Lot’s of discussion about the last 10 years but Ludwig is only responsible for 1 full recruiting year so far. So far he has done about as well as expected giving us QB options. If you can do better, contact Whitt. We don’t need to revisit OCs from the past.

We have not had 10 full years in the Pac yet but have been moving ahead of typical and…[Read more]

Question is which half if the best predictor for either team? I do believe we are not yet a good enough team to roll on despite TOs. I do see encouraging things from new players. In the past, even our best players were not consistent in their first games especially as true freshmen. I hope to see us settle in before we are all done this year.…[Read more]

The pre fall depth chart had starters that were not playing. Much of the OL went thru 10 days quarantine. If you have coached even little league you know an OL needs to practice and play a game as a unit. Until then and as folks come and go, you won’t see them play good in competitive games. We can accept the brutal facts of our current…[Read more]

It’s football. Not everything goes your way. Not everything goes as expected. If you can’t take the disappointment of a couple of losses while standing there watching others work hard, you really should find something else to do. I recommend checkers, if still not winning enough, find younger opponents. The explanations will be beyond your…[Read more]

I agree, on that play my son was screaming for Utah to check out of the blitz. We need to be much better disguising the blitz or it will simply work against us. Bentley needs to slid feet first much more. Even more, not fight for yards when someone has your feet, that isn’t always wise for a RB never for a QB. Clark was outside, this week…[Read more]

I do know Whitt has said 4th down is his decision. I have noted most coaches are conserative with a lead, Whitt also highly dislikes TOs, I expect that is keen when trying to hold a lead. We pick up a first down after Washington’s last TO and the discussion today is completely different, it is that close. With a young team is is difficult that…[Read more]

Hate to say this but listening to Beth makes me feel like my wife is talking about something not football related as I watch a game. I am sure she is a wonderful person but I can imagine there are topics she would not like to hear me discuss for hours.

I think Washington is the second best team in the North. That places them in the top third of the conference. Games in the top third have most often been hard to win so I expect Washington to be difficult. Utah has yet to show us we are in that top third, we could be but have not shown it yet. If Washington is merely something between Az and…[Read more]

Washington has talent but not USC / Oregon talent.
Washington will have to face practiced remedies that were not available last week.
OL will give up fewer free runs at the QB from practice as a unit.
Bentley gets 90% of practice reps.
Adjustments to better get WRs and TEs involved. Practice with slants and TEs moving into space left by blitz.
RBs…[Read more]

Is this an emergency scout team QB taking the place Lisk has been in?

We are very close to the team down south. It can be too easy to catch their delusion where there are years your team is #1 and the years in-between where someone screwed up perfection.

In the P5 almost every team is very good, even those under 500. Very good teams most often don’t finish undefeated. When you understand that, any one loss to a…[Read more]

Goodness, even the choice of music is awesome. These skills should bring in very good WRs.

I will watch but football will be at it’s best when it is just football. It’s hard to get an update on the radio on football without unwanted opinions about subjects I have never felt I have been involved with. With everything we have had to endure this year we need to be able to go to a place free of emotional vibes.

Why is Checketts on 700?

Always nice to have the players names because the announcer does not provide all names for every player on the field. Makes you have a roster on your phone if you are interested in who is who.

I expect that when any of the undefeated mid-majors lose a game they will drop out of the rankings, then to have beaten them would be the bump you get from beating an unranked mid-major. Not much to be gained there it simply adds one to the win column without adding to the significant wins. This is mid 80 revisited where we have no idea how to…[Read more]
