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

Passing game

Our wr’s after one off season with DeBoer’s staff can suddenly catch the ball and play with confidence.

They have their reads down on when to do a back shoulder and it’s nearly impossible to stop with an accurate ball from BPE. This is exactly what Fresno executed perfectly last year.

Multiple times penix knew exactly where to prior to the snap and baited the defense. I have not seen confidence like that from our qb in a long time.

Coaching matters. I still think the secondary will cost us a number of games, but they should get 8 or 9 wins.

    If we only win 5 more games I might kill myself.

    All our tough games are on the road. It’s a weird schedule. But don’t kill yourself.

    Yeah 5-4 rest of the way would seem like a disaster right now. I think 7-2 is realistic, but this D might make that challenging.

    Stanford, Oregon state, Arizona. Colorado is all that's left. And we still have 2 weeks left in September.

    Historical this week against Stanford when set up this way has been a problem. Colorado is JV. Arizona not too much better. Oregon state hasn't been tested but damn near lost to Fresno.

    On the road ASU should be a win, but again, historically going down there has given UW problems. I think UW IS 2-12 vs ASU over the last 29 years (I was there many times, but 2017 was a killer).

    October and November will tell us a lot about DeBoer. Very challenging schedule IMO

    Yeah, it sucks but he's also playing in an offense that is putting up 77 points and he likely goes pro after next year

    The defense is much better than you boomers are acting like it is. The Defensive Line is the best in the conference by quite a bit.

    Our best corner is coming back next week. The DL can hide the corner issue.

    I’ll just toss this out there, but no fucking way OSU puts up 77 points on Michigan State

    What happens if Penix goes down?

    I know, I know that will never happen with a qb who is known for his durability.

    Worry about it if it happens. We will suck without him so no point wringing hands about it.

    Yeah. Garbage time. Up by 11, other team with the ball in Husky territory, 7 minutes left.

    You're retarded. Kill yourself.

    There was 3:50 left in the game when they were down 11. Facts> Damone's faggotry.

    This is the moment they scored to cut the lead to 11



    This is when they got the ball back



    And they never crossed the 50 on the last drive




    Nuff said on that

    I said 7 minutes and they crossed the 50. Well excuuuuuuse me. It was over 4 minutes and they were on the 47. The point remains. It's not garbage time. The road to hell is paved with teams up by 11 with 4 minutes left and losing.

    I don’t think it was prevent. I just think we suck at coverage. Hopefully they get better but they will face better offenses than that.

    I'm confident the secondary will get better. It's not like our secondaries in the recent past tho. I don't even think they were terrible yesterday. Michigan State had to convert 4th downs and did not have an easy drive until the 4th quarter. The drive Sparty had in the 2nd half wasn't terribly difficult but they did have to convert a 4th and 6. The whole team played shitty in the 4th quarter. Pass rush wasn't as strong, offense lost their tempo in order to run out the clock, and the coverage was bad. Completions and yards are going to happen when our CB's don't play 10 yards deep with two safeties 30 yards deep. And the talent isn't great there.
