We’re closing out our player preview of the Washington men’s basketball roster today by looking at the primary centers on the Husky roster. There’s some wiggle room here with players who could also see minutes at the power forward spot (and Hannes Steinbach who was in yesterday’s edition will also play some minutes at center) […]

Back in February I published a set of goals for UW to achieve this year. As I said back then, competing in the Big Ten Championship game and getting into the CFP should be goals-this year and every year; but I was looking at goals that I thought were more realistic. It turns out that […]

I was tantalizingly close to a perfect week ATS last week. My two losses came via a backdoor cover by Michigan State on a TD with seven seconds to go and Northwestern covering by half of a point against Nebraska (seven point loss and a 7.5 point spread). Nonetheless, I’m back to .500 for the […]

The Washington Huskies return to the win column in style, as they take down their first ranked opponent on the year in the (formerly) #23 ranked Illinois Fighting Illini. It was the Demond x Denzel show as they led the offense in what is hopefully the start of a new lengthy home win streak at […]

It was an all around excellent game as the Dawgs took care of business, dispatching the Illinois Fighting Illini by a score of 42-25. Let’s get to what we learned! “Don’t baby me!” If there was a defining moment from the Huskies’ win, Denzel Boston definitely had a few candidates. His 10 catches, for 153 […]

Happy Monday Dawg fans, and welcome to today’s Dots. I walked to Husky Stadium on Saturday remarking that UW needed not just a win, but a Feel Good Win against Illinois. With the late collapse to Michigan and meager 1st-half scoring recently, it seemed Husky fans like me needed to feel good about where this […]

National Game of the Week: #3 Texas A&M @ #20 LSU Texas A&M has been an object of derision for much of its history due to the fanbase’s inflated sense of importance and the team’s relative lack of top tier accomplishments. In recent history, the giant contract given to Jimbo Fischer without any tangible on-field […]

Every game feels monumental during the season, but this game between the Huskies and Illini feels extra important for the big picture trajectory of the season. It might be the best chance for UW to beat a ranked opponent. It might be the most evenly-matched game the Huskies play in terms of overall team quality. […]

The time is almost upon us for a home showdown against a top 25 Illinois Fighting Illini team! Our staff has their predictions! Andrew Berg (7-0 SU, 3-4 ATS) Washington has been a much better team at Husky Stadium than on the road throughout Jedd Fisch’s tenure. Even after getting the monkey off his back […]

The Washington Huskies came back down to Earth as they faced off against the Michigan Wolverines. The team kept things close with a 7-7 tie at intermission before it all unraveled following halftime. The defense did all that they could but the offense did not hold up their end of the bargain. Michigan forced 3 […]

We are getting further into the season and learning more about each team. As a result, the lines are getting better and fewer games are coming in with wildly unexpected results. Of the six games picked last week, only Minnesota’s upset over Nebraska on Friday night jumped out as wildly out of line with expectations. […]
