LOOKING GOOD
RB Chris Polk continues to shine, getting 104 yards on 18 carries, his second 100-yard game of the season, despite getting minimal help from his offensive line. However, he also lost a fumble in the third quarter that led to an Oregon touchdown.

K Erik Folk hit both of his attempts and is now 12-for-14 on the season. He is already closing in on the top-10 list for the most field goals in a season (16 is the 10th spot) in school history.

LB Mason Foster continues to play well and had a sack for a loss of 16 yards among his eight tackles.

STILL NEEDS WORK
The special teams were a disaster, as Washington had a punt blocked, gave up a fake field goal and a two-point conversion on a gadget play. Washington's special teams have struggled much of the season aside from the kicking of Folk.

Washington's offensive line was dominated by a quicker, faster Oregon front seven and didn't give QB Jake Locker much time nor provide many openings for the running backs.

The Washington defense gave up 416 yards, the fifth straight week the Huskies have allowed that many or more. And opponents are doing it through the air and rushing, as the Huskies have allowed 250 or more rushing yards in three of the past six games, and 295 or more passing in three of the last four.

ROSTER REPORT

--DT Cameron Elisara sat out the game with continuing problems with a stinger. He could be back for the UCLA game Nov. 7.

--LB E.J. Savannah again broke a thumb that has bothered him all season, but he likely will have it recasted and continue to play.

--TB Chris Polk continues to battle both shoulder and ankle problems, and he sat out for one key stretch in the second quarter when the Huskies couldn't get the ball in with a first down from the 4. But he returned later and said he should be good after the bye.

--G Nick Wood left for a while with a stinger and was replaced by redshirt freshman Mykenna Ikehara, who saw the first significant action of his career.

--WR Jordan Polk missed the game with a knee injury but should be back for the UCLA trip.

I really like the Husky recruiting class of 2010. Sark and company did a real fantastic job of bringing in a huge offensive lineman, smack em' down linebackers, and two exceptional running backs in Cooper and Callier from California. I especially think Deante Cooper is going to be a stud RB when he adds some more weight and muscle. He is going to give defenses fits. Also, I think the addition of N ...(more)

I won't pretend to know much about the individual players, but this looks like an excellent group.  I love the emphasis on the lines, both offense and defense.  Minus Heaps, we got all the top in-staters and looks like we made a great haul from California as well.  Kudos to Coach Sark and the staff.  It will be interesting to see which, if any of these guys, can make an instant ...(more)

Wow the O-Line looks so much better now. I can't wait for next season. Nebraska is going down.

Looking at our schedule last year, I would have said what a joke of a game. Then came a new coach, and a new confidence level. Now this game is going to be a good one next year. This game could be the launching pad that propells the winner into a BCS game.

I hope UW can de-throne USC at the top. I can't stand Carrol.

Heh youngman!  Just wanted you to know that Sark is probably 2nd choice after Del RIo and maybe Fisher. My reports from the NW say he would be interested in the offer. Whatever haps, it will come fast, 2-4 days,IMO. Im not sure if our Admin likes him taking the 3-4 coaches, so that may eliminate  Sark. It will come from the Trojan family as this has been the tradition; PC was a west ...(more)

Getting Washington 5 wins after being the worst team in the country? That is a feat itself but not only has he done that the guy has pulled in an amazing recruiting class with a strong and developing QB returning. Washington might actually be a force soner than expected this is the perfect time know why? All season from watching or out of sync Usc team get 9 wins I have been calling how weak the P ...(more)

Having grown up a Husky fan in the 80's and becoming accustomed to Rose Bowl appearances as if they were a right of passage, the last 7 years of not even making a bowl appearance has been an incredibly tough pill to swallow.  However, after watching the UW thrash Wazzu and Cal these past two weeks under Sarkisian's leadership, I'm confident in saying that nightmare is OVER!  With or with ...(more)

What a class act. The guy really values UW tradition and wants nothing more than to return the huskies to a major bowl and be a part of bringing this program back into the spotlight. Just when i thought my Locker man-crush couldn't get any worse...it did.

I am so pleased with how the Dawgs competed this year and I am freaking ecstatic to watch the results of a full off season under Sar

(POLL) So I've had a couple buddies ask me the last couple weeks if I thought Jake would return for his senior season?

Now we have had a couple debates about this topic and where Jake would end up at. I don't think there is any question(looking at draft history) that he could go this year and be taken in the first round. But I honeslty think he comes back, I think he knows he has unfinished bu

So going back through this season it should be a great season for the Huskies to look back on, especially coming off the 0-12 last year and with a rookie head coach. You can see the improvement in the team and they are a young and are hungry to learn and believe in this coaching. This is a awesome way to end there season with the drubbing of WAZZU and CAL with a combined 72-10. Locker is obviously ...(more)

Does anybody believe in his defense?  I just dont see it.   He seems to put more energy into running up and down the sidelines than calling anything good. I dont know if he understands that he is not at USC and does not have a defensive line that is able to get pressure without help. I feel like i am watching the same defense as the last three years.  I love what sark is bringi ...(more)

Fall brings me so many fond memories. Everyone getting excited for the holidays, the smell of hot foods and warm drinks like coffee and hot chocolate in the air, homecoming dances, trying to do homework while monday night football is on, oregon fans never making any sense because they just learned what a football is...So many traditions and memories...

But the thing I love most ...(more)

Look, if you go to Oregon's message board, they have a thread called Chances of Winning out...They are talking about the Huskies like we're an std that they're just going to ignore and spread to other females...I really don't like how they're disrespecting us and brining up the number of years they've beaten us in a row. Ya'll should check out their comments and fire back at them. Go Dawgs and ...(more)
