It also didn't help us that Penix played the game of his fucking life. Tonight he looks human.

yep.  he couldn't keep it up.  Wash just had to hope he was above average....welp

I look forward to beating the champions at their house next September, and then sometime later seeing them get stripped of the championship all together, but they beat ass tonight.  

LOL NCAA has no authority to strip a CFP championship. This isn’t basketball

This just shows how mediocre our edge rush is that we couldn’t kick #73’s dick in all night last week.

It helps that he is being called for holding tonight and he wasn’t last week. He was allowed to hold with impunity.

His receivers also haven't balled out.  They've slipped, tripped and bumbled around as well.

please stop posting that it's a different Washington team. It's a different defense they are playing. a massively underrated front 7 and a secondary that had given up a number of TDs that we do in 2 games.

Last NCAA football game of the season.

Really looking forward to seeing Longhorns in this game next year!

WINNING

We're going to crush Michigan at the big house next year.  Book it.

Michigan's secondary is light years better than ours. They are also pressuring Penix, which we haven't at all.

the other way around IMO. i felt like we had way too much hype for our DTs heading into the game with husky

but michigan secondary is indeed better as well 

penix is exactly who we thought he was. we needed to pressure him and our plan sucked

This. They were the worst possible match up for us. We made fucking Ward and Will Howard look all American against us.

Going into the Washington game the media acted like our D-line was going to get tons of pressure. That was never our strength. Our strength was run defense, not pressuring the QB.

Thats why we lost. We couldn’t get pressure on him (and sark wouldn’t run the damn ball). 

When you can pressure, it makes your secondary look like Michigan’s does tonight. Not that they aren’t really good—they are. But I’ll bet Muhammad starts looking like Will Johnson if Simmons and co. can start bringing a pass rush.

And rush the passer. And cover receivers. Three things we never really did all year. And those are the things we'll have to fix to ever get farther than we just did. 

Our DBs were adequate when we got a pass rush, which we never did against Washington. Our game plan and execution both sucked against Washington. It felt that way early in the game.

Michigan's game plan and execution was not shitty.

And.. the results align to that reality.

This game makes me feel like we got Horn-Frogged last week. The Husky team that showed up last week wasn't getting dumb-shit fouls and Penix was lights out.

This team looks like they've been shitting their pants since the plane landed in Houston.

Texas got handcuffed by officiating early.  Zebras let them play more in the second half, but they never called Washington for shit.  When holding gets called, it opens the pash rush too.
