I missed the Emory dunk that everyone is clamoring about. Does anyone have a link to a highlight that shows it? I checked kezi and they don't have it. It isn't on youtube either.
The deer in the head light look the husky players had last night
was priceless. They had no answer and no clue as to what was
happening to them. Because they beat Oregon before i think they
thought all they had to do was show up and win. A very good game
plan on defense by DA.
The impressive thing to me was that Emory was so far ahead of everybody... He was back on his feet and the neares defender was still around the 3 point line.
Great recognition and execution by the Ducks. All.Night.Long.
Autzen Stadium... Where great teams go to die...Hard!
very relieved emory has broken out the last three weeks. he'll be very important not only next season, but how we finish this year. i mean, i love singler as much as the next guy, and i've obviously been sim's biggest cheerleader for years, but as a team we lack athleticism and emory can certainly provide some.

This is where DA separates himself by a mile from EK. EK would never be capable of pulling off a showing like this. Perhaps a couple times with our insanely talented team of Lukex2, Fred, and company. Just saying, Washington is an offensive machine. Oregon smacked down those puppies.

But the announcers told us repeatedly that getting to the gym 40 minutes late is why the Huskies couldn't execute. If Romar would have had the normal two pregame meetings instead of only one we would have seen an offensive Juggernaut and I'm not sure Oregon would have scored at all. .

I don't feel like they were using that as a reason at all, just mentioning it because it was worth mentioning. Calabro does an excellent job of calling an even game and he had some awesome calls for a lot of our big plays. Personally, I've never liked our announcers from Jerry to Joe because they are either too busy telling you how much they love Oregon that they forget to tell you what's going on or they can't even tell what's going on to begin with.

You mean like we have done a bunch this year, a lot of times at the end of the first half?

I was talking about having a comfortable lead in the 2nd half before giving it away. Sorry, if I wasn't more clear.
In all our 7 losses, we never had more than a 5 point lead going into the 2nd half.
Took me about 10 minutes to skim thru some of our losses with ernie's last 5-6 years to find these examples. Happened frequently with Ernie. DA is much better at sustaining a second half lead.
Just went through all our losses under Altman. I think the largest 2nd half lead we've ever had and eventually lost was 6 points. Lol. If I could get a dollar for everytime EK had a larger lead, but lost us a game.

You might be able to buy a round for us at Rennies!
Like we all know, EK's teams lived & died by the 3. As soon as we went cold from outside it was game over because there would be no adjustments, we'd keep chucking 3s & we never played any D so the other team would get right back in it.
Contrast that with last night. We played incredible D throughout, with an actual plan & strategy, not just hoping they'd miss. And in the 2nd half when we cooled off, which is to be expected, we went down low a ton, took the ball to the rack & kept up the pressure D. There's no comparison between the 2 coaches.
