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

Arizona is not better than Boise or Illinois

Another game we should win, especially at home. We have to wait one more week to see if this team is really any better than Sark's first four.

Even then, no one win is going to "prove" anything. We beat Stanford last year, then got routed by Arizona and choked against WSU and Boise.

    Dunno if Zona is better than BSU or Illy, but they proved last season they are way better than us.

    If you can't see this is the same team as 2010, even PLSS Can't help you. Maybe we need to wait a couple more years to see if sark is actually an average coach.

    They had a very good QB last year. He graduated. We played them down there last year.

    Their defense and running game are both better this year, both definitely better than anything the Huskies have seen so far. Huskies are currently 7 point favorites and should win the game, but it could just as likely go the other way. LIFPO

    Based on what? Arizona has one of the best RB's in the country you piece of shit. They definitely have a better running game then Boise or Illinois. Do you ever know what the fuck you are talking about?

    Yes,Tucson is always a tough place to play. Big, aggressive, loud crowds, 2,500 ft elevation, night game etc. Understandable that all of that is worth 50 points.

    UW wins because they have better players. Huskies should win by 20 at home on talent alone, but Sark does his best to lose, so it stays close, but Huskies cover 36-28.

    Neither has UW.

    Has Sark's mythical great recruiting that doesn't include linemen really made UW better than AU? Who develops it better? What will iDawg say when Zona hangs 50?

    This is what concerns me. Stupid penalties, and going for it on 4th down when we should take the 3 points. In other words, undisciplined...per usual.

    As a Duck fan, I can honestly say that this is the best Husky team I have seen in the Sark era. You have great speed and terrific tacklers on the backside of the defense.

    On the offensive side of the ball:
    You have more speed than ever
    Your receivers can now catch the football
    Sark has now copied an offensive strategy that hides the team's one glaring weakness which is pass blocking.

    Washington football is better now than it has been in years, but don't get me wrong. Although great lipstick, it's still lipstick over a very mediocre pig, which is magnetized by the ineptitude of your head coach. This team will do better than 7-6, but when playing against better talent they will get destroyed. There will be some bleeding buttholes post-game of the Oregon, Stanford, and UCLA games. This team could go 10-3 this year, but the separation between this program and the top tier will still be huge.

    10-3 with 3 plungers will feel like a Northwestern like 10-3. Nobody will really think much about it, from a national perspective.

    Doogs would never stop singing Sark's praises after that scenario.

    If Arizona is so good, how can you expect Sark to win?

    I expect Sark to win and win comfortably on Saturday. If he doesn't I am going to be pissed.

    So you don't expect Sark to beat a good team?

    Sark is an average coach almost certainly.

    Average coaches sometimes luck into good seasons. There's a decent chance this could be one of those.

    Add to those concerns that UW is mediocre up front and there is at least some plunger potential.

    I didn't see last weekend's scrimmage, but it seemed like they experienced some regression in gap containment and open field tackling in the Illinois game. Arizona will gash the Huskies defense if they don't get that shit cleaned up pronto.

    Of course I do. Not going to win every game against good teams, but can't lose them all either. And no losses to mediocrities like Arizona.

    I always expect a win. That's why i hate sark, he disappoints me at least 6 times a year.
    I'd say there's more disappointment than that. When was the last time a Sark team really hit on all cylinders? Sarktardo frequently rears his ugly head, an at least one phase of the game has been out of phase since he took over.

    Can we just wait until Stanford or Oregon week? I hate to see the halfbrains pressing too early and too soon.

    You mean like since he was hired? Its cool that you think we need to wait and see if he can go 6-3 and finish third so you can get excited for next year. Year 6
