UW will be the first (and last (and therefore only)) Pac-12 team to play in the Sugar Bowl

The Mountain West won a Sugar Bowl


Utah beat Bama. Nobody has ever pointed that out

The only teams in the western US to play in the Sugar Bowl are: Santa Clara, Saint Mary's, Wyoming, Air Force, Hawaii, and Utah

I remember Wyoming in the 60s. Jim Kiick played there. A good documentary on the 69 team that was waylaid by racial strife like our 69 Dawgs except Wyoming was unbeaten

@haie true?

Cool fucking stat!

We're missing the Cotton, I'm sure someone can do an inventory of other teams which have played in all 5/6 (and even won all 5/6), depending on how major the Peach Bowl should be treated.

JoePa won the 5 majors in his era when PSU miraculously defeated Rich Brooks' 10 year plan to virtually win the Rose Bowl Ducks. PSU finished actually undefeated. With PSU making the Peach this year they can claim all 6 major bowls.

Probably a very short and blue blood list of those programs which have been to 5. USC wouldn't be on it with no Sugar and Peach, and Michigan has never played in the Cotton or Peach. Bama, Ohio State and FSU have been to all 6. Georgia to 5, missing the Fiesta. Notre Dame misses the Peach. That's enough looking up for now.

The Peach is fairly recent as a big bowl

2014

On who's timescale? Yours?

I remember the Peach Bowl inviting 6-4-1 Indiana teams. I never thought it deserved to be in with the rest.

So UW has won Rose and Orange, lost Peach and Fiesta and ? on Sugar?

Fuck that Fiesta loss to Penn State.

I read that Penn State has won all NY6 except the Peach, so they will be the first if they beat Ole Miss. Guessing the Big Ten will have the most since they were contracted with the Rose and Orange

Edit: of course, we know no one in the Pac-12 comes close since we're the first and only for both Sugar and Peach

USC joined us

USC has won RB, Cotton (over an unranked Texas Tech) and the OB.

They played Penn State in the Fiesta in 1982 and lost.

Oregon only has Ws (and Ls) in the Rose and Fiesta, no other appearances.

So we can join SC as the only P12 programs with wins in 3 P6 bowls (I'm assuming UCLA, ASU, Cal and Stanford haven't done that but haven't looked it up), and the only one to not have a major asterisk on it.

Presumably we can also become the only P12 program to have wins in 3 separate bowls over teams ranked in the top 3 overall:

Rose (#1 Minnesota and 3 Michigan)
Orange (#2 Oklahoma)
Sugar (#3 Texas)

Pretty sure Oregon went to Cotton instead of us in 1996 (where they lost to Neu and his Buffs)

1995/96 CB

Where *they* got plungered by Neu and his Buffs and their fourth quarter fake punt.

Stanford beat Virginia Tech in the Orange January 2011

Lost the Fiesta to Oklahoma State January 2012

When they were battling Chip

I had to Google

RaceBannon

So that's Rose and Orange

Not 3

I know there is saltiness from this and a pathetic look from Lambo but didn't realize UW actually had a better record so why didn't they go? Also, because of the scheduling, Oregon didn't have to play USC. Credit where credit do for winning in Husky Stadium though.
