    You know it’s bad when there is zero b-roll or mention of UW in ESPN’s College Gameday intro — and there’s like 40 snippets of Oregon and several other PAC teams, including fucking Stanford.

    UW doesn’t know shit about marketing.

    I agree UWs marketing dept. sucks but there’s no correlation between these things
    I think there definitely is. ESPN doesn’t create these intros in a vacuum. They cater to the intended audience and, right now, that audience doesn’t include UW fans — at least not to a significant extent.

    If UW did even an average job of marketing its football program, ESPN would care. They don’t. Not even with the Seattle market being a pretty choice one.

    The amount of airtime the 8th ranked team in the nation gets is a joke. And it’s not because of objective journalism. It’s largely because UW is shitty at marketing itself.

    Probably going to push for a location with an outdoor patio

    You’re going to roll a what??

    Rumors are that nobody has ever seen me and Grama in the same place or village at the same time

    ESPN hates us. Who gives a shit.

    We are Fox or bust now

    Next year, sure. But the team isn’t going to be as good next year. This is the year to capitalize and by most accounts this far, they’re fucking it up.

    Beating BSU and Tulsa isn't exactly going to get the hype train rolling. It's starts with beating MSU and throttling Oregon at home to start peddling Heisman and playoff talk....meh
