I think score and just a change of pace!

Fake punt!!

The commentators said that Plough planned to let Harper play the second half since the game is out of reach.

He pulled the rex and porter too huh

Why does Washington still have their starters playing when Plough is substituting?

Wants to work on some stuff?

Please tell me the Connor bros are just sitting because the game is out of reach.

Important to remember the other Big Sky vs P5/Boise games looked like this…

Neither was injured in the first half. Plough is just giving some other players some playing time while not risking injury to some of our key players.

I was interested in your question and looked into it:

I hope our athletics can one day in my lifetime compete at this level…

I hope you're young enough to possibly see it happen. I'm afraid, at my age, that I'll be long gone....

Harper looks nice

Well, I saw the 49-10 score and didn't bother to turn the TV on again. That was the score I "predicted"
and now I see that it's 63-10. Looks like they still had their first string in until it was 56-10. I consider this very poor sportsmanship by Washington's coach. Something my erstwhile colleagues at UW would have decried despite being loyal Huskies.

It doesn't help that we didn't stop a single drive. 10 drives, 10 TDs.

UW just tied their all-time high point total with 70. We were unable to stop a single drive...

Cleeland in at QB….from Seattle area?

Yes, I noticed that Washington never punted.

Portland

Thanks. Looks like I guessed right.

8 rushing TD's by UW is the most for them since 1951.

I thought we might get beat by 40 but I didn't see 60 coming...

Boston College transfer looked pretty bad. Kind of stood out like a sore thumb

Technically we played a closer game than Oklahoma State did with Oregon or Akron with Nebraska.

Didn't stay up for the game due to having a busy Sunday slate, but woof... I knew we would lose, but that's a rough look. I think this is a good time to have a bye week. It will give the team an extended period to look at what went right and what went wrong against Mercer, Utah Tech, and Washington and try to figure something out going into conference play. We have a lot to fix up, that's for sure.

Our grad transfers on defense are making a big impact, I hope the reserves develop. We had some defensive stops early but would commit a penalty or not put 3 consecutive stops together.

Tackles: solo / total
Batson -- 7 / 11
Riddick -- 5 / 8
Connors -- 5 / 8
Ruchena -- 2 / 4
Cofield -- 3 / 4
McCormick - 2 / 4

Kai Acai picked up 18 yds on 4 carries, Cleveland 2 of 3 at QB.

Did Psyk play?

That was a tough one to watch. Their length at DB never gave out WRs any space and we never got the TEs into the pass game. Didn’t expect to run much so the lack of offense wasn’t a shock.

On defense, we just couldn’t put together 3 stops (4 on our side of the field) - we’d get close, and either they made a great athletic play (QB is really good), or the RB would break a tackle and keep drives moving.

Special teams haven’t been great except for the faked punt. Stupid pooch kick out of bounces, punt return for TD are the latest.

Brutal opening 3 weeks. Lick our wounds, get healthy and get the offense clicking. Ready for a home game with a nice, loud crowd!

This was different, not like Cal, San Jose State, Tulsa.
