2016 I don't know if it's up there with the best but it should be mentioned as just the last season that the Pac was actually worth a shit with one team making the playoffs (without any controversy at all) and another team winning a rose bowl against a good team, and a 2-3 other 10 win teams.
Overall I generally liked watching the Pete USC teams. They were legitimately impressive (not running some scheme or shit) and dominated out of conference. That game against Cal and Rodgers was an all timer. Washington was just ass.
Thought about 2016. UW to the CFP (last Pac-12 team). All time Rose Bowl fun to watch with Pac-12 winning. Complete implosion by Oregon. It's just getting beaten down by USC in Seattle stings. I liked watching Darnold other than against UW. It's too bad McCaffrey was banged up most of the year.
2018 is interesting. I liked Minshew but stealing the conference from the Coug at the end was fun. The conference sucked. USC imploded. Loses points for Oregon looking like they somehow wouldn't be terrible under Crisco.

The shitty part about that USC game was it felt close or that UW was going to come back after Rapp intercepted it. Then we settle for a limp dick field goal and get it blocked. UW played one of their two worst games of the year on defense but this time they didn't have the luxury of doing it against Arizona.
1991 - my mom sold her couch in August and I went to stay with family in New Jersey for a couple weeks before going off to basic training.
I think I saw 2 games all year, Nebraska and the Rose Bowl and then got updates on Sundays either from talking to my brother or the sports page. The Rose Bowl was memorable with both my brothers, my dad and a friend who sold his couch in a car accident a few months later.
I thought UW was gonna be a college football dynasty after that season.

Us Gen X'ers were a smaller generation.
