THE REALIST SPORTSTALK IN THE NORTHWEST
THE REALIST SPORTSTALK IN THE NORTHWEST
The Huskies open their 2009 season Saturday against #11 ranked LSU, expect Husky stadium to be rocking and loud as the Dawgs prepare to bring back the bark that has been missing for the past couple seasons…..UW currently is on a 14 game losing streak dating back to Nov 17, 2007 ….a 37-23 win over California……UW is a 17.5 point underdog…..Game-Time is 7:30 pm…..Go DAWGS!!
**prediction UW 28- LSu 27**
The Seattle Seahawks beat the dysfunctional Oakland Raiders last night 31-21…..for the most part the offensive starters were rested for precaution, but the second and third teams played well…..on defense the Seahawks looked good….especially Aaron Curry, he was a disruptive force last night and had one sack on the night……the Hawks go 4-0 as they get ready for the St. Louis Rams Sept. 13……..Go Hawks!!!
The NFL has decided to reduce Mike Vick’s 6 game suspension down to just 2, he will be allowed to play in Week 3 against the Kansas City Chiefs……last night Vick went 7-11 for 26 yds passing and 1 touchdown and 1 int., the Eagles lose to the Jets in the end 38-27…..Philly goes (1-3) in the pre-season while the Jets go (2-2)
The #14 Boise St. Broncos smacked around the #16th ranked Oregon Ducks last night 19-8, the high flying Duck offense crashed on the blue turf and could not muster any momentum, the Broncos were sharp racking up 361 yards of total offense compared to the Ducks 152 yards, the end of the game was marred by Le Garette Blount of Oregon cold cocking Byron Hout of the Broncos, Blount had to be restrained…..he later issued an apology after the game….I wonder what those Boise St. fans and certain players on the Bronco team were saying to Blount……or maybe he was mad about -5 yards rushing he had…..or could it have been those awful new Oregon uniforms???
