Fuskies writers are making themselves look bad this week, this writer is saying our dominance is just about our facilities. How about we have better coaches & better players

I enjoy the caption for the first picture.

Husky Stadium 2.0, opening in 2013, will allow the Huskies to keep up with the Ducks in the college sports arms race.

Uhhh, wrong. You’ll catch up to where we were 10 years ago, while we continue to move forward. Nice work guys.

We will have just finished installing our fiber optic turf, where we can change the color of the turf based on whatever the hell we feel like.

I would be totaly ok with it if, and only if

We kept the color scheme we have currently. I do NOT want to become the boise of the Pac. The only reason to install something like this would be for something like halftime/pregame shows. That would be awesome.

between our two teams

Which was the last one to win a major BCS bowl?
In the last 10 years:
How many conference championships have you won?
How many times did your all pro QB jack Loker beat UO?
How many national coach of the year awards have UW coaches won?
How many national title games have you played in?
I’ll be waiting to hear which of these UW was more dominant in.

by echo31 on Nov 2, 2011 10:12 AM PDT up reply actions  

Well, over the last 10 years it has been the darkest stretch in UW history. But we can compare if you want too.

In the last 10 years:

BCS Bowl victories= UO 1 UW 1
Holiday Bowl victories= UO 1 UW 1
Sun Bowl victories = UO 1 UW 0
Falling on their faces in a bowl game = UO 6 UW 1

So when you match the greatest 10 stretch in the history of your program with the worst 10 year stretch in UW history, all you have to show for it is 1 extra Sun Bowl win, and a bunch of failures in bowl games. Yippy.

Well not exactly.

In 2000 it was a 3 way tie for the Pac 10 title with UW winning the tie breaker and getting to rep the conference in the Rose Bowl, which UW won.

And yes, there was a winless season, hence why I refer to it as the darkest stretch in UW football history.

Good point.

The Rose Bowl win was in 2001, but the season was not.

by Mind of no mind on Nov 2, 2011 7:52 PM PDT up reply actions  

Yes.

Because what do you have to show for those Pac 10 titles? Other than a Fiesta bowl win, which really should have been a Rose Bowl, there isn’t much there.

As a Seahawk fan, it’s pretty unsatisfying to tout a bunch of division titles and a Super Bowl loss as being the pinnacle of our achievement. Not to say they meant nothing, but every single one of those seasons ended the same way. With a loss.

Now if you compare USC in that same time period, minus the sanctions, then there is something to be envious of.

And I’m not even getting into possible sanctions for Oregon, since I’m a little doubtful that there will be much there, but until it’s resolved, we won’t know the full story of how to view some of Oregons recent achievements.

Ducks GOOOOD. Fuskies BAAAAAD.

by BigGreenWreckingMachine on Nov 2, 2011 7:33 PM PDT up reply actions  

My point is,

that during that stretch which is god awful for the Huskies, the ducks have managed 1 extra Sun Bowl victory and 5 bowl losses.

Not saying that I wouldn’t rather have the last 10 years that the Ducks had over what the Huskies had, but the gap isn’t as large as some make it out to be.

by Mind of no mind on Nov 2, 2011 7:36 PM PDT up reply actions  

And your selective reasoning presumes

that any of us care about college football’s broken postseason. Most college football fans realize the regular season, the conference season, and rivalry games are more important than the outcome of the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl. The NCG is nice but we all know it’s mythical and laughably flawed.

This is pretty well covered territory around here

But the results of bowl games don’t amount to squat in trends of recruiting, rankings, etc. Apart from the NCG these days, not many remember the outcomes anyway. I would be willing to bet you had to look up how many bowl losses UO had, and I very you were surprised at the number you found. You’re welcome to care about the Sun Bowl, but I simply don’t give a fuck about it. The only thing any college football team can control is it’s regular season and conference outcomes. The rest, it’s just window dressing. So I disagree that’s you have to win your bowl games.

And FWIW, I remember Nebraska trouncing you guys last year more vividly than your bowl win against them, because I actually cared about the outcome of the first game,.so I watched it. What third tier bowl was that, anyway?

I actually think that was the Holiday Bowl

We should give these pieces of malamut shit some credit for winning the holiday bowl against a clearly better football time who didn’t give a fuck about playing a team for the second time that year.

by NICKPAPAGEORGIOTHEDUCK on Nov 2, 2011 8:33 PM PDT up reply actions  

You're welcome to disagree. But you won't sway me to think it means nothing.

The mid to late 90’s were pretty tough as a UW fan, because even though we were going to bowl games every year, we were always ending the year on a loss.

And yes, I had to look up to see the exact number of Oregon losses, but no I was not suprised by the total. I enjoy watching Oregon lose in bowl games, and I’ve been happy much more often than I’ve been disappointed.

And a lot of fans care about bowl results, bowl records are a good way to compare conference strength. I’ll watch any Pac 10/12 bowl game and root for the conference (except Oregon). And I know I’m not alone in this.

by Mind of no mind on Nov 2, 2011 8:55 PM PDT up reply actions  

That's fine

So by your one metric of bowl success over the past ten years, UW is not far behind UO. By basically every other metric of success and failure over the past ten years, we are absolutely miles ahead of you. And by the absolutely most important metric of relative team strength—head-to-head record—the last seven years should remind you just how big that gap is. In case you’ve forgotten, it’s FOUR FUCKING TOUCHDOWNS PER GAME.

Now with mustache guarantee!

by HoodRiverDuck on Nov 2, 2011 8:59 PM PDT up reply actions  

Yeah, there is no denying the head-to-head record.

Like I said, it’s been a dark time for the Huskies. Thankfully we’re out of the gutter, and hopefully on our way back to making the series respectable again.

My overall point isn’t that the Huskies weren’t really bad for the last decade, but more that the Ducks were good, but not great.

by Mind of no mind on Nov 2, 2011 9:15 PM PDT up reply actions  

Then you should've just said that.

We’ve had two great seasons in the last ten (2001, 2010), one that could have been great (2007), and many good ones. If that equates to good, not great, I’m fine with that.

But the Huskies have been fucking rank until last year, and you know it. So “the gap isn’t that big” just doesn’t make any sense to me.

The gap is smaller this year. I will grant you that.

No, it's better to go and lose than to not go at all.

I even said I’d trade our previous decade of results for yours. I’m just saying that while our last decade was pretty sad, and while you guys own the head-to-head record against us in that time period, what the ducks accomplished overall in college football in that time period is not all you guys make it out to be when holding it over our heads. And really your best year in that span (fiesta bowl) was matched by the Huskies (Rose Bowl).

Your NCG appearance is also impressive, but if it felt anything like XL did, it’s a blessing and a curse to have hanging over your head. Everything else just seems meh when you look at the overall picture.

by Mind of no mind on Nov 3, 2011 2:07 AM PDT up reply actions  

Dixon in '07 was Meh?

‘05 we played great all year, with our only loss being to USC with Bush, et al. We then played Oklahoma very tough in the Holiday Bowl and they had Adrian Peterson on that team if I’m not mistaken.

’08 we were a top ten team by the end of the year and beat a very solid Oklahoma team that had Dez Bryant on it.

’09 We were pretty damn good by the end of the year and lost the Rose Bowl because Vince Young dressed up as Terrelle Pryor for the game.

Last year we went to the Natty and lost on a last second field goal to a on hundred and eighty thousand dollar Hulk, who is arguably the rookie of the year thus far in the NFL.

So what the hell are you even saying. Yeah, we don’t have a National Title. But the only bowl game we’ve been whooped off the field in was the BYU game.

The last time we got blown out in any game was at USC, midway through the ’08 season. How many games have the Huskies been blown out in Since November of ’08?

What teams in college football have had a better

last 3-4 seasons than Oregon. Who has been more consistent and achieved higher accomplishments?

1) Alabama
2) LSU ?
3) fBSU – this is a stretch, but I’ll put it cause their record is likely better, they beat us, and they won a BCS game
4) Ohio St ? –
5) You could argue Texas, but they’ve been underwhelming the last few years
6) Arkansas – maybe

-Not sure who I’m forgetting here. Oregon has been a top ten caliber team every season since ‘08. We haven’t lost a game by more than 14 points since ’08. Only have 2 losses over that span of double digits (fBSU and LSU).

Should I keep going?

by NICKPAPAGEORGIOTHEDUCK on Nov 3, 2011 8:38 AM PDT up reply actions  

If that's true...

Then this point has absolutely no validity.

My point is, that during that stretch which is god awful for the Huskies, the ducks have managed 1 extra Sun Bowl victory and 5 bowl losses.

If you get called on one thing, you say “my point is this”, someone counters that, you say “I’m just saying this” which is different than your original point.

So what exactly IS your point? That the ceilings of each team have been matched in the last 10 years? (Which isn’t even true because getting TO the NCG is more impressive than winning the Fiesta/Rose/Sugar/Orange)

Every point I’ve seen from Huskies have always included a glaring omission of detail.

I’m not accusing you of this, but this is one of the most glaring:

Rose Bowl > Fiesta Bowl. I’ll even CONCEDE this point. With all benefits and rewards being equal, the Rose Bowl has the history. What’s the omission? The 2001-02 Rose Bowl was the NCG. If it was at the Orange Bowl, Oregon would have gone to the Rose Bowl.

We were standing (I’d say sitting, but I don’t think we sat down once we got to our seats) about mid-way up the student section. About two minutes before kickoff, I realized I had to pee. But we were packed so tightly, that I didn’t want to move. I might never get back to that spot again. Well, with the freezing rain coming down, and the game being as intense as it was, I just never got the chance to go. Even at halftime, I didn’t want to move.

I held it the whole game, and practically ran back to the dorms afterward. I think my piss lasted about 2 and a half minutes.

I never soiled myself at a game but did have a few drunken missteps

I once snuck a bottle of vodka into the game (shocking) and was drinking it with a 20 oz sprite bottle. As the game went on and I became more incompetent I made a poor choice. Holding the sprite between thumb and forefinger and the vodka between forefinger and middle I decided a tasty swig of sprite would hit the spot. I raised my hand to drink, tilted the sprite to my mouth and poured vodka right into my open eye. Good times

So

The problem is the exponential growth. The 490,000 people / day rate you’re citing depends on the size of the current population. When the population was lower, the corresponding birth rate was significantly lower as well.

I doubt that it’s a whole lot lower than it is now. Seven years is a long time in football, but not a long time in human history.

Also, many of the people born in the past seven years haven’t survived, but again, no data.

I still think it’s well above one billion.

by Quack Addict on Nov 2, 2011 11:46 AM PDT up reply actions   1 recs

The assumption of exponential growth says

that the birth rate is proportional to the current population.

So if, at 7 billion people, the growth rate is 490,000 people / day, then in 2003 (when the population was 6.3 billion), then the growth rate should have been roughly 6.3/7 * 490,000 = 434,000 / day.

Since the world’s population has grown steadily, the growth rate has grown steadily too. This means that if we use the 434,000 / day estimate, we get a pretty severe underestimate of the true value.

That estimate, by the way? Still nearly 1.27 billion, and again, to stress — that number is low.

The real answer, however, is Fuck washington, as always.

From the "Husky Hall of Shame"
A Seattle area mortician had a new apprentice who was learning the embalming ropes. He walked into the embalming room where a cadaver was lying on the table. Thinking he knew enough now to begin the procedure without his boss, he began examining the body. He rolled it over and to his amazement, there was a cork in its rear end. Mystified, he pulled it out, and immediately heard the University of Washington fight song come out the cadaver’s butt. Startled by what had happened, he shoved the cork back into the cadaver and ran up the stairs to find his mentor.“Sir, you’ve got to come down and help me! I’ve just seen something I can’t believe,” he cried. Annoyed by the naivete of his assistant, he followed him downstairs. “There! Look at the cork in the ass of that body”, said the assistant. “I couldn’t imagine what it was doing there so I pulled it out. Please, you do it.” The mortician was a bit surprised to see the cork, too, so he walked to the table and removed the cork. Once again, the University of Washington fight song started playing. Exasperated, he replaced the cork in its appointed position, turned to his assistant and said: What’s so surprising about that? I’ve heard thousands of assholes sing that song."

Jury Duty

I’m on jury duty but they have wifi and cable, but they have sub titles on with the sound off… Maybe the cc service is messed up, but they just said that Phil Simms said he’s not impressed with Andrew Luck. He hasn’t seen him “make any big time NFL throws”. Combine that with him getting into it with Desmond Howard because Dez said his son at Tenn was a bad quarterback, and old Simms is looking like quite the genius.

Did anyone catch on Gameday a few weeks back when they picked the Tenn game they let Desmond go first because Simms was starting due to injury to the starter? Desmond said “the best quarterback in the whole SEC, Matt Simms…” lol. That’s right, Phil, your son is awesome and Andrew Luck isn’t. “Experts”…

Huff

I know he hasn’t caught a lot of passes, but twice lately I’ve noticed him destroying guys on blocks. Nice to see a guy continuing to work hard even when the ball isn’t coming his way often. It would be nice to see him get a big yardage game as well. I think DT is going to have a big rushing game. I think they are going to crash on LMJ to make DT prove he is a threat rushing.

Chip's presser...

I love his response to Goe’s question about circling games on the calendar. Basically, if you haven’t seen it, he shoots it down by saying, “I can’t believe you guys still ask me this question.” Except he keeps going and gives a great example of how crappy a coach would be if they talked about certain games as being more important than others. That was awesome.

But the best part was AJ Jacobsen’s question which came right after (I think it was about Michael Clay), and how Kelly says, “Good question…” Hehe. Oh, Chip.

I'm becoming very comfortable with my decision not to take you up on that ticket.

 I admire the fortitude of JPDX and Shufelt. I strongly suggest you sit between them.

I say we lay odds on how long into Saturday it is before JPDX and Shufelt kill him themselves. I’ve got 7:45pm – I don’t think he makes it out of the first quarter.

Less inhibition means murder more likely. I think he doesn’t make it inside the gates.

IN concept I can see something like this being very funny, sarcastic, light hearted ect. But the direction they took seems to me like it was malicious and attacking. Very little humor there and a lot of bitterness.

I think it's kinda funny.

I think this has gone on long enough with Cliff that we should all take a step back and try to gain a little objectivity. Cliff is a young kid. He’s a hell of a football player. And he’s made some bad choices. I wouldn’t be surprised if Cliff himself laughed at this when he read or heard about it.

Besides, going to that webpage is an ironic form of comic gold (please don’t tell me this isn’t real irony, I know):

At the top right corner of the page they have a picture of Cliff Harris running the ball. Funny that he is so popular that they used him as the poster-boy, but then are attempting to bash him.

In the end, who really cares what people say about Cliff? I care that he is doing what is best for HIMSELF. That’s all I truly care about.

I don't really like either of them (FEI or S&P)

I don’t think either really pass the eye test for me.

Their filtering of drives kills the Ducks, as any 2nd half drives with a lead >16 are taken out.

I think they’re trying to do much at once with their measurements.
