Ducks Attack Message Board Forum

I believe our defense will slow Washington's offense down from warp speed to something more rational so the difference in whether we win or lose may well be Washington's defense against our offense. Has anyone watched most of their games and got a feeling for the quality of their defense?

this is interesting to examine: https://www.foxsports.com/college-footb ... /standings

Better than USC’s but not amazing, they’ve benefited from crappy competition. Even tonight they’re going against Arizona’s backup QB which will make them look better than they really are. They do have a much better run defense than pass defense.

Honestly I think overall Huskies are the best team in the PAC, but I’m hoping the shock of playing against a real team in Oregon will cause them to make early mistakes. A healthy Texas Tech and Colorado are far better than any team Washington has faced, especially with De Laura not playing tonight for Zona.

They've looked pretty athletic to me this season.
I've seen them score via interceptions and score on special teams kickoff returns.

Huskies offense and defense did not look amazing tonight. Gotta wonder what would’ve happened if De Laura was healthy.

My thoughts are we can't make this game seemingly any more important than the ones that follows it.

The next 3 games are going to be bar-fights (at UW, vs WSU, at Utah) and we can't get so amped for UW that we fall flat against WSU.

We need Dorlus/Burch to destroy the poodle OL. Not necessarily sacks, but forcing Penix to throw the ball sooner than he wants and out of rhythm. We should run Bo a bit in this game so that we can help our OL out a bit early on when they'll seemingly try to plug the gaps.

They lost their best D player last night. So worse than we thought they would be.

Who? I didn't see it.

Tuli. Once he was out they couldn’t stop ua

Season ending or ?

No update and doubt they will update. Just like never told us Whit is probably done for the year if rumors are true.

I'm really terrified of this game, it's against a team that somehow managed to win AT AUTZEN last year and they have been pretty great overall, plus this will definitely be the Game of the Year in the Pac-12, some people are projecting the Huskies to make it to the national championship but if we win, I expect the projections to change.

In 'coachspeak', DeBoer stated, “It’s a good time with the bye week to get him back,” DeBoer said after the game. “I don’t think it’s anything serious, but he obviously couldn’t play in the second half.”

It is supposed to be a 'lower body" injury, so the possibilities are endless.

They won because Nix got hurt and Oregon wasn't able to move the ball after that.

I think everyone would expect the projections to change if Oregon wins, that's kind of a given.

What are the rumors on Whit?
