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

What is everyone afraid of?



Lost to WSU
Won a shootout with Cal
Lost to Arizona
Close game recently against Colorado

Autist for head coach.

Good running back. QB play has been good. They just don't have the bullets.

Another close win...but we win by maybe 10-14.

    *We really shouldn't be. There's this sickly feeling brought on by underwhelming victories that has shaken confidence. It kind of feels like a stumble is inevitable.

    Truth is that losing at OSU would be a stumble. They have no business beating UW imo.

    15-1 at home

    Beav is top 10. It will be a good litmus test to determine if our dawgs are for real

    If we don’t think our dawgs are for real at this point, they’re not.

    I like our dawgs in an atmospheric river cyclone bomb.

    They don't scare me.

    We do. It's just not a complete team. You can have a weakness, but not for half the positions.

    UW is clearly much better than beav. But they do have an elite OL and run game which is the formula for pulling an upset against a superior team with a high-scoring offense.

    Run the ball, run the clock, limit the total # of possessions and 1-2 key plays (turnovers or penalties) can decide the entire game. Same game theory you see in March madness where mid majors slow it down and try to keep games in the 50s.

    The more possessions there are, talent tends to win out more often than not.

    UW’s defense still ripe for being manhandled.

    Beavs have an "Elite OL".

    Elite OL -vs- Utah:

    QB Sacked 3x

    Does not pass look test of Elite OL. They do have a balanced attack and seem productive running and throwing the ball. Elite OL. No.

    Reser Stadium has hosted 1 top 10 matchup in its history.

    #8 OSU 23, #5 Oregon 13
    Aka the game that sent our 2000 Dwags of War to the Rose Bowl.

    The following year, our 8th ranked defending Rose Bowl champs rolled in to Reser 7-1 having just beaten top 10 Stanford, and with a path to the BCS due to games remaining against top 10 Cuog and #1 the U.

    An underachieving Beav whooped us 49-24 and that was that.

    I’m petrified they’ll be all greased up and pull off something like in 2001.

    Utah was much better with Barton at linebacker.

    Ken Simonton isn’t walking through that door anytime soon and Jonathan Smith has no eligibility remaining.

    I'm terrified of a salty beaver. It's going to be a nail-biter, we will keep winning until we don't. I think the defense will tighten things up on Saturday and continue to make timely stops. Penix will have one helluva game, take screenshots now

    How are they salty though? They've had the easiest schedule up to this point. Lost the only real opponent they played, and they got Utah and UCLA early when they were still trying to figure things out at QB. This beavlet team probably has 4-5 losses with last year's schedule.

    UW played loose in Eugene last year, DeBoer gets it done with some style points Saturday.

    Benji got fucked up by that Beaver in Season 9. Probably has something to do with no freezer and eating week old meat that was rotting.

    Beav really reminds me of a Peterlips team

    Smith is partying likes it's 2017-2018 UW with how his beavlets play

    Pretty much this. College is about matchups and I think the beav has a lot of that going on for this game.

    Atbs I think the Penix mightier and rolls.

    I think Washington is more talented, much better at QB, more well coached and impossibly better suited to win if it turns into a shootout. Still, it's college football, going to be shitty cold weather in the last Pac-12 game in Reser before they get left behind, and they probably blame UW for it. They could lose. That's college football.

    Before the season started my thought on Beav was that their defense was going to take a big step backwards and that would be their downfall. Sticking with that and a win for the Dawgs with some defensive momentum from the second half against a Utah team who, in theory, should have provided a decent glimpse at what they face this weekend.

    UW - 38
    Beav - 27
