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

Why beating a shitty Oregon is important

This is a total WIW post, but Oregon is no longer just a nice game to put in the win column. Oregon is the single biggest mental roadblock the program faces. It doesn't matter how shitty Oregon is, that block has to be removed.

    Why do you hate mental blocks with Arizona State?

    That's big too, but ASU isn't in the same division.

    Huskies are also favored at home (-2 now) so need to take care of business.

    The Ducks are wounded (Adams probably won't be 100% if he plays) so I hope the Huskies can jump out to a good lead and seize the initiative.

    It opened at +1.5, so there is that.

    How often do you interact with anyone from Arizona State? Yeah there's a losing streak there but I don't feel like it hangs over our heads like the UO streak. For one thing most of them have been close losses that we blew in the end, as opposed to ass rapings. For another, they're on the other side of the conference, we recruit against them rarely, and you don't walk around Seattle seeing people wearing whatever the fuck their colors are.

    Arizona State streak is embarrassing, the Oregon streak is devastating.
