OT College Football Playoffs Semi-Finals: 4. Washington Huskies vs 1. Alabama Crimson Tide

[RipCityDSCPL]

Welcome Bones!! Sucks you slept in the first half but you are here to see an epic comeback by the Huskies!!!

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Good job by the defense to get Alabama off the field scoreless. Now Browning needs to play like I know he can and go deep to Ross or Pettis. This will open running lanes for Gaskin.

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

This conservative crap isn't going to work on Alabama

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Damn. Another sack.

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Defense needs to do it again.

Welcome Bones!! Sucks you slept in the first half but you are here to see an epic comeback by the Huskies!!!

Yeah I woke up and was like fuckkkkk

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Gotta keep Hurts in the pocket and stop his scrambling.

Really needed to get that fumble!!

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Delay of game again! Hurts is making those rookie mistakes now!

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Alright Browning, get your head out of your ass and win this game now!

 

[BonesJones]

Need to take a calculated shot down field to Ross.

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Been saying that all game @BonesJones. You're not going to beat this team by throwing it short. Throw the ball deep.

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Sigh

 

[SlyPokerDog]

@RipCityDSCPL's passion and exuberance has now made me want the Huskies to win.

GO DAWGS!

 

[BonesJones]

Were not playing our brand of football. Were playing sloppy and scared.

Good for you! Dawgs need to stick together!

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Sack #4 on Hurts!

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Were not playing our brand of football. Were playing sloppy and scared.

Browning is taking out his team's best weapon(Ross) out of the game by not challenging Alabama's secondary.

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Huge first down

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Washington can win this game just need to play Husky football.

 

[BonesJones]

We can't just keep getting 3 yard plays. That's just gonna wind the clock down and not get us anywhere

It's finally here!!!! In one hour's time The Washington Huskies will play the Alabama Crimson Tide for a chance to play for the National Championship. This tide team is being lauded as 'one of the best teams ever' and 'experts' across the country are giving the Huskies NO CHANCE of winning and in fact are going to be steamrolled by the juggernaut that is Alabama.

What do I have to say about all that? There are going to be a lot of shocked and disappointed 'experts' when all is said and done because The Washington Huskies are going to shock the universe and 'upset' The Alabama Crimson Tide and punch their ticket to Tampa.

Here are a couple of keys to an Huskies win;

1.) Stop Alabama's rushing attack. The Tide's running game is not that special but it's the running game that aides in Alabama's quarterback, Jalen Hurts ability to get out of the pocket and scramble and extend the play for big plays.

2.) Keep Hurts' in the pocket and force him to beat you. Despite Alabama's record, Hurts is still a rookie and if Washington can get pressure and make him uncomfortable in the pocket and get Hurt's to tap dance in the pocket, the rookie will make a mistake or two. The Huskies need to be alert and aware and capitalize on those mistakes when they happen.

3.) Play an uptempo quick-strike offence. The Tide has won the majority of their games due to their suffocating defense, this is due to Saban being allowed to make line changes(I know this isn't the right term but I am blanking right now.) to keep his big lineman fresh. Washington needs to quicken the pace offensively and stop this from happening. Keep those big lineman on the field at all costs. This will tire the defense out and will make them more susceptible to giving up big plays rushing the ball and deep plays down the field to Pettis and Ross down the field for touchdowns and a Husky win.

What I want to see Washington do if the Huskies start the game with the ball;

On the very first play of the game, go deep to Ross and Pettis for a big play or touchdown. Let Alabama know right away what they are in for and expose their defense to start the game.

What I want to see Washington do if the Crimson Tide start the game with the ball;

Force a three and out on Alabama's first drive. Get pressure on Hurts' and make him uncomfortable right away.

Final score;

Washington Huskies- 38
Alabama Crimson Tide- 31

@BonesJones, @The Professional Fan would like to hear your critiques as well as any other Huskies fan I may have forgotten.

I like your analysis and "homerism". I really did not care who would win but tonight I am a Huskies fan!

 

[BonesJones]

Gotta take a shot at some point. Especially here. So what if they intercept it in the endzone? It's as good as a punt

 

[rotary111]

Huskies fan for a day! Let's go!

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Beautiful punt by Washington! Traps Alabama in their own end zone!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Pimp kick.

 

[BonesJones]

Wow what a punt by Browning

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Dammit!!!

 

[BonesJones]

That's a killer run... Fuck

 

[BonesJones]

Welp.

 

[RipCityDSCPL]

Scarbrough is really the only thing that has been killing Washington this game for Alabama.

Fuck! Speak of the devil.
