Washington beats Cal 28-21 to up its record to 6-2. Through a series of Seinfeld references we determine that its a 6-2 that feels like a 4-4. Try as we might to be positive, we also had to point out the things that are wrong or concerning. It turns out to be a pod that has a bit of everything. Shout outs include the UW offensive line, Leon Neal, Regan Schenck, Cage Schenck, @Houhusky, @PostGameOrangeSlices, @GrundleStiltzkin, @Logistics, @RaceBannon, @haie, @1to392831weretaken, @LawDawg1, @SonnyShackelford, @TheHB, @HHBruh, @Fire_Marshall_Bill, and @hardhat.

    Yeah, the Jaydn Ott stuff is hilarious. He had one blistering game against the worst defense in the conference, to where averaging 90 yards a game actually shows how pedestrian he is at best.

    A ton, TON of these guys were just massive whiffs by the Petersen staff.

    Dom Hampton, Julius Irvin, Asa, Cam Williams, etc were supposed to be the next great group of dbs along with Gordon and McDuffie. It's not even a development thing, they don't have the same mentality as Jones, King, Baker, even Rapp as a freshman.

    San Jose’s DC Derrick Odom is intriguing. SJSU played Auburn really tough and I doubt anyone of us thinks we could hold Auburn to 24 points.

    Commentary on Oregon recruiting was spot on. Their advantage of UW is more mental than anything as most of their new standouts like Gonzalez, Nix, Bucky, Cota are portal transfers.

    As long we’re healthy we’ll play Oregon well enough. We get up for that game..even last season when we had zero confidence we played a half hard and then realized it wasn’t gonna happen and went in the tank.

    This team is mentally soft and the Coaches are complicit. You don’t make a Portal transfer a Captain. Period. They have to earn it and look at the JAGness of our portal transfers as testament to why

    Loved the commentary about the primma Donna players and horrible portal decisions. Today 5 star players are as much about program marketing as much as hoping to field impact players. JTT struggles at OSU, Bynum incomprehensible transfer to stacked WR corps at USC. The college football graveyard is littered with the bones of once promising players that snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.

    “You only remember the games in November”. I get the sense that Penix was playing for stats a bit. I remember the magic at Indiana where he threw a lot of 50/50 balls up. 4 games to go…let them fly. The QB achievement stats prize has been unlocked.

    Oregon is only -12 at Cal this week. I think our spread in a few weeks will be under 10. If the weather is good we have a decent shot to win.

    Take all the screenshots you need

    I think UW will favored by more than 3 against the Beavers. We're just not a good matchup for them. They're not strong in the passing attack. Last year they just ran the blueprint and ran over us like all other teams did but this year the UW is stout against the run. They're not going to get enough on the ground and they're not going to be able to make it up in their. Provided the weather doesn't absolutely suck UW pulls away mid 3rd qtr.

    Oregon has a well documented Wilcox problem. It will be a close game

    Listened to podcast: I got a DeBoner about San Jose State's DC, who is having a very good year. Alas, it didn't last four hours because I looked at West Coast Sparty's defensive stats from 2016-2021 (Derrick Odum's tenure as DC).

    Not impressive.

    Does Dwayne Washington have any idea of the profound legacy he lent to Hardcore Husky?

    @DerekJohnson

    Thanks for the shoutout. The line has been better than I expected in pass pro. Run blocking still needs some work. Short yardage situations are iffy

    @RaceBannon can issue a formal apology to Huff

    The problems with the running game on Saturday were all on the running backs and not the line. The run blocking was outstanding. I'm starting to wonder about our RB coach.

    I get what you're saying but we've been watching UW running backs run into the designed hole whether it's there or not since Gaskin graduated. Good running backs find the creases that are created in the melee of a play and not necessarily where the play is drawn up to go. The transfer RB's are here for a reason and all the holdovers were scouted by the same coach who loved him some crazy skeletons and RC cars. Not sure any coach can fix bad vision. Effort, ball security and blocking? Sure.

    It's a really small sample, but Kenneth Walker is a great example of a back who has vision and can make the line look better than it really is. Running backs are born with an ability to be great -- or they're named Tualapapa.

    It’s true.

    It’s also helpful to have some sort of freakish skill like power, speed or agility. You can then put them in a place to succeed at least situationally.

    Our running backs do not seem to have any of that and their vision and feel for space sucks.

    UW running backs are almost able to take what is spoon fed to them. Sometimes Cam Davis gets going forward with a head of steam and takes what he's given. The others can't seem to manage that.

    Gaskin would average 6+ yards per carry in this offense. He would be making a huge difference.
