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

UW +19 @ the Tree. O/u 47.5

Wow that is a lot higher than I anticipated.

Maybe I am drinking the kool aid but I put down 3 units on UW plus the points.

Stanford has yet to face a rushing defense in the top 60 in the nation in opponent yards per rush attempt. UW is tied for 20th at 3.4.

Vizcaino's strong leg will also eliminate McCaffrey as a KO return threat (as will UW's offense never scoring.)

Shaw is over due for some dumb coaching decisions and when he sees the ineptitude of the UW offense I think he will be content playing it safe and settling for FGs and punts.

I see this setting up as a good ol' fashioned moral victory. Say, 22-13?

    + 19 to Stanfraud...that's sickening

    Yeah I know they're good at football now. We need to be good at football too.

    I'd still take UW vs that kind of spread.

    UW and the points seems like the smart bet, but I would never bet on this team or coach. I remember in 2011, my buddy put $250 on UW against Stanford. The line was +20 and UW was 5-1 at the time. I was thinking it was easy money, but Stanford broke out the plunger.

    2011 vs. 2015

    Team sucks/Team sucks

    Team is overrated/Team is not rated

    Team shown propensity to give up points by the truckload/Team shown propensity to lose "close" low-scoring games

    As a fan, win just win.

    As a bettor taking the points- one of these things is not like the other.

    2011's d was horrible. This one is good and Hogan's Heroes is a serviceable qb but he's not going to light up any scoreboards. If they can't contain Ed McCaffrey's son, there's a problem.

    Didn't Oregon get some opportunities in the return game last week? I remember one return went for about 90 yards or so.
