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

I've got a good feeling about this game

    The Race Bannon has visioned a Husky champions on ducks every year since we got the interwebs in Istanbul. This year will makes it 0-3, very nice.

    That is a widespread misconception. It's true in the early days of the pod cast when we would proclaim UW had better talent but...Ty...but UW wins! By Sark we had abandoned all hope. Oregon's talent and coaching edge were too big and obvious. Oregon still has a far bigger talent edge than most Huskies posting here will admit. I thought the position breakdowns earlier this week were way out of whack. Oregon is better almost everywhere but coaching,

    Make no mistake, a Husky win would be a huge upset. But they happen every week
    Maybe under Chip, your beliefs about the talent gap would be true. From what I've seen, there isn't a large gap. I would take UW's roster over Oregon's excluding QB. There is also a huge gap at RB. UW has a substantially better front 7, the slightly better out of the dreckfest OL's.
    I'd like this to be true but I have to see it. Oregon has out recruited UW for some time now. They are deeper and we don't have a bell cow on the O line like Fisher. Petersen is the game changer for sure, but this year? We will see
    I think UW is or two years away yet. After that, the tables will be turned. Oregon is on its way to down. Not to the level they were, but will be down quite a bit.

    Talking about the ten wins in a row a false narrative. It doesn't tell the whole story. UW went through the worst stretch in their history while Oregon went though it's best. The odds of that happening were low and even lower in the future. Shit, most teams had a several game win streak going against UW, it wasn't that hard. Add to that Oregon was beating everyone. I think they have a 10-2 record against UCLA since 2000. In 2006 and 2007 Oregon was average. But UW sucked ass. In the Sark years, UW was average, but Oregon was at the top of their game. It's been a while since both teams were either both petty good, or pretty shitty at the same time.
    We know it couldn't possibly be the case, but it's almost like Oregon hiring Chip Kelly and UW hiring Willingham had more to do with the lopsided onfield results of late than a random pick-6 in 1994.

    I want to believe we can pull a win out, but I have to see it to believe it. Next year I think the tables will have definitely turned in our favor. Prepare for mass suicides off the I-5 bridge crossing the Columbia, if we win.

    What about the I-5 bridge across the Willamette? I think that's a lot higher and more lethal.

    I'm doogin' so hard on this game.

    We've improved week by week in all areas of perceived deficiency (fire kwitikoski anyone? ) and i expect the best version of Petersen's huskies to arrive in autzen.

    I think this throw back 20 year anniversary gives us some weird juju, and our northwest frost get up is filthy.

    I really think danny Shelton is about to cement himself as a first rounder. I think he is going to murder the stoner lined up across him and fuck this game up for the classy Hawaiian mariota.

    Clearly i haven't slept in 48 hours.

    @RaceBannon‌'s mojo hasn't been on point since he predicted the 3-and-6 2010 Huskies to win out and become bowl-eligible, much to the shock of iDawg. He deserves credit, did anyone actually believe that smug confidence behind the 1980s Yugoslavian cell phone?

    Race deserves credit, but there's a little myth involved there. If you go listen to the episodes, when we were 3-6 he predicted they would lose out. When we won and were 4-6, he predicted they would finish 6-6.

    That's Auburndoog territory right there.

    Of the last 11 years, this is UW's best chance to win. OR's Oline is beat up, WA's D line is big and strong. UW's O isn't very good, but Oregon's D is worse than it has been in all 11 meetings. Petersen is the best coach UW has had in the 11 meetings; OR has a new(er) HC, OC and DC.... OR lost at home to AZ...

    The spread is too high.
