Can't Miss It: Thanksgiving Eve
With the Husky football starting this weekend, we thought it would be a good time to preview the season. Helping us out are our two college football experts and die-hard Husky fans, Happy Times Carl and Deputy Downer.
Happy Times Carl: Welcome back college football, how we have missed you so. As soon as I am done here, I am grabbing my sleeping bag and heading down to Montlake, because I cannot wait for this Husky season. Sure the past two seasons haven’t been that great, but Coach Willingham has put his stamp on this team, and we are once again heading in the right direction. Isaiah Stanback is poised to have the type of season we've been waiting for, and our defense is a force to be reckoned with. Bow Down to Washington.
Deputy Downer: Let's get this over with; I'm getting my results back from the free clinic after this. Academic problems and injuries are already eating the team alive. Our ridiculously thin o-line means, just like last year, teams will stack their line against us, so that Stanback will be spending more time running for his life and less time passing. It will be another anemic offensive season.
SAN JOSE STATE 09/02
Happy Times Carl: There is no way we lose to this team. Sorry Sports Illustrated, with all due respect to those who are mentally challenged, you are insane. WIN
Deputy Downer: Great, one of our only wins will come against a team that recently had a one-legged player. Put that fun fact in the recruiting book. WIN
@OKLAHOMA 09/09
HTC: We're sure to get rodgered and hammered all afternoon, but it sure will be fun to watch the Huskies battle such a storied program. LOSS
DD: The only reason we'll come back on the field for the second half is because it's in the rule book. It's going to be an asshole stomping all day long. LOSS
FRESNO STATE 09/16
HTC: Their fans are very supportive, but this mid-major ended the season with losses to Nevada, Louisiana Tech, and Tulsa. WIN
DD: We'll be an underdog at home to a WAC team. I don't know who is reaching for a gun faster, me or Don James. LOSS
UCLA 09/23
HTC: The first Pac-10 game of the season will be a victory. WIN
DD: We had them all but beat last year and still couldn't get it done. LOSS
@ARIZONA 09/30
HTC: The Wildcats have turned it around and good for them. At least it will be a dry loss. LOSS
DD: I'd rather smash my face against a nail-covered cactus than watch the Huskies get pushed around all night. LOSS
@USC 10/07
HTC: They are not what they used to be, but they will still put a hurting on us. At least the boys in purple and gold will give 110%. LOSS
DD: No Bush. No Leinart. We'll still lose. LOSS
OREGON STATE 10/14
HTC: The Huskies will snatch a victory against this former Pac-10 door mat. WIN
DD: A year ago today my wife left me. LOSS
@CAL 10/21
HTC: At least the team will be able to enjoy the delicious salads and sandwiches at Intermetzos before the Bears subject them to a hippie-sized pounding. LOSS
DD: Hey Berkeley fans, beating us isn't going to stop all the suffering in the world. Nothing ever will. LOSS
ARIZONA STATE 10/28
HTC: The Sun Devils quarterback situation could have been avoided with a little communication. Always be open with your friends and co-workers. Just a friendly tip :). LOSS
DD: Provided our dead bodies aren't lying under some Iranian missile, we will watch the Huskies get whomped. LOSS
@OREGON 11/04
HTC: The Ducks will make it quack to quack to quack victories with a win here. LOSS
DD: We are going to get pounded by a team wearing DayGlo yellow uniforms. LOSS
STANFORD 11/11
HTC: Stanback will put up Tui-like numbers on this blustery fall day. WIN
DD: Someone has to win, right? WIN
WAZZU 11/18
HTC: There is no way we lose to the Cougs. WIN
DD: There is no way we lose to the Cougs. WIN
HTC: 6-6 and a trip to the Las Vegas Bowl are just the start of things for Tyrone and company.
DD: 3 and…who gives a crap. Christ, I wish I were dead.
