    8 sacks
    How many of those sacks ended a series though? Too many seemd to happen only for Stanford to make a 3rd and long play after.
    A couple of them did. O/U is 3.

    If we’re? bashing sacks, I’m out!

    8 sacks or No sacks is the answer to every concern

    So far the team has been comfortably in control of every game after the 1st quarter.

    Never once has it felt like UW isn't a lion toying with a gazelle...in the first half

    As a result, the team has seemed to be sleepwalking a little bit at time in the second half.

    Would love to see them keep up the intensity for all 4 quarters. In every game so far UW was fully capable of hanging 60 on teams.

    Hopefully we will start having some of those 2016 @ Cal type games

    Lions don’t toy with Gazelles. It doesn’t work that way. Cat/mouse is what you’re looking for.

    Some one needs to tell that to deBoner.

    I agree with this but even on the sacks where Stanford converted a 3rd & long, I think the sacks had a cumulative effect on the QB.

    that happened twice. The sky isn't falling. It'll even out. We had 2 strip sacks and fumble recoveries in the game.

    Didn't say it was. I'm actually very happy with watching this team actually progress and get better(it seems) each game.

    That said, the secondary is still definitely how to beat this defense. I was worried that with Stanford so far behind they would give up the rpo and just start slinging it deep.

    I'll take a win any day.

    Just some quick observations though. It did seem that Grubb was maybe trying some things out. Seems he wanted to make sure he included plays to Gyles, almost like forcing it. Turned out in the end he did get a TD.

    I will say It feels a lot better complaining about the way the team won than the way it lost.

    I think I might actually go to the game on Friday. UW needs to smash the "sissy blue shirts".
