    We weren't too young in 2010, although we got younger as the season went on and Sark replaced Ty's guys with his freshmen.

    That's supposed to be an excuse for Sark?
    Yes. It is a legitimate reason why we only won the Holiday Bowl in Sarks second year

    My argument is this: There are logical reasons to believe 2013 can be different. Therefore, LIFPO

    How can it be different? We are already 25% done and have done nothing to show that there is anything different. There would have been logical reasons before the season started - or even before BSU was exposed as just another middling (at best) team. Now though, the odds of us being a good team are pretty much non-existent.

    You won the Holiday Bowl in 2010 because Sark put freshmen in. However, those freshmen have been coached up since then to go 7-6, 7-6.

    But now they're seniors. Let's just hope senioritis doesn't kick in. "lol"

    The Seahawks went 11-5 last yr. and will probably win 12 + games this year with their young team. it's not exactly the same thing but close.

    Doogs love to blame youth, the schedule and injuries.... you could use it least one of those excuses for 120/125 "FBS" teams. The good programs get it done or find someone who can get it done.

    I liked the take, but the REAL reason UW won that Holiday Bowl is because they were the only team on the field that cared.
  • Only reason UW made the bowl game is because Sark finally made the offense about Polk instead of Locker.

    There are really two issues with the actual players:
    1- No offensive linemen (quality and sheer numbers)
    2- No defensive linemen. (quality and sheer numbers)

    Youth and all the other variables are side shows for the real, and most likely fatal flaws for this team. This team is very limited for these two reasons. The other players can not compensate for this. This is a simple game, not easy but simple.
