There were close calls.&nbsp; They beat Oregon on a fluke (bad decision-making).&nbsp; The survived vs. OSU when the Beavers (likely intentionally) held out players from the game in the 4<sup>th<\/sup> quarter.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A missed WSU PK and a made Husky PK at the buzzer won the Apple Cup.&nbsp; They upset Oregon again to make the playoffs.&nbsp; The offense was electric.&nbsp; Deboer leaves, and the roster will be much different in \u201924.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2024-nebraska-corn-huskers-ncaaf-areas-to-watch\">2024 Washington NCAAF AREAS TO WATCH:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>It\u2019s not a case of who left (10 drafted, 7 in the 1st three rounds), but who is left?&nbsp; Every offensive starter is gone.&nbsp;<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Will Rodgers has thrown for over 12,000 yards.&nbsp; I expect 67% accuracy here.&nbsp; RB Coleman comes with new coach Fisch and he\u2019s a more than capable starter.&nbsp; WR Hunter (Cal) has NFL talent.&nbsp; The OL is mostly untested, with two starters having never played, and even the transfer from Ohio State has but two starts in five seasons.&nbsp; Injuries would be crippling to this offense.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Steve Belichick is the new defensive coordinator.&nbsp; I have no idea how that will work out.&nbsp; The DL is all new, with two key transfers (Montana State, Arizona) having starting experience.&nbsp; I\u2019m keeping the run D flat (4.5 per carry) but of course that will be monitored.&nbsp; The LB unit has one returning starter, with one other player with starting experience.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two starters return to the secondary, along with a former Arizona starter.\u00a0 Washington was a middle of the pack (PAC 12) defense a year ago and could earn similar status now.\u00a0 The kicking game IS in good hands.\u00a0\u00a0<span id=\"docs-internal-guid-e57a87b4-7fff-641f-9354-b6a79a5e7b53\"><div><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;

That\u2019s <strong><em>UNDER 7.5 wins<\/em><\/strong>, which I have some tickets on, but a little too close for comfort after doing this write-up.&nbsp; For those with under 7 tickets, I think it\u2019s worth keeping.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The road schedule is hard.&nbsp; I like parts of this team (backfield, possibly the back seven, PK), but the OL is new, the DL is new, and depth is lacking.&nbsp; I\u2019ll be watching Belichick\u2019s impact closely, and how all my projected numbers are faring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"college-football-week-0-predictions-picks\">Washington Huskies Preview &amp;
