Correct Guess on the Wrong End of the Score.
Well, on what could only be described as a beautiful night at Husky Stadium in the weather department, I ended up calling the game outcome correctly I only wish it would have been reversed in terms of the final score. The UW lost to Stanford by 7 in a game that took more than the UW's pride. Jake Locker, the wonderkin from Ferndale, fractured his thumb and is more than likely lost for 6 weeks at playing QB. Jake played safety in high school so there is some talk of him returning to that position within a few weeks to get his athletic ability on the field as he can still play with his hand in a cast for the time being. The UW also lost a running back and a receiver so injuries are starting to mount.
Perhaps the biggest result from tonight is that by being 0-4 with two losses against teams they could of and should have beat, the UW is basically guaranteed a losing season and will more than likely be lucky if they can piece together wins against UCLA and Washington state. Tyrone is basically out the door now as a search for a new coach and staff will more than likely begin behind the scenes. I, for one, have been one of those who wanted Tyrone to be successful here because I believe the measure of a good football team is in more than just wins and losses.
We'll see where the next two months lead us.
