I think the Huskies would probably ranked down if Oklahoma didn't lose yesterday. UW just doesn't look very convincing as of late. But a W is a W.
Yup. Their offense looked almost unstoppable most of the time before the last few games. It's just been off against ASU and Stanford. The O-line hasn't been as protective of Penix the last two games, and he's also missed on throws he usually makes, especially tonight. The defense, which looked pretty good last week, left a lot to be desired in the secondary tonight.
I kind of wonder if they lost a bit of their focus and mojo since the big win against Oregon, thought they could just mail it in against ASU and Stanford. But for those teams beating a top rated UW team could well have been the high point of their season. There just seem to be a lack of discipline and sense of urgency recently, and lesser teams are taking advantage of it.
I don't know. USC certainly seems beatable this year, but I hope UW brings their A game. I think I fear Oregon State the most of our remaining regular season games.
We'll see. They've got to get better fast, though. That's for sure.
