Grading the Game: Wisconsin

Sigh. I’ll try and make this quick. Passing Offense – 3/10 Quarterback – 3/10 Offensive line – 4/10 Receivers – 4/10 This was Demond Williams’ worst game as a Husky. He threw for the fewest amount of yards and the lowest completion percentage of all his starts. His interception seemed born a out of a […]

WBB Season Preview

Alright folks, we’re back at it with the UW Women’s basketball season. I have some hope that they will be the best basketball team in town here real soon.  For starters, they showed out against Seattle U last week, beating them 90-43.

What We Learned: Wisconsin Badgers

It was a frustrating loss for the Dawgs on the road against a now 3-6 Wisconsin team. Let’s get to what we learned, and maybe vent some frustration.

Huskies Embarrassed On The Road, Again

Washington head coach Jedd Fisch hasn’t given a definite answer on whether he’ll stick around next season or accept an offer to go elsewhere.

Huskies Move To 2-0, Baylor Awaits

Beating Arkansas Pine-Bluff and Denver isn’t going to turn any heads, but the 2-0 Washington Huskies look the part of a team that can make noise this season.  1-0 The first of those victories came Monday against UAPB when the Huskies blasted their southern foe 94-50.
