Sark's playing with USC house money now.

I called for a Stanford blowout last year and expect one again for the same reasons. They're a horrible matchup for a team with only one 300 pound DL.
The differences last year were: 1) home game, 2) forgot about Tokolahi, 3) didn't know how shitty Nunes was, 4) Montgomery dropped like 3 or 4 balls that could have put us away.
I don't think UW has any one of those things going for it this time. We lose by 3 scores. The D hangs tough for a while but melts by the end of the 3rd. -

Going full doog here, but this is a winnable game on paper, unlike OR
You got them mixed up. Very little chance if any of a victory down in Palo Alto (hi Mike) this Saturday, but against Ore at home a small chance.
That being said, I see Ore winning 48-24 when the game is played.
This weekend will...to borrow the plunger-rape term used here will be ugly. At least 30 point margin and I also see Stanford also getting near 50, if not getting 50.

UW has the 4th ranked D in the country. UW plays with 5 DEs and wins 14-13.

I agree. Oregon is a much better match up for Washington, but no more likely a win because (as has already been poasted) they're similar teams, except Oregon is better than UW pretty much across the board, and they're executing at a much higher level.MarkKoopman said:unfrozencaveman said:Going full doog here, but this is a winnable game on paper, unlike OR

You might be right on the margins as well. Folks forget that the biggest conference plunger of the Sarkingham error has been at Stanford's hands. They hung 65 on the Huskies in 2011, and that game was worse than the score reflected. A week and a half ago they tore ASU a new ass, and would have won by a much bigger margin if Shaw hadn't gotten cute early in the second half, deciding to give his backups some playing time way before the game was over. I didn't see the whole game against WSU, but it looked like he was a little smarter this time and kept the gas powered plunger-o-matic humming until late in the game. I guess we'll see what happens soon enough, but my money is on the annual three game skid starting this week. -
Using last year's game is as bad as the people who said Arizona was going to beat us because they beat us last year.

you're brilliant more_Weenie. The biggest Sark hater is suddenly on the wagon. Like most of you ignant cunts

and if UW loses ya'll will be saying "I told you so, Sark can't coach". Even though they're playing, in my mind, the best team in the country, and the most difficult schedule in the country left to play. OSU might be ranked by that game.
Sark would have this team in the rose bowl if Stanford and Oregon were just average. Its almost unfair what Sark has to deal with this year, and last (which is why he might take SC job. ) -
UW's best defensive player is Dropped Pass.chuck said:I called for a Stanford blowout last year and expect one again for the same reasons. They're a horrible matchup for a team with only one 300 pound DL.

Stanford's QB performance against us last year was one of the worst I've ever seen. Missed numerous wide open opportunities. That terrible play allowed us to stack the box and have some success against their run game. We won't be able to do that this year with Hogan at the helm. I don't see us winning this game unless we call a perfect game on offense and really stretch the field.Global said:I said the same thing last year, and the Dawgs pulled one of the top 2-3 surprises of the Sark era. That was in Seattle and without Hogan, but still makes me cautious. That win, plus the two notable wins against USC are the only reason I could stand Sark, and that stopped after the Apple Cup last year.
I can't see us doing the same thing this year, and think the Dawgs will do well to stay within 10.
Our pass blocking has been decent, but not great so far this year. Stanford will get sacks with a 3-man rush.
