Hardcore Husky Football Podcast

Washington captures the ugliest win in the history of college football. The win over Arizona puts the Dawgs at 2-2 in the Pac-12 and 3-4 overall. Derek, Joey and Woolley dish on Morris misfires, Asa Turner late-game heroics, and Jen Cohen's fashion sense. This week's shout out goes to HuskyJW. Come join the fun at HardcoreHusky.com .   

Washington falls to UCLA in a wet mop of a contest. The Huskies are now 1-2 in conference and 2-4 overall. Over at Hardcore Husky, the natives are now emailing UW athletic director Jennifer Cohen, who stated last week that her #1 concern is not the failing football or men's basketball teams, but rather the so-called fans who are hurting the confidence of the players and ruining their college exper...

With the Huskies off with a BYE, we discuss games from yesterday, including Sark's Longhorn implosion against Oklahoma, Alabama's loss to Texas A&M, and Beavlet falling to Cuog. Shout outs include Swaye, Doog_de_Jour and AuburnDawg. Come join the dysfunctional fun over at HardcoreHusky.com . 

Washington falls to 2-3 with a 27-24 loss to the Oregon State Beavers. The Husky coaching staff is definitely not playing 4D chess. We'll just leave that right there, as coach Jimmy Lake would say.  The Hardcore Husky message boards are in meltdown mode right now. Come on over and join the gripe fest. Or if you're a Beaver fan, come join the annoying Benny Beaver and Hard Hat as they celebrat...

The Huskies beat Cal in overtime 31-24 while BackThePack (aka Fudgie) saw his favorite player Devin Culp have a breakout game. On one hand, the Huskies opened up Pac-12 play with a win. That's good, right? On the other hand, this coaching staff leaves many of us feeling pessimistic about the future of UW football.  Shout out to HuskyHooligan for the title of today's episode.  Come on ove...

Washington drubs Arkansas State 52-3 for its first win of the season. It was nice to see the kids playing with emotion and having fun. But how much did this game show us? Will it catapult the Dawgs toward a winning season? Or was it a simple shellacking of a Sun Belt also-ran? Only one thing is for sure: The game will be weaponized to subdue any uprisings on a certain rival message board. Speaking...

Washington falls 31-10 to a Michigan team that will struggle to win 7 games this year. Jimmy Lake proclaimed the Huskies were ready to compete for a playoff berth, but they only manage 50 yards rushing. This team is circling the drain and will struggle to win 5 games. Derek Johnson, JoeEDangerously and WoolleyDoog break it all down while trying to inject some humor where they can.  Come on ov...

Jen Cohen and Jimmy Lake have run Husky Football into the ground. Washington's loss to Montana was epically bad -- and not some crazy fluke. From A to Z, every aspect was putrid. But WoolleyDoog and JoeEDangerously did have longtime weatherman and Hardcore Husky cult hero Steve Pool sitting behind them at the game. But even Mr. Pool left at halftime.  If you wish to join the bitchfest or are...

Derek Johnson, JoeEDangerously and Woolleydoog discuss the Pac-12 alliance and non-expansion, plus ponder whether Dylan Morris can break the chain of disappointing and regressing QBs that have plagued this program since Marques Tuiasosopo. This episode is brought to you by "the worst kind of fans" over at HardcoreHusky.com. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb. Come register and...

Hardcore Husky posters JoeEDangerously and WhoollyDoog join Derek Johnson for a preview of the 2021 season. Some listeners will think "wow this is pretty encouraging".

Derek and Doogles are back! Talking Husky football along with brief Fathers Day tributes to their dads. 

Derek and Koopdog (aka The Sweatpants General) talked UW football and basketball and even threw some Netflix into the mix. 

It's a Christmas Eve pod for our pods. The first ten minutes is a lot of Inside Baseball, with shout outs and grievances directed toward posters at HardcoreHusky.com. (Outsiders may not know what we're talking about). But then we settle in to a lively conversation about bowl game memories and playing video game football. Merry Christmas to our pods!   Come join the gang at HardcoreHusky.com &...

What a journey it has been, huh? From being rich, cool and 3-0, to getting embarrassed by Stanford and watching Oregon take UW's spot in the Pac-12 Championship and beating USC... Going forward, is Washington's future bright? Or has UW become Minnesota?  Derek and Doogles discuss.  Come join the discussion over at HardcoreHusky.com    

After three weeks of Doogfest, the honeymoon period is over. A disastrous loss today to Stanford shows glaring warning signs in the Washington football program. Derek and Doogles review the carnage and discuss the critical importance of the upcoming tilt against Oregon. We like to refer to games as "tilts". It's what we like to do.   

Derek and Doogles respond to Washington's Sybil-like performance in beating Utah 24-21 tonight. Lots of shout outs to go around.  Come join the gang at HardcoreHusky.com!    

Derek and Doogles break down Washington's 44-27 win last night over the Arizona Wildcats. The boys were doogin' on Dylan Morris and looking ahead to what seems to be a monumental game against Oregon in three weeks. Feel free to drop by and hang out with the gang over at HardcoreHusky.com

Race and iDawg respond to the news that Emmert was bringing back Willingham for the 2008 season. Recorded in December 2007.  

Another classic installment from the Husky Half Brains Podcast. This episode is from Nov 2007, when half the UW defense was playing zone and half was in man-to-man, as WSU's Alex Brink threw for 900 yards to lead the Cuogs to the Apple Cup win.  Now with a 4-8 record, would the Huskies make a coaching change? Surely a team like UW would hold higher standards than this. I wonder what Race and...

In recent years, many newcomers to Hardcore Husky have inquired about the lore of our site. Well, prior to HH there was the Husky Half Brains. They were the precursor. Without the Half Brains, there would be no Hardcore Husky today.  This episode was from the old Husky Half Brains Podcast that starred Race Bannon and iDawg. In essence, the show ran from 2007-2010. It was created because nobod...

Today we reconnect with Koopdog, aka "The Sweatpants General".  We had lunch at Twede's also known as the cafe from Twin Peaks. Fair warning: We can't say that this is the most inspirational episode ever recorded. There's really nothing to be excited about between a flailing UW and weakened Pac-12. Toward the end of the show, Koop delivers a nice memorial for his mom who recently passed away....

Derek Johnson, Purple Baze and Doog de Jour discuss the coronavirus situation, before sharing their first memories of UW Football.
