First of all, welcome to Seattle. Always fun to host a classy, intellectually inclined program like Stanford. Lot of mutual respect between the DWAGS and the Trees that call "The Farm" home. We are on a roll and think we'll catch Stanford at just the right time. Hopefully the Covid catches neither of us!
Here is why the UW will win this week.
1. Dylan "Jake" Morris - the best player on the field, enough said on that. With four years of high school and three college games under his belt, he will do everything possible to win the game. 15 of 23 for 254 yards, no TDs or INTs.
2. Offensive Line. We average a weight of 332 across the line, and they are ready to dominate the line of scrimmage. Victor Curne, Rosborough, Center, Ossai, Kirkland Sig. These boys have an attitude and are ready to rumble!!! They did better as the game wore on. Wash almost won.
3. Kwietcatski. A new defensive scheme and a new attitude. Everyone is speaking out about the difference between our first half game plan and second half game plan against the UTE. You will see a much improved defense on 12/5.
4. Speed, speed, speed. This is the fastest team Washington has had this century, maybe since 1991. Artem Wallace, John Ross IV, Charlie McClutchin, Brandon Kaho, Savell Azeem Ahmed, JR Hasty, Myles Gaskin etc. The newbies will be inexperienced but we bring a new dimension that the program has not had in years...speed. Wash had more yards per play (6.5 to 6.2) and 254 yards passing to 252. Stanford won all other metrics, including rushing yards and total yards. We're pretty fast, too.
5. Time of possession. I think we can win the time of possession battle in this one. the more we can control the ball and keep our defense off the field, the greater chance we’ll have to win. Only off by five minutes or so. Stanford had the ball for 32:25.
I think UW wins this one rather easily, say… 34-17??? Not bad. You were only off by the winner and 22 points.
