If Peetahman loses Sat, he will not beat a team with a winning record during the regular season

Peter Piper is making Sark look like a genius. At least Sark got the Huskies an appearance on Game Day. Of course you ultimately owed your game day appearance to duck prestige, but that #16 ranking was good enough to get you on the big stage and draw the flag waving cougs to Seattle. It also gave Oregon the chance to add a key husky pelt to the collection, solidifying the duckade on a national platform, while firmly driving home the point that the ducks are the true kings of Pacific Northwest football.

Give Peter another year. If he doesn't have the team achieving a greater level of proficiency and trending upward, like Sonny Dykes has done with Cal, then I'd start worrying a bit. If he's as good as advertised, he should be able to put the chess pieces in order, and inspire whatever talent you've got at Washington to work together, buy in and play at a higher ability. I expect to see a more capable Husky team next year. Perhaps it will present a challenge to Oregon. Maybe. We'll see.

if at the start of the season someone told me Petersen wouldn't beat even one winning team during this season, I wouldn't have believed it for a minute.

Dykes looked shitty his first year too. He inherited a shitty team and seems to have improved it a great deal in his second year. They aren't good yet, but their current trajectory looks promising. Their offensive is truly impressive. Petersen needs to do what Saban did for Alabama, change the team and have it play to its strengths (like he did with their QB -- their team seems to have been custom fitted to Sims and his abilities; he's not even that great, but their team is clicking in their altered state) and fire, if necessary, inept assistants and coordinators. Clean house if that's what it takes. That may set you back yet another year, but I would think it would yield dividends in the longer term.

I thought the only teams we'd beat with a winning record this season would be Arizona and Arizona State.

Expected losses to Oregon, Stanford and UCLA. Expected Arizona, Illinois and Georgia State to be between 1-11 to 4-8 teams. Expected Cal, Col and Wazzu to have losing records this season, and Oregon State to be 6-6.

I'm not surprised, but I'm still disappointed, even if we happen to beat Arizona tomorrow.
 
The PAC 12. You're Bayne.

Dykes is not our role model. HTH.

If you cunt see that Washington is run by dykes I cunt help you.
 
I couldn't fucking care.

We are getting the same season we would have gotten with Sark, but likely with one more win. I'm not convinced Sark would have beat EWU and/or Hawaii.

Peterman has earned the right to burn it down and build it his way.

I'll start caring in year 3 ...

So you couldn't care less?
 
How many more games would we have lost if we had given up around 300 more yards in penalties? Because that's what we would have had with Sark.
 
If each of these guys started every game this year, it's tough not to think we'd have 1 or 2 more wins: Stringfellow, Riva, Peters, and Charles.

Of course Stringfellow was a total idiot who got into fights about the Broncos while not even being from Colorado and Peters had the distinction of being suspended by two different coaching staffs. As for Riva, the offense stunk when he missed most of 2012 with a broken arm and it's happening again since he's missed pretty much the whole season. Tough to go from a 6'7" 313 lbs RS-SR OT with loads of starts under his belt to a 6'4" 281 lbs RS-Frosh who is young for his age and really needed another year of development.

Charles missed part of the Oregon game and then has missed the last 3 games. His backup Tunfunga who had never really played and his only scholarship offer was from Sloppy Steve and Dan Cozzetto so it's no coincidence that we've gone 1-3 in the last 4 games against better competition and missing 40% of our OL (with Riva probably our best OL).

Next year we'll benefit from Coleman Shelton getting so many starts and Tufunga competing for the RG spot after playing some this year, but man would it be nice to get Riva and Charles back for Arizona. It sounds like Charles is probably but Riva is questionable...I really hope to see #59 out there tomorrow.
 
What about the cuogs and their moral victories? They are a couple bad calls, a couple bad breaks, from leading the North. An Apple Cup win will ahve to count for something

I guess to look for another silver lining besides a boatload of frosh playing in the secondary and at Shelton at RT basically a returning starter for next year, the only places where the previous staff left good depth (DL and LB) is where we'll be losing most of our starters. The biggest drop off will probably be at the Buck position, with either RS-Frosh Jaylen Johnson or a JC guy being the likely answer there.
