Anyone feel like the dawgs are going to feast on the Big ten?

Washington has already shown they belong in the Big. They beat the shit out of NW and Michigan, despite being a bad team in a total rebuilding year with no real QB.

Coaching is trash. That was painful to watch. The Michigan win didn't mean much that team is on a clean slate after winning the natty last year.

This was me preparing a response:

"I doubt it'll be THAT bad, you still get to play..."

...pulls up UW schedule online.

"Oh, shit."

Yeeeaaahhh, um, maybe they beat UCLA?

Haha :(

The fvck, bro? Whose side are you on?

The Michigan win was the best win in college football, like pretty much ever.

It was cool because it was Michigan but Michigan sucks this year. How do you get blown out by Iowa the team isn't anywhere close to competing in the Big 10 yet. Rutgers now Iowa. Cmon man.

Yep. Everyone outside of Michigan and Washington knew the wheels have come off Michigan this year. That was BEFORE the UW game.

It is a nice win, at home. But it does nothing to convince me that our HC is anything but a middle-tier (if that) coach.
Hopefully he can recruit, because we effing lost to WSU and RUTGERS. (Let it sink in that we are now a worse team than Rutgers. Rutgers sucks. It used to be one of the garbage teams we played at home and blew out, back in the Rick N era. Hell, other UW coaches feasted on them too.) There is literally NO excuse for losing to Rutgers.
Beating a hapless one-legged barely there Michigan team, at home, does not make up for those losses.

Losing to Iowa, Rutgers, and WSU pretty much says you suck at your job, if you are a coach of the team doing the losing.
But maybe he can recruit his way out of it? (doubtful).
Now I know why so many guys left UW as soon as he was announced. Hell, one of our guys left for Oregon! Jeb or Jed or whatever his name is....probably scared them away.

BTW looking at the rest of our schedule, there is only 1 game left that looks winnable (UCLA).

We almost certainly lose to Penn State and USC. Oregon probably boatraces us.

Well, we didn't lose to USC. Ironically, the defense looks like a defense from the old Big 10 and not the old Pac 12. Pretty sure we can squeak by with one more win to get bowl eligible, but it won't be easy.

We likely aren't winning another game. But I've stopped expecting anything from this team.
Feel sorry for Bruener, he deserves better, but as long as Jub is coach I'm not that invested.
We will see if he can turn it around in 3 years. I doubt it though.

I am optimistic. I think we beat UCLA and become bowl eligible, which would be a huge step.

All I know is that if we lose to UCLA while playing AT HOME, against a team fielding a 4th string Left Tackle, Fisch will officially cement himself as the White Willingham.
Losing this game should be grounds for being fired the same night. We still have a slim lead - but at this point I don't like what I am seeing from this team and these coaches at all.
