Most devastating on-field moment as a Husky fan?

1990 vs. UCLA: Tommy Maddox to Sean LaChappelle setting up UCLAs game winning field goal, costing UW the Natty

Kenny Wheaton pick 6 off Damon Huard vs Oregon (1994)

Being an old fart I was listening to Steele's fumble on the radio while on the golf course. Pissed me off but not a real impact like the P6 which ignited the Ducks - ignited as gave their program a life. I think that is when UofO football began, they did not have sports before that game.

Marcus Welnel picking off D-Mo vs Montana (2021)

Just realized I should have done a Write-In. I went to Husky camp when I 11. I was playing catch for warm up and an asshole kid kept intentionally throwing it over my head over and over again. David Kilpatrick was my coach and came over and took over and told me the kid was a dick. Good guy. Was still nice after I threw a pick six in a scrimmage played sideways on the field.

College football was invented via one play in 1994. NEM.

Leap by the lake - I was there and it happened right in front of us. Really stung.

Also, Notre Dame receiver left uncovered... easy TD for the win. Lambo really couged that game.

Losing FG at Michigan after 12 men on the field is definitely up there.

Brunell interception late in 1990 loss to UCLA is up there.

Other: Center going out for the season against Michigan State when I thought maybe we? had an outside chance.

Edit: maybe it was Tulsa. Idk, idgaf. Long live center. ✊

I still want Ortege Jenkins to DIACF over that. It was truly in my mind the death of Husky football as we had gotten cheese grater raped the week prior by Nebraska after being as high as #9(?). We folded after that and went .500 I believe, and I was soul-sick all year.

Gilbertson as Head Coach watching Cal play a lifeless UW team in Berkeley. It was then I realized there was no floor to how bad the Huskies could be. Heartbreaking plays happen. What happened to UW 2000-2010 was indescribably bad.

54-7. My dad called me from a San Jose hotel and said he was on the 19th floor and contemplating jumping from the ledge.

I just realized that we're talking about games with Curtis Williams notwithstanding...

I don't hate Ortege. Didn't hate him then either.

I hate the shit-as-fuck defense & Lambo. They are to blame for that abortion. Ortege made a great play.

That game was a close second. No California/Rose Bowl vacay for me. Sad!

Lambo was two(or was it 3?) plays away from 2--or 3?-- Rose Bowls. @puppylove_sugarsteel

I watched 2 defenders stand there in the endzone, tugging each other, as Jenkins started running with the ball. No idea why the two didn't run towards Jenkins as soon as he crossed the LOS. Total lack of situational awareness due to shit coaching...

He leaped into the west endzone, hence, not possible for it to be right in front of you.

Browning fumble on goal line vs Auburn (2016)

I'd add Ross FUMBLE against Bama.

We were driving on our way to score, then he fumbles and all was lost.
