Monday Dots: Ducks Take to the Air, Down Dawgs on Montlake
Happy Monday Dawg fans, and welcome to today’s Dots. The Huskies had their chances on Senior Day Saturday, but against a team of Oregon’s caliber there could be no mistakes — no back-breaking plays allowed if the Dawgs were to pull the upset. Unfortunately, the Huskies trend of slow starts and not-enough-offense against quality opponents […]
Recruiting Roundup: Taking A Look At Who Made It To Montlake For The Oregon Game
Happy Sunday Husky fans. After a tough loss yesterday to the Ducks the coaching staff’s attention now turns to the early signing period which starts on Wednesday. Heading into the early signing period the Huskies hosted one official visitor, 4 star defensive lineman JD Hill, who committed to UW on the 20th of November. Hill, […]
Huskies offense sputters in 26-14 loss to Ducks
It wasn’t the shellacking from a season ago, but the margin of defeat doesn’t feel important during Rivalry Week, all that matters is the loss. Outside of two drives, Washington’s offense was stifled against an Oregon squad that left plenty of opportunities. The Huskies dropped to 8-4 (5-4 Big Ten) after the 26-14 loss to […]
Oregon Ducks @ Washington Huskies – Game Thread and How to Watch
When people discuss the proud history and tradition of college football, they often point to games like Army-Navy, Harvard-Yale, and Ohio St-Michigan. I would argue that Washington-Oregon belongs in that same top tier of bitter, storied rivalries. The Huskies and Ducks will meet for the 118th time on Saturday. The Dawgs lead the all-time series […]
Film Study: UCLA Bruins
The Washington Huskies overcame their road woes, as they took down the UCLA Bruins 48-14 in Pasadena. Defense and Special Teams were the stars of the game, as they forced 3 fumbles and returned a FG for a touchdown. The offense started off slow but then maintained a balanced attack, as both the passing and […]
The Prediction: Oregon Ducks
It’s almost time for the Huskies and the hated Ducks to square off in Seattle! Our staff has their picks for how they think Saturday will play out. Let us know your picks in the comments below! Andrew Berg (10-1 SU, 4-7 ATS) I wrote after Washington’s loss against Wisconsin that the game narrowed the […]
Friday Dots: To The Hunt

And just like the old school Duck Hunt, let’s hope these Dawgs catch some! Football Dots Basketball Dots That’s all for today, I […]
2027 Recruiting Class Preview: DL
Welcome to part seven of this series where we look at the DL position. As a reminder, prospects can fall into four tiers: Committed: Just as the name implies, these are prospects that have already committed to other schools and the staff is no longer actively recruiting them. Tier 1: Would accept their offer no […]
Opponent Defensive Preview: Oregon Ducks
Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate. With Thanksgiving comes college football’s annual rivalry weekend. In year 2 of UW’s Big Ten era, the Huskies (8-3, 5-3) host #6 Oregon (10-1, 7-1) at the end of the season instead of the Apple Cup. There’s no love lost between the two programs, and in recent years this […]

Week 14 CFB Open Thread and CCG Tiebreaker Scenarios
Games of the Week It’s a rivalry week and it’s the last week of conference games. That combination means that there are more exciting and high stakes games than usual. Instead of a single game of the week, here is a list of some of the highlights.
Huskies Down Nevada 83-66
Washington’s apocalypse of sprained ankles threatened to keep them from defending their Acrisure Holiday Classic title. With forwards Bryson Tucker and Hannes Steinbach already out due to sprained ankles (in addition to longer term injuries to Mady Traore and Jacob Ognacevic), Coach Sprinkle revealed on Monday that Lathan Sommerville had rolled his ankle in practice […]
Opponent Q&A: Oregon Ducks
It’s now rivalry week and to get the lowdown on this year’s Oregon squad, I talked to Addicted to Quack’s Tristan Holmes for this week’s Q&A! MS: This is year 4 for Dan Lanning at the helm of the Ducks. He has garnered national attention in recent weeks for being both steadfast in his loyalty […]
Opponent Offense Preview: Oregon Ducks
Happy Thanksgiving Husky fans. The #6 Oregon Ducks present as tough a challenge as Washington has faced all season. They have an elite level passer and one of the country’s best run games. Let’s take a closer look. By the Numbers National rank in parenthesis Points per game: 37.3 (#9) Rushing yards per game: 226 […]
Big 10 Pick 6 – Pluck the Ducks
Last week didn’t have a bevy of crazy upsets in the Big 10, but it did have some surprising results. Wisconsin, who looked very much like a lame duck team for most of the year, spanked #21 Illinois. Penn St hammered Nebraska, 37-10. Michigan St put up a good fight on the road against Iowa, […]

Big Ten Rankings and Projections After Week 13
There was one upset in the Big Ten last weekend as Wisconsin beat a previously ranked Illinois team. Penn State showed that their win over Michigan State wasn’t a fluke by convincingly beating what had been a decent Nebraska team. And USC lost their chance at being in the playoffs by losing on the road […]
2027 Recruiting Class Preview: Edge
Welcome to part six of this series where we look at the edge position. While there are not that many offers at edge, I chose not to combine them with the DL position like I did with OL, because DL alone has about 20 offers. As a reminder, prospects can fall into four tiers: Committed: […]

What We Learned: UCLA Bruins
It was a joyous scene in the Rose Bowl on Saturday night as the Huskies thrashed the 3-8 Bruins on their way to a 48-14 win, to improve to 8-3 on the year. Let’s get to what we learned! Know Him From Adam Coming into the game, the Huskies were known for faltering in the […]
Monday Dots: Road Dawgs Triumph After Dark, Ruin Bruins Rose Bowl Swan Song
Happy Monday Dawg fans, and welcome to today’s Dots. Saturday’s game against UCLA could well be the last time any regular-season college football happens at the historic Rose Bowl. The Dawgs have made memories in Pasadena going back 100 years, with UW’s first appearance at the annual Rose Bowl Game in January 1924. Although UW […]
WBB Beats Vermont
Washington Women’s basketball played Vermont at home on Sunday afternoon, winning by 30+ points. Coming into the game, Vermont looked like it would be the first challenge for this year’s UW team, who is still undefeated. Vermont also maintained their core players, like UW did, and have had 4 20+ win seasons in a row. […]
UW Spoils UCLA’s Potential Rose Bowl Finale
The Greatest Setting in College Football is on Montlake. But the most grand? That’s in Pasadena, with a name equally as special: the Rose Bowl. As Yogi Roth said during the NBC broadcast of Washington’s 48-14 thrashing of UCLA, not many would be opposed to the Rose Bowl hosting the National Championship Game every season. […]
Washington Huskies @ UCLA Bruins – Game Thread and How to Watch
UCLA has been a team of streaks. They opened the season with four straight losses that cost Deshaun Foster the coaching job. They proceeded to win three in a row, including a win over Penn St that hastened James Franklin’s departure. Since then, they have returned to earth with three straight losses, although those two […]
Week 13 CFB Open Thread
National Game of the Week: #15 USC @ #7 Oregon While this game is not likely to impact the race to make the Big 10 Championship Game, the loser is probably out of the running for the CFP. USC has been volatile under Lincoln Riley, and the highs have not been high enough or consistent […]
