So great to see a quarterback playing in the system and not trying to play hero ball.

They are toying with our defense.

Well this was respectible and showed we will play hard to the end. Just don't see a lot of wins out there for us.

Much closer than I had dared to hope. There may be no such thing as moral victories, but....

Clean up some penalties and figure out how to put some pressure on qb.

Slow starts. If we can pick it up in the 1st we'll have more than a chance. Holding the #1 pass offense to 18 points under their avg is a good start.

Turned out much closer than I thought so credit goes to the coaches and players for fighting until the end.

But Udub is a level above and really dominated the LOS for most of the game.

Wish we didn’t have to play SC next week. Pennix then the Highsman Trophy winner? Yikes.

Why even bother rushing 3 like the UA does. Why not just put all 11 back in coverage?

This has bothered me since the Stoop's era. Don't give up the homerun ball, just let the other team complete 7 yard passes under coverage and just stroll down the field and score.

Really need a football guy to explain to me why rushing 3 is ever good.

GODDAMN IT!

The FIRST sentence in PAc12 After Dark was "...Washington having a tough matchup against Arizona State..." - Kyle Draper

I know we belly-ache about this all the time, but does anybody EVER mistake Penn and Penn State? Oklahoma and Oklahoma State? Michigan and Michigan State?

Fifta made some rookie mistakes but he can learn. He looked good out there.

Got to give Fifta credit too. First start against a top 10 team. Overall was impressive - especially those corner end zone throws.

I do wish he was 3-4 inches taller.

I mentioned this in season thread. It is extra offensive that it happened on PAC 12 network show. I’ve come to expect it on FESPN.
