Why the bowl game mattered

I agree on that part. Tells me that we'll see more attrition than we were expecting.jecornel said:
I guess the biggest issue for me was it appeared from every angle of the game the huskies looked wrong. Attitude sucked, game plan sucked, tackling sucked, play calling on offense sucked, save one play special teams completely sucked.Tequilla said:Everything starts and ends with QB play when looking at the 2014 season. Period.
Those that are bitching about sending guys home for the Holidays really need to take a walk and gain some perspective. Boise did the same thing in a bigger game and had success.
If there's one big reason for concern after the game it was what you mentioned about the culture being changed and players buying in. There were a handful of players that looked like they didn't want to be there ... John Ross being the most notable example to me. It's concerning ... but at the same time we're also taking a full class and I fully expect there to be guys that are going to be moving on.
I think you're a little misguided with the QB position for that game. Williams apparently has already shown his intentions it would appear. The Swede isn't really in the competition at this point and I would expect a position change in the future. The QB probably getting the 2nd most snaps during the bowl season was Magna Carta (wouldn't shock me if Williams was asked to be the scout team QB). Not really sure that there was a backup option in that game.
In the grand scheme of things, the work that needs to be done in this program won't be better or worse off because we won or lost the game. This game would be telling in a number of ways. Some of them positive. Some of them negative. -
At the game. When Ross got benched on defense he literally sat at the end of the bench and didn't move for about 10 minutes.
Also, on offense, being at the game you could see that OSU had a safety deeper than 10 yards down the field about 3 or 4 times. It was embarrassing quite frankly that they could get away with it. -
The second part was obvious from TV ... only can do so much with play calling when you have an offense that requires the threat of a passing game but have no passing game to speak of.CokeGreaterThanPepsi said:At the game.

Regarding Ross ... not surprised. -
Pete should scrap the the spread offense completely. Every team prepares for it week in and week out.
I don't believe he ran the spread with Moore. Go back to what you know. -
My big offseason prediction is that John Ross transfers.

Keep blaming that guy that took you from Owen Twelve to 9 wins in four years though. You'll be blaming Obama twenty years from now too.puppylove_sugarsteel said:Why post 35 paragraphs cornel? You were crystal clear with Miles. Didnt matter who played qb, get that through your little grape.
OSU was putting 9 guys in the box regardless. The grown man knew we didnt have a qb on the roster.
No passing game=no running game=no 1st downs or points and vice-versa.
THERE IS NOTHING ELSE TO ANALYZE. Get over it and move on. This game had nothing to do with Pete as a coach.
See Ryan Lindley and the Arizona Cardinals...nuff said dumbass. Is Arians suddenly a bad bad coach because he didnt insert Logan Thomas in the second half? FUCK NO! He didnt because Lindley and the defense gave him the best chance to win. An identical situation to Pete and the dawgs.
Now that ive laid it out, no more ignorant posts on the subject! Fuck me runnin!!!!!
Show me when Sarkisian ever won 9 games at UW?
Maybe you missed the previous bowl/road game gaffes by Sark and Co., or B.C this year?
The hypothetical Sark 9 win season logic makes me wonder if Doogman is more your speed. -
Ross was awesome on the kick return

Cornel you have lost your mind. Miley took his last snap barring injury. Even then would be a question. And cut the playcalling shit. Smith's hands are tied too. Hard to run read option (the only thing Miley can do) when there is no passing option. There's still 8-9 guys dedicated to the LOS. why have a high safety when there's zero threat to throw. Just man up vs our average WR's and pin the proverbial ears back. Spread them out? Big deal, still no threat to pass.jecornel said:The defense with three all American's some good young talent lots of game experience at LB gives up 30 pts against a true freshman. OSU also lost their top offensive player because he decided to beat his girlfriend.
Tired of watching bad football...
No messaging to Browning, if anything Pete was telling miley he is still his guy.
