4 days until kickoff you east coast pizza pie eating heathens :P
- Thread starter Alaska_Dawg
- Start date
Can't wait for that Friday night under the lights in Piscataway
I just hope it's a decent game, but pretty sure you're gonna crush us by 40.
That's a lot of pressure on those Huskies. Lots of preseason hype to live up to. Hope they take the time to blow off some steam in NYC on their trip out here. Its the city that never sleeps.. I recommend staying up all night in NYC after-hours clubs.

Ha! They have the same mascot as Uconn
I won't even be able to watch this game because of work -- unless I can get a Husky-hating Spokane native to side with me and watch the game (considering the likely outcome, not much chance) -- but I still can't wait. Need me some R
You sound like a real party to hang out with at games.
Yeah if we were playing WSU.
Husky Stadium was beautiful, and their fans are great. Great coach, too. Plus, they bring their own armada to the tailgate.
That being said: RU wins by 7 touchdowns this year.

Funny story. Washington was playing Connecticut in the NCAA tourney back in the mid 90's and a guy at work said; 'I'll bet ya $20 the Huskies lose.' And like an idiot I said I'll take that bet. Then he says hand me over my $20 because the Huskies are playing the Huskies. I was so fvcking pissed .. but I handed him the $20 seeing how I was screwed either way. :angry:

Seeing Notre Dame at 25 after a season where they just went 4-8 reminds me of
Notre Dame being on that list (again) is one of the big reasons why preseason polls are a complete joke.
Washington did go to Arizona and played a lousy Arizona team. Game went to OT. People are already giving up.
Even it being a joke we are still playing 5 of the top 11 teams on this poll. Nothing against Washington but I wish we had scheduled USC instead.
Sorry Alaska but I think USC is going to mop your floor.
Washington has a horrible time vs mobile QB's and that Dawkins kid at Arizona is a gamer. He tore Washington a new one that evening.
USC might beat Washington but I doubt they mop the floor with the Dawgs. Washington has had the leading defense in the PAC three years in a row now and not once during any of their losses have they been blown out while Petersen has been their HC. Not to make excuses ... seeing how USC is a solid team and their QB is probably the best in the country but when they played Washington last season the Huskies were without the conference leader in sacks (broken foot) and they were also without their leading tackler on the team (broken leg) not to mention Browning hurt his shoulder early on in that game and that's what led to his surgery right after the game with Bama. With that said I'm looking forward to seeing a rematch between those two teams. Darnold is a tuff one to contain and if they do meet up again I think Petersen will have a different defensive scheme in order to slow Darnold down.

You guys play UCLA in '20 and '21 and their campus is right down the road from USC's.
I just got back from Alaska - no football teams up there! But it is beautiful, I must say.
OC and head coach, let's not forget the issues with him that game as well
THE OC REPORTS TO THE HC, the HC is the boss and can override and make changes anytime he wants. The HC approves of the offense, plan etc etc
our OC has been made a scapegoat, he was only part of the problem
