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

I didn't think it was possible to enjoy a season any less than 2014

    Rutgers, Idaho, Portland State... I don't think we play any other FCS teams, so I don't know how you got to 8-6.

    It's a throw away season that the games aren't worth trying to win because our midget players could get hurt

    But we can dream on our midgets and their bright futures.

    We just need to graduate the last few losers out of the program so that peterman can train some new ones.

    You really can't think of a single season less enjoyable than this one? Really? Like seriously? I don't know I can think of one or two.

    2008 was glorious because they couldn't keep Ty around after that shit show. This season we know we're going to hear the usual excuses for years to come.

    In this scenario it seems UW beats Oregon, and nothing else matters.

    Our D is better than anythink Sark put out....but the offense is such a disaster it hurts..i've been drunk for48 hours I think work is going to be challenging tomorrow...but i'lll figure it out unlike smith.

    Oh, that guy gets paid twice as much to fucking suck like no other.

    If Pete doesnt' fire taht GUCKING BEAVER then i'm done. My doog level on a scale from 1-auberan dawg is 1. Zero wiggle room. I've mentioned my doogish dad before, but to not fire Babushka is disrespectful to his tyee donation. Let's see what Pete is made of. I count 4 winnable losses.

    Balls in your court.

    2006 starting 4-1 with Stanback at the helm was the last moment of realization...We had SC in their prime on the ropes. Next thing you know he goes down against oregon st. in a driving rain. What's really doogish is UW was going to lose that game before he went down. So 4-2 and the crumble began. Watching the close ups of Locker being redshirted was special. I bet UW wins 2 games if Ty pulls his shirt and they are bowl eligible. whatevs.

    2007 was excitign because syracuse, Boise, and Ohio State. Jake Locker was a fucking man before sark ruined him. His frosh campaign was special...the only player wearing purple and gold that would have got a schollie on the opposing team.

    The last time I dooged was UW being undefeated at Stanford with Teeth Price playing the best game of his career. An ASJ drop and Kasen williams catch overturned later was the official death of husky football.

    Fuck I'm high.

    I was dooging this year against USC, especially about Victor, Feeney, and Longassneck's play. I guess last year it was for Shaq, Peters, and Shelton, but there wasn't anything that sustained. It says something about the Peterman era that you can't say definitively that his years have been more enjoyable than Sark's. I mean, sure, it's nice to dominate Arizona and beat a down USC, but Sark did that shit too. It's just been a fucking freak show for so long.

    The expectations are higher now, so I guess that means Peterman has done something to shift the discourse around the program. But how much of that is based on reputation? It's back to the point where you say "script" and know going into the game exactly how they're going to lose.

    I disagree. Expectations aren't higher. Virtually no one is demanding championship football.

    You're right. NOBODY gives a fuck about the Huskies. Quote me and send it to the president. Nobody gives a fuck. The attendance for a home game against a top 15 opponent in November says it all.

    How can you be a self respecting AD and see the crowd on Saturday and feel good about your job? I'm fucking pissed guys.

    I meant here, amongst people that seem to know what they're talking about. But you're entirely right that the average fan thinks that Pete just got here, and that gee golly, he needs five years to get his own guys in there.

    I should have added 2003. As drecky as that season was, beating Oregon and the Cuogs was probably still good enough for top three on my list. BONEM! Fucking fuck.

    It's a massive over reaction in my mind to say that this season is less enjoyable than pick your favorite season in the last 10-15.

    There's a lot of things going right ...

    The things going wrong are just major fuckups right now ... some of it coaching some of it just players finding the best way to be fucked up losers at the worst time.

    What's going right this year:

    36th in SRS
    Points For: 240 (26.67 pts per game)
    Points Against: 169 (18.77 pts per game)
    Point Differential: +71

    What's going wrong:

    4-5 record
    2-4 in conference
    Failure to win close games
    Offensive playcalling

    The reality is that we're a young team showing positive signs but taking lumps. We're underperforming what the numbers would suggest that we should be at at this point.

    In some ways, this season reminds me a bit of the 1988 season that I vaguely remember in that we lost a ton of close games finishing at 6-5 overall and 3-5 in conference. The Seniors that played on the '91 team were either true or RS Freshman on this team. Some interesting stats from that team:

    25th in SRS
    Points For: 254 (23.1 pts per game)
    Points Against: 223 points (20.3 pts per game)
    Point Differential: +31

    The losses in conference that year were by 7, 1, 3, 3, and 1

    The following year in 1989 saw an 8-4 record and an improvement to 5-3 in conference. SRS went from 25th to 14th and total point differential for the year increased to +107. What followed from there were 3 straight Rose Bowls and a National Championship.

    There's some transformative things that need to happen in the program to continue to get things moving in the right direction. There's good reason for frustration ... but the numbers are showing positive signs and trends.
