Monday Dots: Huskies Help Gophers Dig Hole Too Big to Climb Out Of
Happy Monday Dawg fans, and welcome to today’s Dots. Let’s review: They say: “A team improves the most between the 1st and 2nd week.” Huskies (Pass/Fail): FAIL They also say: “You learn more about yourself in a loss than a win.” Huskies (Pass/Fail): TBD Perhaps the fact that UW’s myriad liabilities hadn’t yet resulted in […]
Recruiting Roundup: A Couple Key 2028 Targets Make Their Way To Campus
Happy Sunday Husky fans. Last night was a tough game for our football team, and today’s post is going to be somewhat short. The Huskies had a couple of key targets on campus in the 2028 class. 4 star offensive lineman Josiah Eney from Our Lade of Good Counsel HS, MD headed to Montlake to […]
Huskies’ Playoff Dreams Fade To Black in Loss to Minnesota
If you choose to ignore red flags, that’s your prerogative. Just don’t be surprised if you end up disappointed. For three weeks, Washington has shown signs of not being a very good football team. Minnesota delivered the ultimate reality check to those still holding out hope for a Cinderella-esque College Football Playoff run. The Huskies […]
UWDP Mailbag: ‘Who needs healthy players?’ Edition
Tomorrow, the Huskies face the Golden Gophers under the lights of Husky Stadium. But first, I have answers to our two mailbag questions. Rhaego: What sort of metric would have you feeling reassured from the Minnesota game? A margin of victory? Points scored by the offense? Total yard disparity? Response: Honestly, a fourth mark in […]

Minnesota @ Washington: Game Thread and How to Watch
Most UW fans expected to enter Big 10 conference play at 3-0, but few expected it to play out the way it has. The Huskies have looked listless and undisciplined, especially on offense. The results have led to many of us lowering our expectations for the season, but a full year of disappointment is not […]
Opponent Defensive Preview: Minnesota Golden Gophers
The Huskies open Big Ten conference play this weekend against the Minnesota Golden Gophers. It’s been a while since UW and Minnesota last played. The last contest between the teams was back in 1977, so there’s a decent chance that the younger fans at that game are now watching their respective teams with their grandkids. […]

Film Study: Eastern Washington
The Washington Huskies add another to the win column, as they took down the Eastern Washington Eagles 48-16 at Husky Stadium. The offense finally came to life, scoring more points than their first two games combined and totaled over 500 yards, as the Demond x Dezmen was automatic all game. The defense showed some cracks […]
Mailbag: Call For Questions
Washington is 3-0 after dismantling Eastern Washington 48-16 on Saturday. Since then, the Huskies have turned their attention to Minnsota ahead of its Big Ten opener. Minnesota is 2-1 on the year.

Opponent Offense Preview: Minnesota Golden Gophers
Big Ten play is finally here. The Gophers took care of business against Eastern Illinois and Akron, but in between they got run off their own field by Mississippi State. Which version shows up in Husky Stadium? To the (offense) preview. The Numbers One thing to note: three of Minnesota’s touchdowns weren’t scored by the […]
Wednesday Dots: Shared History
Choose what is right, not what is easy. Star Wars: The Clone Wars. Season 2, Episode 18 Avoiding some of the penalties, especially like the ones on the defense last week, may not be easy. But the coaches and players know that they need to do the right thing and avoid them or they could […]
Big Ten Rankings and Projections After Week 3
All but 4 of the Big Ten teams have finished the non-conference portion of their schedule; and half of the remaining teams will finish this weekend. Most of the non-conference games last weekend were not particularly helpful since there were large margins of victory over teams that they were expected to handle easily. There were […]
Tuesday Dots: Conference Play Begins
Conference play! Huskies in the NFL! Recruiting! Dots! Dots:
Grading the Game: Eastern Washington
Washington closed out non-conference play with a comfortable win over an FCS opponent, piling up 546 total yards and averaging 8.8 per play. Both the scoreboard and box score looked good, but with EWU sitting a tier below the Huskies in FCS, this was a game that should have been a comfortable victory. Yes, I […]
What We Learned: Eastern Washington Eagles
The Huskies took care of business on Saturday afternoon, beating the Eastern Washington Eagles 48-16. It was a better game for the offense, but there’s still plenty to work on as the Huskies head in to conference play at an unblemished 3-0 mark. Let’s get to what we learned! Find A Way With Jayden Limar […]
Monday Dots: They Are Who We Thought They Were
Happy Monday Dawg fans, and welcome to today’s Dots. On the cusp of Big Ten play, the Washington football Huskies grabbed a win they needed, but one their fans needed more. After two lackluster offensive showings against “lesser” teams, the Dawgs welcomed the Eastern Washington University Eagles, who brought their FCS selves and their 1-2 […]

Happy Sunday Husky fans. Yesterday’s game, albeit against an FCS school, was a good step in the right direction for the Huskies. It was also another chance to bring some top targets in the 2028 class onto campus and here is a look at some of the recruits who made their way onto campus: 3 […]
UW Offense Finds Groove in 48-16 Rout of EWU
Washington advanced to 3-0 on the year by thumping in-state foe Eastern Washington to a tune of 48-16. The victory completes a turbulent, but successful, non-conference slate. There was an uneasiness sweeping over Husky Nation as the weekend approached. Fear of defeat wasn’t particularly a factor, but more so, how the victory would look. Another […]
Mailbag: ‘What would DeBoer Do?’ Edition
Washington needs to find a rhythm on offense and has just one game left until Big Ten play begins. So time is of the essence. Saturday’s clash with Eastern Washington will reveal whether the Husky offense has a pulse. In last week’s mailbag, we examined whether it was too early to hit the panic button. […]
Washington Huskies vs. Eastern Washington Eagles – Game Thread and How to Watch
The Huskies were suppose to be entering Week 3 with a couple of big wins under their belt and valuable experience to take into the Big 10 schedule. Instead, it feels like the Dawgs are almost starting over, at least offensively, with two dismal performances. At the same time, the team is 2-0 thanks to […]
