  1. Well, please consider this my application to the skeleton crew.
  2. And that's the image you decide upon. I mean I see your perspective on this choice, but agree to disagree. And um.. used too?!?! You're dead to me.
  3. This is a big part of it. Too many bowl games. It's hard to give a fuck about 2 no name .500 teams playing in the Milwaukee Crabs Fest Culligan Shitter Bowl sponsored by Whores-R-Us
  4. Damn, just reminded me I'm running out of time. Pulp Fiction is one of my once a year movies I have stashed on an SSD. 2001 a Space Odyssey, The Fifth Element, Blade Runner directors cut and Apocalypse Now are in there as well but already watched. That is a very good list man! I'd add Road Warrior (original) and The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. But... yeah.
  5. I was at that game with my father. Last one we got to attend together.
  6. There is a 100% chance of black hole implosion or coke & Molly super model sex level euphoria on this very board by 2 minutes in.
  7. "On paper" I think we match up better against Bama, but I concur about not wanting a re-match no matter how good their QB isn't. Also, I want to have beaten all the P5 champs. Finally, agreed, as a college football fan, re-matches suck.
  8. Fair, but if you want something supernatural I'd suggest Ghostly Coach Staff over someone who owns a Bitchin Camaro.
  9. Slow your roll motherfucker, word choice matters.
  10. None of us do and why do you think this thread is 41 pages long. 😉
  11. I think Penix is definitely the best QB we have and hopefully will face, by a goodly margin. Counter point, Washington really hasn't seen a defense of our quality. From a defensive standpoint it really comes down to whether or not we can get pressure on Penix without blitzing. May seem that simplistic and there obviously a lot of nuances that have already been covered in this thread by folks with a higher football IQ than me. However, at the end of the day that's item one. Item two, which I really think more important, is whether or not Sark will keep the gas peddle down on offense if we get a lead of more than 10 points. I think we WILL get a lead, and actually grow it into the 3rd beyond this year's historical. BUT... that's when I fear Sark pull his foot off. Hope I'm wrong. I think we can win either way (though it's definitely NOT a given), but keeping UW on its heals in the early 4th defensively.. turns into a completely different game.
  12. Part of the reason they're so much better on third is that we force a lot more 3rd and +6 yards this year too. I know that's super hot and brilliant observation but it's an important fact. It's in no small part to due to great play at the LOS.
  13. Speed is fantastic, NFL wants consistency, hands, effort and athleticism. Worthy will absolutely get a look and PT, but as others have noted he doesn't love go fetch with a crowd.
  14. That's a largely honest and realistic assessment and discussion.... wtf is going on here.
  15. This is pretty much how it has to go. Find a way to stop worthy and get pressure on Quinn without a lot of blitzing and still contain run. Not an easy task and why I frankly differ with the majority of Surly on my opinion that Texas matches up better with UW than Michigan. (Both tough match ups for the record)
  16. That's a fair point too. This page really spells out why I think the over is a very solid bet in this game. Edit - I just want to echo other comments saying thanks for bring real football talk from the opposing view. We are a bunch of dicks and know it all but if you have a clue we enjoy engaging.
  17. Worthy has proven himself a dangerous weapon this year, probably has more YAC than Mitchell, but Mitchell seems to be Quinn's go to receiver for TD's. I know this will sound pretty homerish, but it's a pick your poison type thing with our offense when it's firing on all cylinders, but I'm sure you can say the same about UW. I would argue the biggest variance in that regard UT vs UW is our break away speed and power at RB with Oline that opens gaps up the middle. I haven't seem that at any point from UW, but I admit I only watched 3 of their games.
  18. And running man/press on him gets him clean pretty often. Need a safety zone for assistance or he's going to cause issue for a D in that situation often.
