OFFICIAL Washington vs Maryland Game Thread

[Kingdome_Urinals]

If Fisch salvages a good season we do not want him to leave and take every good player with him.

Every board has retards. I also realize a lot of it is passion. Even in 2023, many would get pissed because we didn’t always look incredible.

Jury is still out on Fisch but the ideal situation is he wins, continues to recruit well/better, and this becomes an attractive place to play for the best transfers to plug holes and upgrade the roster.

Even the best teams (which we aren’t) have ugly games. This was a big win. It was really good to see Demond play like we need him to after such a shitty half.

Only thing worse than a retard is a passionate retard.

New board motto.

An apathetic retard is genuinely one of the saddest things I can think of.

 

[LoneStarDawg]

an aroused retard is nothing to handle lightly

Have to give it up for @RoadDawg55, he’s easily the most glass half full doog.

I can’t wait to read this later when I have time.

That was a great win. Huge. They couldn’t have played worse for 2.5 quarters but they never hung their heads. Down a ton of players and they fought and got it done. I love winning and this one will do just fine. Pedo let Oregon beat them twice, Judd and the boys didn't let TOSU do the same. Nice work.

Just rolled into the promised land — the Padelford parking garage — and my tailgate spot smells like victory (and maybe a little bit like burnt bratwurst). The Husky Faithful seem to be late to arrive but my flags are flapping, the grill is smoking, and I’m blasting the 1991 highlight reel on repeat like it’s church.
Got my lucky purple socks (haven’t been washed since the Apple Cup), my “Duck Season” apron, and a cooler full of Raindogs (if you know, you know). The menu? Classic: Husky Dawgs, purple potato salad, and jalapeño poppers shaped like little W’s. Even the chips are purple — don’t ask how, just believe. (Plenty for you Nacho!)
The Maryland Twerps (see what I did there? Har har) are in town, bless their hearts. They think they’re ready, but they’ve clearly never seen a middle-aged Dawg fan in full war paint at 7 a.m. with three brats, two beers, and one strong opinion about the top 25 snub.
Everywhere you look it’ll soon be purple heaven — as soon as the sun comes up I’m sure there will be kids tossing footballs, dogs wearing UW jerseys, and alumni arguing over who the greatest Husky QB of all time is (Go Jake!).
And Go Dawgs! Beat the Twerps! 

Where my Dawgs at?

Rutgers on Friday not easy for them

One thing I'll say is this is a very different defense with Manu leading it at linebacker. Night and day.

When asked about playing more games, Manu responded:
"I don't know yet. That's something I have to talk to coach Fisch about."
As @BroadcastingDawg noted, the defense is night and day different when Manu's on the field. He's the surest tackler on the team, he hits hard. He's a leader.

My question is why are they asking him if he's going to play more games? He missed 3 games where he wasn't needed. What am I missing here?

So he can redshirt, make more NIL money, put more tape out for the NFL.
Alexander has looked good too. Play Manu against Michigan and Oregon then redshirt him IMO. Shouldn't need him against the Buttgers of the world

 

[NeGgaPlEaSe]

anyone else see Boston going at Coleman because Coleman was trying to calm him down after the touchdown

 

[NeGgaPlEaSe]

That what Fisch basically said. It’s not fair for Manu. ZRS should be ready by then, Fish is playing for next year. Does Boston come back? If he doesn’t get a first or second round grade I could see it.

yep

True. Bowl, Playoff and Conference Championship Games do not count against a redshirt. Play him only as needed and then redshirt him and play him in the post season.

I hate not having Manu on the field. He is probably the best player on the entire defense.

All the LB’s have played well this year. None of them are a liability.

 

[Fire_Marshall_Bill]

Fisch didn’t have the team ready from the jump. Best possible outcome of the season he somehow only drops one more game (impossible) and smoke and mirrors his way to getting Florida interested. We need an SC bailout from Florida.

well considering Washington is the 9th team out of like 40 to win a game traveling 3 time zones, not bad I think soft had that stat pregame

The math shows that the long airplane rides really messes with players, NFL too.

It wouldn't be very hard to make east and west divisions.
West coast teams plus Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, N, and either Illinois or Northworstern. Sea-Tac to MSP isn't much different than Sea-Tac to Denver or Tucson.

Good teammates do that sometimes
