2023 Week 14: UW Football - Whoregon II

[57reasons]

Penix did a great job, but how is DJ not MVP?

because they want him to win the Heisman, and getting the champ game MVP helps that. down to either him or Daniels now, but i think he gets it.
but yeah, DJ definitely most deserving. the whole OL group too, hard to single out just one.

Woof. Darren we may be back in business. How about Alabama beating Georgia and Iowa beating Michigan for an encore?

God is Good and there is a reason Oregon is below Washington on the map.

The UW coaching staff did a great job of analyzing and correcting weaknesses from the previous Oregon game to come up with a better game plan. The D was nights and days better. It was a great way to end it all, going out on top and owning one of the more slimy programs with classless fans in college football.

I am humbled by the guts and toughness of the Huskies yesterday. I am a graduate from the school and have been a fan since childhood but I always have a negative look to outcomes. I don't know why but I always expect a lousy game with a lousy outcome. I think I feel if I publicly make negative predictions I won't be letdown so much if it happens. Maybe it has to do with the years with "he who will not be named" as coach. Anyway I look back at some of my posts and actually get embarrassed that I would be such a negative jerk. Oh well onward to the playoffs!

Seriously? This was a very strange third and two call, a Penix over throw and a ridiculously bad PI call in the first half from being 31 to 3 at the half!?

By the way, I realize we won anyway, but does anyone else think if the PI before the half or the holding call on the last drive had been called AGAINST Oregon they’d be a huge topic of conversation today? Both horrendous calls, and instead of it being talked about, we had some geezer in the booth telling us how great the PAC 12 officials are and crickets after the game. I mean, for fuck sakes, I broke my phone and they just gloss over this shit? Haha

We all do it. You can’t be emotionally tied to something without being emotional.

they also REALLY benefitted from getting healthy. first time since season start having the whole compliment of receivers, and you see what a difference a healthy McMillan makes (barely played and ineffective in the first meeting). Also getting Tuli healthy in last few weeks, and Johnson of course, though he was still hobbling a bit. But the biggest impact other than JMac was getting KamFab and Asa Turner back at safety. Kam was particularly Fabulous against their short passing game.

and one other big factor - the underdog role. pundits did them a huge favor making Oregon a nearly 10 point favorite. All the pressure this team was manifesting in their tight games of late was shifted to the opponent, who played tight this time.

Man this is either going to be an epic stressfest or a massive buzzkill. Sweating bullets...

Thankful it was just the former!

IF you think about it, and both UW and Oregon make the playoffs, we may play for a 3rd time.

Impossible. OSU will jump us.

So happy we will never know!!!!
