OFFICIAL Washington-Arizona Game Thread

Maybe we could, oh I dunno, stop running into the fucking kicker?

Also, I love watching a guy wearing #3 who thinks he can scramble. It doesn't give me painful flashbacks or anything, nah.
 
Can you imagine putting the starters back in during a blowout and having someone like uh Molden get injured? Some pretty disappointing takes in the latter part of this thread.

I remember a game in the 1980s where Washington was beating Stanford 34-0 late in the fourth quarter. Stanford drove into UW territory, and James brought the starters back in to preserve the shutout. @RaceBannon might remember that one. I think it was 1985. Their QB was John Paye and he was pissed off at UW after the game.

Don James did it a few times. You don't give up four touchdowns to bottom feeders in a quarter. It's just not okay. You bring them back for a series

Surprised at the level of Doogness on here

This is why Don James is unmatched and a top 5 CFB coach of all time. Urban Meyer and Saban do the same shit
 
I tuned out at halftime. What did I miss?

Also, did we? confirm Jon Don has actually made it to campus? With the hat and balaclava, I’m still not 100% certain that it is him. Could be an impostor.
 
Shane knows what’s up. At least splice a few starters back in when they score that first TD, and take out Irvin for fuck’s sake

I don’t retract my statement. Covid ball is gay as fuck. I’ll wait till 2021 for strong opinions.

Also, you now have greater risks of targeting ejections, which are stupid.
 
After the Molden scare, there was zero chance of putting starters in there when we were up like 5 scores.

Yup. This is below Football 101 levels of duh

I wish the scrubs didn’t suck though. Disappointing.
 
A full quarter of play for 2nd and 3rd stringers is a great scenario. It’s a way for Arizona to pad stats, but UW’s depth is mainly young, and this is live fire exercise for them.

Much better to get them comfortable like this than some sort of injury replacement.

The Wildcats piled up 265 yards in the final period alone, mostly playing against a combination of second- and third-string defenders, and Gunnell tossed three touchdown passes in that time. It wasn’t pretty, but the Huskies had earned the right to let their backups make mistakes.

“When we have the opportunity to put in all of our backups on offense, defense and special teams and get those guys some great work, we will always do that,” Lake said. “And it’s going to pay dividends down the road. That game was over, 44-0 (actually 44-6), and it was awesome to get those young guys some valuable, valuable reps.”
