This is from the poster who claims to have Sold Moos on the idea to go $160 million into debt while cutting stadium capacity from 40,000 down to 32,000.
Similar story to Stanford, but with Eason as heir apparent at QB they won’t be hurting as bad as Stanford but they too probably will take a step back.

As you can see the Mutts are losing a whole lot.
13 of their starting 22 are leaving including JR Taylor Rapp who has declared for the NFL.
Gaskin may be the most significant loss, and in the two deep just a couple are leaving to be 15 of 44 players. So about 1/3 of their two deep mostly in starters. Significant but not as bad as Stanford losing almost half.
How they do really depends on if their defense can keep performing and season, but more than likely it will be a step back year. Probably an 8 win year with maybe a 9th win if Petersen can make it Redbox, Chez-it (you know his bowl level) and squeak a 9th win.

Season is over
Case closed
End of story
No hawt talk about the only player on their team that was worth a shit gone and another year of Leach speculation?
OK!
Our backups, especially on defense, played a fuckton this year.
I'm fine with UW under the radar as long as we? end up on top
I’m hearing Cuog is just one unannounced Grad transfer QB away from repeating as PAC-12 co- Champs
But here are some facts about the game:
UW outgained Ohio State by 80 yards for the game and outgained them in both on the ground and through the air
Statistically, it was Ohio State's 2nd best defensive game of the season (Michigan St was their best) against P5 competition ...
Offensively, the only P5 games where Ohio St performed worse in (yards per play) was Michigan St (bit of a weather game) and Penn St
Washington's yards per play performance of 4.9 yards per play was consistent with their challenges against talented defenses that they played this year in Utah (2x) and Cal
Washington's big problem in the game was their inability to really break any big plays and in particular in the run game ... that was Ohio State's problem the balance of the year was the big play
So in the grand scheme of things, it was really a tale of 2 different halves but some of the ills that stood out with respect to Washington all year and over the last 3 years continues to ring true.
There's a long way to go in terms of upgrading talent, etc., but if you look at the major P5 teams that we've played since 2016, this is the only game where we've statistically outgained our opponent:
USC ('16) = -124 yards (0 turnover margin)
Bama ('16) = -132 yards (-3 turnover margin)
Penn St ('17) = -214 yards (+2 turnover margin)
Auburn ('18) = -22 yards (-2 turnover margin)
Ohio St ('18) = +80 yards (0 turnover margin)
This will be a trend to keep an eye on going forward as we're going to have 2 such teams on the schedule next year with SC and the likely bowl game.
