. Petersen is a great coach and he has earned that trust by going 93-12. I have complete trust in what he is doing and honestly an 8 win season wouldn't change that. He deserves time. That doesn't change the fact that we played awful and it was disappointing to watch.

    When people start rolling out this stat, watch out. I'm not saying it's doomsday time at all, I'm just saying,.... this stat is another surreptitious way of saying so-and-so is just like Don James, and it never comes out that way.

    You are right, but if we lose one of these scrimmages, I am going to drink myself to death anyway.

    That game was very disappointing to watch. I expected much more from the Huskies. Still, anyone who has watched college football for any length of time knows that the first game of the season has the potential to be a real turd burger. And that was one full on shit filled turd burger of a game. In the end, they did manage to limp to a win, which was the only real positive takeaway. I think we all know the Armenian used car salesman would have found a way to lose that game. I do expect to see a big jump up in the level of play this week, but the season started in LIFPO mode and will stay that way until the team establishes itself, one way or the other.
