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

So I re-watched OSU game

Pros
Cyler Miles really did play well. He was throwing some great balls and really saw the field well. He looks completely different than he did at the beginning of the year. What do ya know...the WR's were open the whole time...Cyler just couldn't see them.

Perkins caught quite a few balls it seemed and will be a great weapon over the middle. Big body and can run.

RB's seemed to learn how to run after the Colorado game. Shaq may have embarrassed 'em I guess. That's how you do it boys and it looks like they all took note. They ran HARD.

Defense was flying around. The overall speed difference was glaring but that defense is having fun too. Everybody was making plays except for one position group...but that comes later.

Cons

Safety is a glaring issue. Kevin King borders on worthless and Baker got beat like a drum both times on those long passes. 3rd and 25....did Baker really think they were going to run? Later in the game they ran the same exact play and he got beat again! Feeney picked it very next play...but still.

Crowd. We walked through campus at about 3 or 3:30 and U-District was dead...E-12 dead....E-1 dead. The crowd that did show up was very late arriving....I get it..."season is over...nothing to play for." But still.

    Baker is good, he's also a true freshman. Sure, he fucked up a couple times—but this is Doog style criticism.

    "Peters has problems with the double move." Yeah, no shit.

    So you're telling me true freshmen make freshmen mistakes? Whoa. My brain is melting.

    I didn't say Baker wasn't good (he's not...he might be one day but he's not now....but I didn't say that in original post)

    I said he got beat like a drum.

    Another poaster, can't recall who at the moment, brought up the Washington and Coleman's lack of vision. We don't see a lot of cut back from either of them. If the hole is exact where and when it's supposed to be, they'll make it, but they don't seem to be able to bounce off blocks that well.

    Budda got beat a couple times. Budda also made some nice plays. Budda is inconsistent. Budda is a freshman.

    Fuck's sake man.

    Doogly analysis is doogly.

    Of course I'm worried about the safeties at WSU, but if you asked me would I be surprised if Budda had a pick six at Pullman, I would say no. Because he's not bad 'right now' - he's bad sometimes and good sometimes right now.

    He's... (wait for it) inconsistent.

    I remember at the start of the year, particularly after EWU, how UW was going to be ass raped via the air with the weak play of the secondary.

    Disagree.

    He has a couple of weaknesses but he's a damn good player already. Major lol at "he might be (good) one day".
    Damn good might be a bit strong...but hey whatevs. Just because he has the potential to be good...doesn't mean he is. He's coming along but my point of getting beat like a drum still stands.
