Coogfarm takeaways

As embarrassing as it is for the Cougs to drop a game to an FCS school two years in a row....Easterns QB and Kupp are both damn good football players. Lots of FBS defenses would struggle to defend them -QB was on the money all night throwing daggers and dropping dimes. They are gonna tear up their conference.
 
Of course WSU should have beaten PSU and EWU but they are both good teams who came in and played really well. EWU is just really good. This isn't nearly the joke/embarrassment/disgrace/suicide watch/burn my diploma/go join a monastery drama that guys are trying to make it into. EWU is good. PSU had a good game plan.
 
A lot of FCS teams won or came close this weekend. I wonder if the kids in the "elite" programs are getting softer now-a-days with all their pampered nonsense and the kids in the FCS are getting tougher and playing with something to prove. It seems like the gap is pretty small between levels, especially at the start of the season when depth isn't an issue.
 

Agree. Grinch really got exposed last night for his inability to prepare his defense and make in-game adjustments. Don't get me wrong, I still support Grinch. I think he did a great job last year. But the product he put on the field last night was sub par at best. How Kupp EVER ran free is unbelievable and inexcusable. Why he didn't blitz an EWU line that not one single guy had a start is an absolute travesty. Tackling, well that was a complete joke. It's probably time our D coaches spend less time on Twitter making childish videos and more time watching film and identifying and developing a solid game plan. I'll be in Boise next week...god I hope we improve or it'll be a long night! Rypien will destroy the defense that played last night.

We'll beat Boise, lose to Idaho, run the table through the south, lose to cal, osu, Oregon, Stanford, and then ruin UWs legit run through the pac12. Excluding a pac12 team from the playoff, as it should be. It's the skript.
 
Put my Cougs in a Las Vegas Bowl and I am there. But Leach is now 0-5 in Coug season openers and beginning a season as the conference punchline is about par.

I didn't get a chance to watch, but I heard both the Ohio State and Michigan games were much closer than the final scores.

Weird, I think that was taken verbatim from Dawgman after the Vernon Adams game two years ago.
 
Leach said in his press conference, "Their first line guys are just as good as our front line guys"

Which begs the question "Since their front line guys are from the State of Washington, why didnt you recruit them to WSU?"

and the followup, "is it safe then to say, their front line guys are better coached?"

It's comforting to know that an annual $15 million deficit in the WSU athletic department attracts 'as good as' talent.

 
It's sad to see the losing coach owns a 5 year rollover contract.

It appears Washington taxpayers are subsidizing the wrong coach.

They were a couple plays away from losing.

Depends on your perspective. 45-10 and a broken Marks says otherwise.
