After last week’s win over
Rutgers the Huskies are now ranked #8. Since it was the first game Head Coach
Chris Peterson was not taking it seriously. I would not either since Rutgers is
not that great of a team. If the Huskies are still ranked #8 at Halloween than
we really have something to say and cheer about.
The Huskies looked
pretty good in the game especially on the offensive side of the ball and
special teams. John Ross scored two touchdowns on passes along with kickoff
return. Pettis also scored a touchdown on a punt return.
This Saturday the
Huskies will take on Idaho so we will where things go then. Idaho is not
expected to be a real good team either so the Huskies should be heavy favorites
once again. What I hope is that the running game will be better this week so
that the passing game will open up even more so. If Gaskin can run for hundred
yards with a couple touchdowns along with Ross scoring at least one touchdown
then the Huskie world will be in a good place. A few sacks and an interception
by the defense would be nice as well.
If you are a Cougar fan
I am sure you are hoping they will rebound and win against Boise State. I know
that will be a tall order for them. The Cougars play Idaho themselves in their
third week they may be 1-2 after that. The important thing that the Cougars
improve this Saturday whether they win or not. Everyone knows that they have a
good offense the key is that the defense starts to get things together. If not
this could be a long season. Something forgotten in Cougar Land is that you
have to stop the other team as much as scoring yourself. You may have to learn
that from your counterpart in Seattle. If the Huskies end the season in the top
ten it will be for the defense more than the offense. I am sure everyone likes
watching a lot of scoring but in the end the defense has to stop the other team
at some point. We hope both teams will go through this Saturday by having no
key injuries either. So right now let’s go Huskies and Cougars!!
