1. The point spread vs. OSU in 1985 was 37 points. At the time, it was the biggest upset in collegr history from a point spread perspective.Mortonhusky said:If I remember right, the point spread on that osu game was 41 points. I remembered it for years as 44 points but made comment one time about it at doogman and someone said 41 points.
2. I only remember being disappointed/mad with Coach James once in regards to clock management. I was down in the LA Coliseum in 1989 when were down 24-16 in the 4th quarter and watched the clock run 5:00... 4:00... 3:00... 2:00 and we had all our timeouts but wouldn't use them. It was like we threw in the towel.
Note: Pure freshman Tommie Smith blocked a punt and recovered it for a touchdown in that game. -
Did he ever use the timeouts? Christ, Twitter and dawgman chat must have been going crazyDerekJohnson said:

That was the one I thought of too. James scoffed that they couldn't stop them all day. He was pissedDerekJohnson said:

Psst. UW didn't lose because of "clock management issues."jecornel said:Don James certainly had some rough losses but I don't recall many lost on clock management issues.

When Derek said LA game in 1989, I was thinking of the one we won vs UCLA. I think Greg Lewis took charge at the end. The thing I remember about that game was watching Tom Glasgow's wrap up show on KIRO and seeing some dorky white dude freshman on the sideline getting all excited. I looked up his number and found out he was from Cheney and thought "what a clown. that guy will never play." Back when we played both LA school on the road in the same year.
To Race's article, in 2010 I wanted Sark fired after the Nebraska game, and I wanted him fired NOW after the Stanford game, the single worst display of Husky football I had or have ever seen (I was not in Berkeley in 2003.) After we won out, Race made the point that in the middle of the season we wanted Sark to change and feed Polk and we might start winning, and after he did that and we did that, then we really should put the pitchforks away because he was winning. It was the loosing that was upsetting, not some personal vendetta against Sark. If he could win, we would like him; if not, we did not. -
Someone clearly put on some sweatpants and took a walk....

so... we should all nut up and LIPO because he needs more time even though he's Chris Peterson Dammit and we should be seeing ROI right now?AtomicDawg said:
who knows? anyone yelling for petersen to be fired is a dumbass as you should give any coach 3-4 years to get his shit together.CokeGreaterThanPepsi said:
At some point the mantra of "Wait until *insert year here*" is actually true when you have a coach you trust. That mantra was bullshit with coaches like Gilby,Ty, and Sark. It is not bullshit with a coach like Petersen. That is my opinion, others can disagree with me, and that is fine.jecornel said:Wait till next year or just wait in two years this team will be special.... The mantra of the husky dan base.
Without hope? What else do you have?
Well except if you are justin verlander hope concern you.
What I am most disappointed about is we have shown little adaptation this year. THey are making adjustments after the season is over that should have been made long ago after the stanford game (IE: an offense that incorporates a lot of QB Runs).
They did play hard on Saturday and that was somewhat surprising to me. That was good. But petersen deserves a lot of criticism for this game as well as the Stanford and ASU games.
Firing him is not the answer but shit, the university has been willing to outbid the other schools in the conference for a coaching staff so I would like to start seeing some sort of ROI. Again it is year one. If we improve next year that would be truly impressive as we lose a lot of talent. Realistically I see us getting plungered all over again. Year 3 should start to turn the corner but I am sick of this fucking script. I am just as disenchanted as I was after the ASU game last year all over again.

Also, wanting to prematurely fire the right coach is a proud half brain tradition. -
People should be pissed about this year. It's a shit show. Complaining about it is just fine. If no one complained and stopped going to games there would be no pressure to win. A losing record in conference is embarrassingsarktastic said:
