The -did-the-Red-Sox-really-do-that? edition:
--- My main contribution to the paper today was this look back at the 1977 Huskies, who will be honored at tomorrow's game. As I point out in the story, this is one of the more important teams in school history. Coming off a long stretch without a bowl, and with the Seahawks having just begun and threatening to take away a lot of their attention, UW needed to start winning. This was the team that started it all here for Don James. (Speaking of that time, Ryan White of the Oregonian wonders if maybe the players who show up should be given uniforms and asked to step in for the current Huskies).
--- Percy Allen compares the plights of UW and North Texas, the only two winless teams in the Bowl Subdivision.
--- Who says we're all negative all the time? Bud Withers picks UW to beat the spread Saturday.
--- Here's a King 5 report on the news concerning Husky Stadium.
--- The Oregonian looks at OSU's improving defense and also says OSU's run defense "could crush the Huskies.'' The Oregonian also has this look at the Huskies (where do they find the time to write all these stories?) Finally, the Oregonian provides this handy weather forecast for tomorrow.
--- The Corvallis Gazette-Times offers this story on Oregon native Jordan Polk.
--- Brian Hendrickson of The Columbian says UW is making the right move in keeping Tyrone Willingham all season.
--- ESPN's Ted Miller wonders if the Huskies will bring it for all 60 minutes as one of his Pac-10 questions of the week. I'm wondering the same thing.
--- The Bleacher Report gets a head start on what will be theme of next week --- comparing Tyrone Willingham and Charlie Weis four years later (and remember, Notre Dame has a bye this weekend to rest up and prepare for the trip to Seattle next Saturday).
--- Matt Hayes of The Sporting News predicts the end will come for Willingham the Monday after the Notre Dame game and is sticking with his view that Lane Kiffin will be the next UW coach.
--- UW recruit Keith Price is profiled by the Long Beach Press-Telegram while the LA Times rates him as the best QB in the LA Southland area.
All for now.
