Prior to the season Dawg fans were woofing about how much better Jacob Eason was going to be than Justin Herbert.
His hype train has run into a Bear and a Tree:.
3 nonconference games: (3-0): Eason 77.5%, 901 yards, 10 TDs, 1 INT, 1 sack
3 Pac-12 games: (1-2): 54.3%, 548 yards, 1 TD, 2 INTs, 7 sacks
Against Stanford, 18 of Eason's 36 pass attempts went to WR Aaron Fuller. Talk about locking in on one guy.
Meanwhile the defense has struggled to stop the run, they've dropped conference games to Cal at home and at Stanford, and they have a PAC-12 After Dark contest Saturday night at Arizona, not an easy place for UW to play in recent seasons. Plus it's an 8:00 p.m. Pacific time start.
Some Husky fans are even beginning to question Chris Petersen. On Monday Roman Tomashoff of Fanside posted a column entitled Washington football needs to make some big changes.
"Washington football was embarrassed by Stanford on Saturday night, and the lack of offensive efficency is becoming clearer and clearer every week."
The Ducks have a prime opportunity to unravel the Husky program October 19th in Seattle. A third (possibly fourth) conference loss would send the critics into a dither.
