Good Friday morning Dawg fans. There’s plenty of news to get to today, so let’s not waste any more time and get right to it!

Football Dots

  • Our annual Spring Positional previews got underway Wednesday, with our own Raymond Lucas Jr. previewing the quarterbacks.
  • And I covered the wide receivers and tight ends yesterday.
  • I would like to wish Kaleb McGary a happy retirement, as he announced Wednesday that he’s hanging it up at age 31, after 7 years in the NFL.

Athletics Dots

Throwback Game Of The Week

Remember the Alamo? I’ve never been, but the Huskies have! Twice as a matter of fact, losing their first Alamo Bowl (in one of the craziest football games I can remember) to Baylor 67-56. But we’re not talking about that one today. Instead, we’re talking about 2022. This was the first of the Huskies’ 2 showdowns with the Longhorns, and I can remember a particular frustration with the ESPN crew being their effusive, fawning praise of Texas QB Quinn Ewers. Still, Michael Penix took what the defense gave him, leading the Huskies to a 27-20 victory with a 287 yard, 2 touchdown performance. Other highlights include Wayne Taulapapa breaking off a 42 yard touchdown run, the “Frankenstein” flea flicker, and Jalen McMillan leading the team with 5 catches for only 58 yards and a touchdown.

That’s all for today, so thank you all for making Dots a part of your morning and as always, Go Dawgs!
