I get that... but #1, UW does not have NEAR the talent of Oregon, #2, don't play stupid.
Are you high? Many teams are going to the no huddle and with UW having a 5th year starting QB and a shit ton of depth on the line and receivers they have everything they need to run it. Will they be perfect with it? Of course not. This is the first year running it. You should expect mistakes. Way too many penalties tonight for one. At times they looked confused, but those were rare. They have a way to go to really get in the comfort zone of this new offense, but the results so far speak for themselves. UW was clearly the more conditioned team in that second half. With both teams running the hurry up you saw what Boise's lack of depth did to their D. They were tired and fell asleep mid way through the 3rd. UW's defense did looked gassed a bit in the 3rd, but that 4th down stop seemed to jazz them back up and they went off.
Whether any of us like the hurry up no huddle or not, it is here to stay for the time being. It's basketball on grass and QB's are now point guards. This is how the game is changing and if you don't change with it you end up with teams that are too gassed to play in the 3rd and 4th quarters. That's how Oregon has done what it has for the last several years. Welcome to football in the modern era.
