The guys from Dawgman.com - Chris Fetters and Scott Eklund - got together Friday to produce their weekly pregame show, and this one against Iowa felt very similar to Washington's pregame show against Minnesota.
The Huskies are playing another traditional Big Ten program known for power and toughness, and they're doing it with continued question marks on offense, specifically with quarterback Demond Williams and the run game.
But before they tackle that side of the ball, Chris and Scott talked about the main talking point coming out of the Iowa camp this week, the questionable status of quarterback Hank Brown and what that means for backup Jeremy Hecklinski. Unlike Minnesota's Drake Lindsey, Hecklinski has very little college experience. He's never started a game before. Can the Huskies' defense turn Iowa one-dimensional on offense and force Hecklinski to beat them through the air? That could prove tricky as the Hawkeyes have some varied threats to their passing game.
Switching over to the other side, Chris and Scott continue the discussion that was left after Washington's four-point loss at USC. The storylines are the same; can Demond Williams simplify his game, take the easy money and stop holding on to the ball for so long? And can the run game continue to evolve now that Brian Bonner has a couple of strong outings under his belt?
Landen Hatchett is considered 'probable' heading into the game, so what would his inclusion mean for the Washington offensive line? And will Jedd Fisch continue using John Mills at left tackle instead of freshman Kodi Greene?
Much like Minnesota, the Hawkeyes have been very, very good in special teams, especially their return games. Can the Huskies keep them at bay similar to what they were able to do against the Golden Gophers?
Either way, the guys are expecting more of a rock fight than a shootout, that's for sure.
Scott provides a quick recruiting update before the guys finish up the pregame show with their final thoughts. And for those fans going to the game - GET THERE EARLY! We know how getting around Seattle on a Friday afternoon can be.
