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

A B C out of conference scheduling

The C stands for Coug.

Coug is about to become our 1st week of September replacement for Portland State.

    We'll probably end up with week 0 conference games to accommodate the apple cup being on thanksgiving weekned. Same thing Clemson/SC, UF/FSU, UGA/GT all do

    This is stupid. Trying to save the apple cup is pointless. How often can they enjoy taking an ass kicking in consecutive years. They'll lose interest.

    I've never liked the Apple Cup

    UW Oregon would be far better on Thanksgiving

    Here's the other thing about Coug:

    If you guys wanted the Pac to stay together, then get everyone to agree to give UW and Oregon half the 200 million.

    None of you wanted to do that, so the conference was dead as soon as the LA schools left.

    That's what it boils down to. Thank gawd they didn't do that though. It still would've been a shit product on a shit platform and everyone would've lost.

    The bandaide is off. Another big move needs to happen that puts them with Boise, SDSU et al along with some form of TV deal. It's either shutters, or, possibly, a better outcome than at least WSU deserves. They're a perfect, natural fit with the Mtn West. The Boise-Pullman rivalry could be lit!

    Turned on KJR to listen to Puck and Jim Moore because schaudenfrede.

    Puck insists UW shouldn’t want to continue the Apple Cup. And for those who say it’s important because of tradition, he says if UW gave a shit about tradition they wouldn’t leave the PAC.

    So basically he’s saying that for UW, conference tradition is dependent upon one fucking game a year.

    Sad Cuog is the best Cuog.

    I stopped reading after "Jim Moore".
