Around SBN: The Week In Worst: When Baseball Goes Wrong

The Kickoff: 2,921 days and counting

It's time to give that dilapidated piece of crap in Montlake a proper send-off.

It's hate week. For the last few years, thanks to Takimoto, we've called this week "Happy I Hate washington Week," because it was happy and fun to beat the hell out of a large number of hapless teams led by Keith Gilbertson and Tyrone Willingham, culminating in the 0-12 season that will live forever.

But this year, something has changed. There is no happy. There is nothing good about what has happened in Seattle. washington, led by Steve Sarkisian, is suddenly marginally competitive again. They're bowl eligible before November, and the cloud of smug is already wafting over the Northwest. Not even a 65-21 shellacking at the hands of Stanford could change that.

Nothing will shake these people from their little world of fantasy, where 7 straight losses by 20 or more points are dismissed as if they never happened.

The Ducks have not lost to washington in 2,921 days. It's not long enough. This game will be the last game ever to to be played in Husky Stadium before it is torn down and rebuilt over the next year. We get the privilege of watching the Ducks give it the send-off that it deserves, for Husky fans will refuse to remember for the rest of time.

After the jump, we'll take a look at the key players for washington.

Star-divide

KEY PLAYERS FOR wASHINGTON'S OFFENSE:

Chris Polk: Despite Petros' incoherent ramblings during Saturday's broadcasts, he's not the best RB in the Pac-12. But he is pretty great. He makes the washington offense go. Without him, they would be nothing, and he is well suited to run behind a poor offensive line. He has enough speed to make you pay, and is bruising between the tackles. He can also catch the ball well out of the backfield. The Ducks need to stop him early.

Keith Price: No Husky fan would have thought that their QB play would improve after losing Jake Locker, but that's because they are delusional. washington's offense is improved this year because Kieth Price is a legitimately good QB. He's pacing Darron Thomas in QB rating (both at 162), and is completing over 66% of his passes.

Austin Seferian-Jenkins:  While washington has two very good receivers, Seferian-Jenkins is one of their most talented offensive players. The true freshman is 6'7" and an incredible talent. He's the Huskies 3rd leading receiver and has 4 TDs. He'll match up well against Oregon's linebacker or safeties, and will present a matchup problem all day long. He'll will be annoyingly good for a few years.

KEY PLAYERS ON THE wASHINGTON DEFENSE:

.... I'm thinking.... Still thinking...

The Huskies have a number of good players on defense, but they are far from consistent. 3 of their top 4 tackles are defensive backs. They have a rushing defense that ranks 82nd in the country according to S&P+. They've faced only two competent offenses this year. They gave up 309 yards at Nebraska, and 446 yards at Stanford. Expect their secondary to keep racking up those tackles.

Husky fan born in Oregon wants articles like this to be stopped on both sides!

I was born in Coquille, raised in Beaverton, but I have been a Husky since 1970. In my youth I loved the Ducks and wanted to play there. After the service in the 1960s I went to the UW and fell in love with it. I love the Northwest and fear the UO – UW hatred will result is people getting hurt. It has happened in many sports around the world.

I believe the hatred was spawned by Oregon’s envy and UW disrespect in the 60s, 70s, and 80s and increased by Husky embarrassment and Duck arrogance in the 90s through the last 2,921 days.

I fear the hate will get people hurt now that UW is now getting better causing more unhealthy competition.

I applaud the Ducks success and wish them well. There is nothing like the tradition of college football, but if the UO and UW continue the hate, it is my with that they not play football. This just makes me sad.

I'd still count the 1917 win as a Rose Bowl win,

Growing up in Europe I have seen first hand the problems of Hooliganism in Sports. Generally, hooligans that fight do not care about the sport. They only use the affiliation as an excuse to kick another bunch of idiots (using the same excuse) asses.

If this rivalry turns into that it will be a sad day in College Sports.

Simply said, they kicked us when we were down and now it’s just redressing the balance.

The hate is for the program, not the people

I think it’s overall a healthy thing and becomes a part of the lore and traditions at either school. It goes over the line when cars get keyed or people get assaulted.

Delusional Dawg?

I’ve been following these Pac 12 games for one half a season now…so I am an expert. But being a Dawg fan have virtually zero objectivity….That out of the way, I must disagree with you on a few things. 1) “despite Petros’ incoherent ramblings”……Polk is the best running back in the Pac 12… Who is better? No, wait… I think I know? Not that it matters…but this is the same logic/debate I remember back in the days of Barry Sanders vs Emmitt Smith. Nobody really thinks Smith would’ve equalled Sanders performances while playing on Detroits offenses? While Barry Sanders playing on those Dallas teams? End of debate. Lamichael James is an explosive burner who is deserving of whatever accolades he gets as a player….but again, put him on the UW offense and would he not struggle to come close to his stats as a Duck? I think he would make amazing plays that Polk can’t…but overall,the huge holes he commonly exploits are just not found behind the young dawgs O line. 2) The next thing I disagree with you about? I’m thinking….still thinking….

by gliderdawg on Oct 31, 2011 12:03 PM PDT reply actions  

Wait

so the quick, explosive, and shifty back Sanders is Polk in this analogy? While the straight ahead, more powerful yet slower runner Smith is James? How does this work again?

huskies need to face the fact that their best running back in years still isn’t as good as Oregon’s. I don’t even know why this is a debate.

I guess it’s possible. Even though they’re different styles, I think Ron Dayne might end up being a good comparison for LMJ when his career is over.

Wait...Let me try again?

First, my point was the “laughably awesome failed analogy”of the two hall of fame backs Sanders vs Smith ….to point out (what I thought would be obvious to you?) that if you were to trade places…(this is where an “imagination” is required!) that is, in other words, take Polk and put him on the Ducks…and take James and put him on the Dawgs….(I know I’ve lost many of you at this point…but for the rest who are still getting it…) James would not produce as many yards as Polk because he makes his yards in huge chunks…in huge space…that means huge holes. Those holes aren’t as required in Polks power game….this doesn’t PROVE that Polks the better back…(I think the NFL will answer those ?s) but the inability (or unwilllingness) to even "get the point " of the analogy is pretty good evidence of who is “delusional”….? Both backs are great…but, Polk (and Sanders) are better.

I suggest you watch more Oregon football

LMJ gets plenty of yards going straight up the gut, few runners hit the hole harder than him. Plus he runs over people, the Stanford game last year is a great example. I remember sitting in the stands in Tennessee and the announcer was in disbelief about LMJ taking the ball straight up the middle running over the interior front 7 and then doing it again and again.

James has never broken a tackle, or made a big run with no space or room to do that. He just gets a huge wide lane to run through.

You are actually digging on James for what many of us think is his best trait.

He hits the hole hard up the middle, and get yards after contact. Polk is good, very good even, he probably starts at most Pac 12 schools, but not at Oregon. LaMichael is greatest of all time good. You cannot say Polk is that good. Honestly, do you think he is better than say Napolean Kaufman was? I don’t, but he was a different type of runner wasn’t he?

Dude...seriously...you need...more ellipses...

And yes it would take a GREAT imagination to think that Polk is better than James. Your analogy was flawed because you’re trying to fit a round RB into a square game plan. Polk hasn’t been the feature of the husky offense until this year. Teams haven’t even concerned themselves with shutting him down until now. And he still doesn’t have the yards that James has had.

On top of that, to compare the two teams is laughable. Oregon is, and has been better. That would be like me comparing Payton Manning’s stats to Matt Hasselbeck’s. I’m glad you want to go ahead and concede that Oregon is the better team, it’s refreshing of you husky fans to do so, but don’t expect us to then think that if Polk was on Oregon he’d have the same or better stats than James.

Oh, please...

I hate the Sanders v Smith argument. Why? Everyone claims that the Cowboys’ OLine was so amazing. Like they drafted their entire line with top picks. Look at their Pro Bowl offensive linemen and tell me how many of them were top-10 picks. Emmitt was by far the more complete back, and played with more heart. He never quit on his team.

That Cowboys line was one of the best ever to play the game.

Regardless of draft position. Robert Gallery was a top pick. Mandarich. Etc. That being said, Emmit was a heck of a runner.

It's called a "team."

The small minded can say one is overrated because of the other, but the fact is, it was one of the all time great lines and Emmett is one of the all-time great backs. And Aikman didn’t exactly hit the turf a whole lot, which speaks well to both the line and Emmett’s underrated abilities as a blocker.

And I don’t like Oregon…but, Oregon has been the better team for many years…So, LMJ=great back on the better team…Who’s better? Polk? James? I think it’s a push….NFL will probably have to be the final judge? LMJ is amazingly explosive! Polk is beastly!
