Opponent Offense Preview: Washington State Cougars

There aren’t many returners from last year’s WSU team that lost to UW 59-24, and their strength as a team this year should be defense. But today, we examine the offense. Let’s get to it. Key Players Washington should be familiar with redshirt sophomore QB Caden Pinnick, who they faced as the UC Davis quarterback […]

Wednesday Dots: Seattle Sound

Trust is the greatest of gifts, but it must be earned. Star Wars: The Clone Wars. Season 4, Episode 8 Much of the talk of the offseason has been around whether Demond Williams can lead the team after his brief foray into the Transfer Portal. He has tried to build that trust back and had […]

30 Day Countdown: Day 3 – B1G Win Projections

Week 0 is in the rear-view mirror, and Week 1’s arrival is imminent. Of the 18 teams in the conference, only USC took the field in Week 0. The result was an easy victory over San Jose State. I predicted how USC will fare in its other 11 games, and did the same for every […]

30 Day Countdown – Day 5: Who will be the first Husky Drafted in 2027?

It’s never fun losing players. But watching their transition from Huskies to #ProDawgs eases the pain of their departure. Last season, Washington saw seven players get selected in the 2026 NFL Draft. Whether before the season, mid-season, or postseason, predicting which Husky would get selected first was rather easy, as Denzel Boston’s face was plastered […]
