HuskyJW was running the aisle of the North Upper Deck on that onePurpleBaze said:One of my most favorite Apple Cup finishes... Pickett to Cory Williams. I was there.
The winning TD pass is at the 2:23 mark. Need Bob Rob & Jim Walden's radio call for this. I'm too lazy to look for it.

Interception by @DerrickJohnsons at the 1:56 mark.
Everyone's favorite glasses ref, Jay Stricherz, officiating.
If I remember correctly on the cougar broadcast, it was Bob Robertson that kept yelling …”IF THATS NOT EXCESSIVE CELEBRATION I DONT KNOW WHAT IS!” -
Wasn't Walden freaking out about offensive PI?HuskyJW said:

Picket was overrated, IMO. Tough kid and Dwag, but he didn't win anything. Outside of total yardage, his numbers are pretty mediocre.

Pickett totally deserves UW HOF honors given all the others who are in and the fact that his numbers were damn good — especially given the fact it was over 20 years ago and the game was much different then.
I hate to think how UW would have done without him. I saw most of his home games and he was the real deal. -
It seemed like he was on track to have a pretty big senior season...
The coaching change really hurt and I also remember hearing after the season that he was hurt pretty early on... and played the rest of the year at a lot less than 100%.
A big senior year would've changed his legacy too... Lots of bad luck being stuck with Gilby.... -

He couldn't play the 2nd half of the Oregon game his senior year. Junior year he lit it up with Reggie
Cody, Browning and Penix are the only QBs this century to start two wins against Oregon
Does anything else matter?
The transition from Rick to Gilby sours the memories. Following Tui didn't help -
Dark days, I remember thinking at the time. Oof, and they only got darker from there.
