Could Resurgent Huskies End Streak of Losing Seasons?

Could Resurgent Huskies End Streak of Losing Seasons?

The losing seasons that have permeated Husky Stadium may soon be at an end. Sure, 2009 may still get a check mark, but through seven games, it’s clear these aren’t your five year old’s Huskies. This group plays hard and has a chance to win every game they play. Consider that a year ago, Washington’s [...]

The Rivalry According to YouTube

Who knew YouTube could write blog posts? My video version of this rivalry is decidedly one-sided so you won’t find anything remotely Husky-centric. Then again, YouTube is a modern invention and, considering Oregon’s won 10 of the last 14, Washington’s better days would probably be hard to find in the digital realm. No explanation necessary [...]

Washington Huskies: An Updated Historical Perspective

This is kind of lazy. I did this same post before last year’s Husky game. But seeing as how nothing has changed with the team’s results, why should my content? Special thanks to jhowell.net for having an unmatched database of information that allows me to check data all the way back to 1916. Last losing [...]

For a Week, Let's Make Believe There's Still a Rivalry

Oregon vs. Washington – one of my favorite weeks of the year – has finally arrived. There’s a problem, though. I forgot how to care. After all those years of Washington telling us it isn’t a rivalry, I might just agree. The score since 2004 is 199-85, Oregon. The head-to-head tally is Oregon 5, Washington [...]

It's the Flomax Pac-10 Midseason Report

It's the Flomax Pac-10 Midseason Report

With the generosity of everyone’s favorite one-time (current?) ESPN halftime sponsor, this year’s midseason report is again brought to you by Flomax. Of course, with the economy as it is, they were all out of sponsorship money and could only offer a box of rubber gloves. On with it. The Can’t Miss Pac-10 Bowl Lineup [...]

Ranking the Pac-10 – Week 6

The Pac-10 is messy. Very, very messy. Not even Bounty (you know the quilted quicker picker upper) could handle this filthy, disgusting mess. Fortunately, Oregon is bringing clarity to it all with its astounding dominance, but in an attempt to provide motivation through my overly important blogging, they have to settle for second. 1. USC [...]

The Week in Links

Welcome to Game Day. For the many of you who haven’t watched a live Oregon game on TV since the trip to Boise, trust me, the view via plasma has become a lot better since then. You’ll enjoy. As for me, I’m giving that nice couch groove some time off and am probably figuring out [...]

Pitiful (Again) Pac-10 Picks – Week 6

I just can’t put two weeks of football prognosticating together. I barely got above .500 thanks to some questionable refereeing at Notre Dame (and before Touchdown Jesus no less). It’s a light week of competition with three teams resting easy. Last Week: 3-2 Season: 27-10 (1st week was unpublished) Oregon @ UCLA Finally, the Ducks [...]

Injuries Schminjuries

Tim Tebow has been laid up. Same with Sam Bradford and Jermaine Gresham. Dez Bryant just got a year long suspension. Rob Gronkowski? Out for the year. And on top of that, 50% of the Pac-10 (including Oregon) has dealt with some variety of quarterback injuries in 2009. Point is, everybody’s dealing with it. In [...]
