Grading the Game: Iowa
Last week I wrote that I wondered what this offense would be able to accomplish against the first truly good defense it faced. Now we know: three points in the first half and zero run game to speak of. Somehow that wasn’t even the worst part. The defense, the one unit I’d been willing to […]
Monday Dots: Episode 06 – A New Hope
Happy Monday Dawg fans, and welcome to today’s Dots. I’m not here to talk about the defense getting run over by Iowa (repeatedly), the defense having no idea where receivers were on TD throws (frequently), or the defense guilty of poor tackling (often enough to look bad). I’m not here to talk about the image […]
Recruiting Roundup: Several Husky Commits Continue To Shine On The Field
Happy Sunday Husky fans. Hopefully everyone was able to de-compress yesterday after another rough outing for the team. With a game on Friday there weren’t many recruits at the game (probably a good thing). Today I wanted to share some updates on some of the Huskies commits and how they are doing in their senior […]
Huskies Crushed by Hawkeyes 41-24
Quarterback Elijah Brown led UW’s only three touchdown drives while filling in for an injured Demond Williams. His performance was the lone positive on a night when Iowa walked into Husky Stadium and rocked Washington 41-24. Friday night’s outing was Washington’s worst performance of the season thus far, and there is plenty of reason to […]
Week 6 Open Thread
Welcome to the open thread, the home for discussion for all non-UW games this weekend. With the Huskies playing on Friday, you can check in any time you like on Saturday, but you can never leave. Saturday Early – There are no ranked vs. ranked games in the early slot, but Indiana at Nebraska could […]
The Prediction – UW vs. Iowa
Andrew Berg I’m sure I’m not the only one who raised an eyebrow when I saw that the Dawgs were favored over a ranked Iowa team. There are a few factors that work in UW’s favor. Iowa has to travel across half the country on a short week to play a road game after facing […]
Opponent Defensive Preview: Iowa Hawkeyes
This week the #20 Iowa Hawkeyes (4-1, 1-1) make their first trip to Montlake since 1963. The Hawkeyes, coming off a 31-14 loss to Ohio State, are hoping to bounce back on the road with everything still left to play for. With a win over now less impressive Michigan, and Ohio State behind them, the […]
Iowa Hawkeyes vs. Washington Huskies – Game Thread and How to Watch
The Friday night game between Washington and Iowa is going to cause the Fox production crew to get into a time machine. It will be the first time the Hawkeyes have visited Husky Stadium since 1963. It will be a chance for Iowa to win their first regular season game west of the Rockies since […]
Washington vs. Purdue – Game Thread and How to Watch
My wife has told me a story about how her mom started dating someone around 2000 and she wasn’t sure whether she liked him or not. When the Rose Bowl came around, she found out he was a Purdue fan. Not only did he (living in Seattle) cheer against the Huskies, he enlisted by late […]

Film Study: USC Trojans
The Washington Huskies headed down to the Coliseum to face off #18 USC Trojans in their first away game of the year. The running game finally was able to get going, but the passing attack still lagged behind. The defense did their part, holding USC far below their season average of nearly 40 points per […]
UWDP Mailbag: Call For Questions
Washington will enter the weekend looking to snap a two-game skid and stay above .5oo in the process. Saturday’s bout against Iowa will feature UW’s second straight ranked foe, but it will come in much cooler conditions than the heat wave that scorched Southern California last weekend. No need for word salad, you know the […]
Opponent Offense Preview: Iowa Hawkeyes
Despite being more committed to the pass this year, this is basically the same Iowa team we’ve seen for years. They have their moments, but the pass game is not explosive and when the run game isn’t moving the ball, they aren’t scoring either. Their starting QB is also questionable for this game. On the […]

Big Ten Rankings and Projections After Week 5
There was one ranked-vs-ranked matchup in the Big Ten last weekend, and the other ranked teams that played were able to win their games. We now have a few surprises at the top of the Big Ten standings, including UCLA and Northwestern. And there are a few surprises at the bottom of the standings including […]
Tuesday Dots: Hope and Hatchett

Grading the Game: USC
Washington had a chance to get its season back on track Saturday night and they let it slip away. The Huskies led USC 21-10 in the third quarter, then gave up the final 15 points and lost 25-21. This was a USC team being booed by its own fans, with a defense that has been […]
What We Learned: USC Trojans
It was a frustrating loss for the Huskies in the Coliseum on Saturday night, as they fell to USC, 25-21. Let’s get to what we learned! A Step Forward… Let’s start with the good, I am, by nature, an optimist after all. After a game in which he was held to 23 yards on 7 […]
Monday Dots: Strong Individual Performances, but No Top Prize in L.A.
Happy Monday Dawg fans, and welcome to today’s Dots. Last week against Minnesota it was a case of too little, too late. In L.A. on Saturday the storyline was reversed, but the ending was the same. Up 21-10 after a rare 3rd quarter TD, UW was again felled by an accumulation of familiar, self-inflicted mistakes […]
Recruiting Roundup: Husky Commit Gets All-American Bowl Invite
Happy Sunday Husky fans. After another tough outing for our Huskies the team will return home this weekend looking to rebound against a tough Iowa team. There will likely be handful of visitors on campus but with the game being Friday I would bet the recruits in attendance will be a little light. 4 star […]
Missed Opportunities Doom the Huskies as they fall to USC 25-21
Coming in against a USC team that was probably emotionally drained off a loss against Oregon, this seemed like a prime opportunity for the Huskies to score an upset, and for a while, it looked like they just might. But as we’ve seen, self inflicted wounds sucked most of the air out of the Huskies, […]
Friday Dots: It Never Rains In Southern California
Good evening everybody! It’s a little late for Dots, but we’ve got some for you regardless! Football Dots Basketball Dot That’s all for today, so thank you for making Dots a part of your evening, and as always, Go Dawgs!
Washington Huskies @ USC Trojans – Game Thread and How to Watch
If you came away from the listless, ineffective loss to Minnesota checked out on Jedd Fisch, Demond Williams, and the whole 2026 Husky team, I couldn’t blame you. But what if I told you they had a chance to immediately exit the doldrums they have been stuck in for the first four weeks of the […]
Week 5 Open Thread
Here is your thread for all non-UW CFB discussion for the week. But first, some highlights of what to watch all weekend. Friday Evening – It’s not the deepest slate of Friday games, but Penn St trying to rebound from their loss to Wisconsin by traveling to a resurgent Northwestern for the opening of Ryan […]
Opponent Defensive Preview: USC Trojans
The Huskies hit the road for the first time this season to face the USC Trojans at the Coliseum. Washington (3-1) and USC (4-1) are both coming off of tough losses that have left their respective fan bases recalibrating expectations for their seasons. UW is desperately looking for answers on offense after yet another concerningly […]
