Monday Dots: Start Yr Engines

Happy Monday Dawg fans, and welcome to today’s Dots.

We are now in-season, with the first opponent of 2023 coming to Montlake this Saturday — a good ol’ 12.30pm kickoff vs the Broncos of Boise State.

• Ethan Kilbreath of the UW Daily spoke with the sports editor of Boise State’s student newspaper The Arbiter to get the dish on this Broncos team.
• With the loss of RB Cam Davis, Dan Raley breaks down the rest of the running backs and ranks them in expected depth-chart order. Says Ryan Grubb: “I’m wanting to see some separation, to be honest, and I haven’t seen anybody separate yet..”
• Kate Shefte from Seattle Times reports on “UW’s Elijah Jackson not taking starting cornerback spot for granted: ‘I haven’t done anything yet’”
• Eight writers from the Athletic pick which teams will make the CFP. UW and USC get a few nods. Oregon, Utah, and the rest get doodly-squat.
• Also from The Athletic: “College football’s three new clock rules for 2023 and how they’ll change your Saturdays”

• Hey SDSU, save this for when you’re in the Pac-12,, uh never mind.

• I love that Alex Grinch is somehow tied to Lincoln Riley’s hip.

Go Dawgs!!
