Brutal Loss for Zags | Kraken Extend Win Streak | Huskies Beat ASU

Had the game on while wrapping up some work, but wow - they would have been blown out of the gym if it wasn't for Watson and the fact that Santa Clara had a ton of turnovers (that we didn't capitalize on). Pretty cool to see Steve Nash at the game, though...

Huskies Lose to Michigan

Not the way we wanted this magical season the end. I'm not sure the better team won, but the better team tonight won at the line of scrimmage and won the game.

I'm not sure why the officials decided to call holding on the bomb to Rome after not calling it all night on the Wolverines, but that is how it goes.

I'm going to try and post regularly in 2024 - I don't think I made any posts here in 2023 - sad, but I have been fairly busy.

We went to the NHL Winter Classic on New Year's Day and enjoyed an awesome outdoor hockey game between the Seattle Kraken and the Las Vegas Golden Knights. The Kraken won 3-0 with our goalie, Joey Daccord keeping the Golden Knights scoreless.




Later that evening, the University of Washington Huskies beak the Texas Longhorns in the Sugar Bowl and will play the hated Michigan Wolverines on January 8th for the College Football Championship.

Huskies Win 2022 Apple Cup

Published by Kyle Welsh

I don't think anyone was expecting this high of a combined score based on the weather in Pullman but wow - 84 points!
I think the Pac-12 #1 offense took care of the #1 Pac-12 defense - it was a much closer game than the final score of 51 to 33 reflects with 7 first half lead changes but the Huskies did prevail.

Looking forward to the Pac12 Championship game with the rematch between USC and Utah next weekend.

Huskies Win

The 2022 campaign was off to a decent start on Saturday. Transfer quarterback, Michael Penix looked mature, got protection and made solid throws including 4 TD passes in the season opener against Kent State.

Arizona State Beats Huskies 35-30

The Huskies sure looked good at the beginning and then fizzled in the second half and were totally dominated in the fourth quarter.
I don't miss Jimmy Lake - I'd like to see more of the Morris/Huard platoon at quarterback the rest of the season.


Huskies Lose Opener to Montana

I was pretty excited for the season to get started, but like most of the rest of nation (except for Griz Nation) I did not expect the Huskies to not only lose but get look so poor. Granted the starting receiving corps was not available , but other than than their initial possession the Huskies looked pretty dismal. Not to take anything away from the Grizzlies - they came to play and their senior quarterback from Issaquah probably still hasn't slept.

This was supposed to be a tune-up game for the prime time game next week at Ann Arbor against Michigan which I have been looking forward to ever since it was scheduled. I hope the team can put together a competitive game on Saturday, otherwise it will just be one more reason whay the Huskies and the Pac12 aren't respected by the rest of the country.

I'm becoming less and less of a fan of the Seattle Times but Mike Vorel's article in today's paper sums up the current situation fairly well.

Analysis: UW coach Jimmy Lake didn’t see Saturday’s loss to Montana coming — and that’s the problem | The Seattle Times
Last month, when asked what it would take for Washington to compete annually for College Football Playoff berths, Jimmy Lake said: "We're already there." The Husky coach's biggest problem is that he didn't know he had one.

Baylor Dominates Huskies in Opener

Baylor is good - the Huskies are, well - its hard to say. They were dominated on the boards and on every other aspect of the game. I hope they learn from the experience and continue to improve over the season and I hope they get back to Seattle healthy!

Not sure how this is going to go today - I don't know much about either team, but Baylor is ranked #2 and takes on Gonzaga soon. Hopefully, the bubble is strong down in Vegas...

Kicking Off 2018

Well, 2018 arrived faster than I expected. The end of the year always brings a flurry of activites at both home and work. No resolutions for me this year - I've never been a big fan of them. I believe that if there is something in your life that you want to change then start - don't wait until January 1st.

We spent Christmas back in Montana with my paternal grandmother - she turned 93 on January 2nd so we hung around to have a small party for her. She's doing great, still lives on her own but doesn't drive any longer. It was cold there - it got as low as -31F (before the wind chill on New Years Day, so needless to say we didn't spend much time outside this trip.

I've never been able to get in a consistent pattern of writing entries for this blog which is something I'm going to work on this year and make at least one entry a week above and beyond the typical entries following @ZagMBB & @UW_MBB

As far as the NFL goes and SuperBowl 52... I'm rooting for the @Vikings - with the @Seahawks missing the playoffs for the first time in 5 years, I wasn't extremely excited about post-season football but there have been some really good games and it would be cool to see Minnesota win it all in their beautiful new stadium!
