Pac-12 After Dark, 7:30pm PT on ESPN. Miracle?
Lose this and we lose the North. Then Ducks visit Seattle Oct. 19.
Looking for some kind of edge, I do not like anything about this matchup
-- Stanford a 15 point Home Dog.
Yards per game: WASH 443 (3rd), STAN 327 (12th in Pac12)
Points per game: WASH 38 (3rd), STAN 20 (12th)
Rush yds per carry: WASH 5.0 (5th), STAN 3.6 (10th)

Red Zone TD %: WASH 55% (10th), STAN 40% (12th)
Points allowed per game: WASH 18 (4th), STAN 29 (7th)
Huskies bring one of the best O-Lines in the Pac-12, a fast RB in Ahmed, and faster Receivers.
Eason is as good a QB as KJ was last year.
KJ is out, so Mills starts. More importantly, our O-Line is injured badly.
Both starting tackles and a starting Guard (Hamilton) out.
STRENGTHS?: Our receiving corp remains potent, but Mills will need time to get the ball thrown.
Can we run... with a second tier O-Line?
To win, I think we need 3+ turnovers and the Defense needs to score TWO TDs, as in Sun Bowl win on UNC.
Piss & Yelp (Huskies): 34
Slash & Burn (Trees): 13 -- Our O-Line in tatters could be fatal.
