CANZANO: Washington Huskies Finally Put National Title Spotlight Back On Pac-12 In Its Final Season

[@johnpaulbacon8320]

Great vidoe

[@MrDellasc]

Well said John, No body could’ve said it better. I’d if even root for UCLA if they were in the title game, which is hard for a USC alum to say. Go PAC-12 and UW, lets go out in style and then dominate our new conferences. Fight On!✌🏻

[@SuperRondon1]

And same sentiment for USC from a UCLA fan! Rooting like heck for UW.

[@joejoegogo]

As a Washington fan I firmly believe the Huskies are a product of the high lvl of competition in the PAC12. I salute all of you. Oregon especially. Could have been them as well.

[@Garlander]

Minus the Michigan scandal and FSU playoff drama, this was a great year of college football.

[@SuperAudionut]

Amen. All teams deserve kudos for really entertaining football. It is a shame. And I'm hopeful that there will be a major restructure that will allow west coast teams to play again. Enjoyed your analysis.

[@johnshelton7365]

true

As a Michigan fan, i had Washington in the final four due to all the talent they had on offense and defense. I watched Washington play all year, i would say this the Oregon, ASU, OSU and WSU games, coaches lost those games. The Texas game those guys looked like they did not know what they was and running backs fumbling on big drives. Washington defense just came after the QB.

[@lasauce18]

Think about that sweep 2-0 PENIX-OREGON

[@jshigi]

3-0 in the last 2 years too :)

[@johnmorris6643]

Great commentary John, really appreciate your in depth reporting, I will be subscribing to your content very soon! I am from Seattle, we have had some phenomenal sports writers up there, including Art Theil and Steve Kelly....I put you in that group.

[@jjm9582]

Washington 5, Michigan 2. In extra innings.

[@mega00760]

why is it every time Arizona is mentioned the coaches name comes up they dont do that with other teams

[@Whatsthe_dill]

Washington has faced 5 statistically better running backs than the likes of michigan blake corum. Look it up. Washington has 7 top 25 ranked wins and has ran the gauntlet. I think Washington defense is going to suprise everyone. Washington is going to win. 42-21 washington.

[@drae408]

Wow, please name them five? 😮

[@josipdasovic881]

​@@drae408Off the top of my head? Jeanty, Ott, Martinez, Irving (that's 4 right there).

[@drae408]

@josipdasovic881 I don't know man penn state has the best dline we faced next to osu and Blake ran thru those teams. Did you not see his run against Bama? The guy got an 1000 yards rushing this year, with a dog Oline. What's your answer for JJ and those TEs? You may want to rethink your score.

[@florida1289]

​@@josipdasovic881😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@florida1289]

Blake Corum had 21-171, 3 td's vs Washington in '21 when your defense was clearly better but whatever helps you sleep at night.

Phenix played injured in az

[@rickolson-51]

Never dogs... Go Blue Go Ducks

[@NothingButSilicone]

Oh you’re just sick. If you’re currently part of the PAC 12, I don’t see how you can’t be rooting for Washington. We’ve been so disrespected. Plus, the better the Huskies are, the better the Ducks are. Oregon could make a good case that’s it’s the second best team in the country.

[@cosmo1eleven855]

Husky fans mostly wouldn't support Oregon if they were playing Michigan. So why should Oregon fans overcome their hostility to UW.

[@Stinkinbadgez]

Husky fans here. I agree. Hate Oregon, always will, hate their coach, hate their arrogant fans, their press, their duck, their rotten stadium, their fat cheerleaders, If I left anyone or thing out I am sorry.@@cosmo1eleven855

[@NothingButSilicone]

@@cosmo1eleven855 In years past, that might very well be the case. But not in the last year of the PAC 12. Not for anyone that loved the PAC and hate to witness its collapse. Prior to this year, I had never rooted for the Ducks, but I did against Colorado, and I did against Liberty, and if Oregon had made it to the playoffs, best believe I’d be rooting for them. I honestly believe Oregon has played an integral part into Washington being what they are today. They could very well be the 2nd best team in the country. Regardless of what happens, even if Washington loses (so long as they aren’t destroyed), I actually think Oregon could have beaten any of these teams. It’s a game of matchups, and Oregon actually matches up with some of these teams better than Washington does. Imagine this… the last year of the PAC 12, and we are going to have two teams in the top 4. That’s just crazy to me.

[@FatherFirst]

​@@NothingButSiliconeyup, absolutely, well said. I rooted for every PAC 12 team in their bowl games this year, but very much specifically for Oregon. I bleed purple and gold. I was born and raised in Western Washington so the Huskies have been my team since I was born. But I lived in Eugene for a little over a year and met many ducks fans and lived a block away from Oregons campus. I didn't ever hide my love for my Dawgs and I met great people there who it was a lot of fun to bicker back and forth with. It was always fun and respectful. That really changed my mentality towards the Ducks because I realized that they mean just as much to their community as Washington does to the community I grew up in. (And maybe even more honestly because they don't have a pro team) they are diehards like I am. Anyway, I respect the hell out of the University of Oregon and their football team.
