Oregon St Review, Oregon Preview & TV Talk

November 11, 2022 07:02 - 1 hour - 112 MB

Good win against Oregon St. The offense looked elite when it absolutely had to be. Oregon hasn't faced a top 5 team in Pac-12 on the road. They are very tough at home and always get up for Washington. Does our AD care as much as Oregon's? Are we wrong to think not? Great Jerry Falwell movie God Forbid on Hulu & new mob series Tulsa King.

Can UW Win on the Road?

October 21, 2022 07:28 - 1 hour - 46.1 MB

UW will face the best defense it has played so far but the worst offense it has faced. Can it win a game on the road it should? Also, we bemoan the attendance and crowd issues again, while noting that coach Deboer will have some heavy lifting going into next season. 

UW vs. Arizona. UW Needs a Big Bounce Back Game.

October 14, 2022 05:56 - 1 hour - 30.8 MB

The season is over if UW loses this game. Coaches have to put players in better position on defense. Offense had C and C- games last two weeks which does not help when the defense is really struggling. UW needs a big win this week. A close win may feel like a loss. 

This is a huge game for UW & Deboer

October 07, 2022 05:54 - 59 minutes - 30.2 MB

Can UW bounce back? Or is UW a front running team that will struggle on the road? For us to be happy with the how the season turns out, UW must win this game.

Kent State Observations & A Few Random Rants

September 08, 2022 06:33 - 55 minutes - 26.4 MB

We take a glass-half empty approach to our analysis as fans are overly excited about winning a game that we were favored in by 20. There are some concerns but this was the first game in a new system and there is plenty of time to improve. Midway through we go off on a tangent and rant about some things. 

Kent St Preview & How to go 10-3

September 02, 2022 06:53 - 59 minutes - 29.4 MB

We discuss what we want to see against Kent St as well as what is needed to go 10-3. That would raise UW's national brand and certainly help give recruiting a major boost for Deboer in year 2.

Worried About UW in NIL Era

April 27, 2022 06:43 - 1 hour - 30.7 MB

We are very worried about the consequences of UW's approach and attitude in the NIL era. We also talk about the bizarre outcome of UW football over the last 21 seasons. The highs and lows in the context of one another are truly bizarre and emblematic of a progrum lacking leadership.

Cautious Optimism on 2022 Season

March 17, 2022 05:45 - 43 minutes - 60.2 MB

Apologies for the jumbled recording. We have some optimisim on the 2022 season, especially if we can land Mitchell Agude. Coach Kalen Deboer is a proven high level offensive coach who could transform the offense and quickly. There is quite a lot of remaining talent on defense. Michael Penix' health is the X factor. This season is important to catalyze recruiting. Also talk on NIL.
