Stop living in the past!!!!
Awwww who am I kidding? NTD, BB -
That was a surprisingly good list. Thanks for posting it.

The 72 Trojans were an awfully great team. What a cool day to be ranked ahead of them

2008 USC belongs. That team lost a Thursday night game at Oregon State but dominated every other game and finished the season #2. They probably had the best defense after the '91 Huskies.
2000 UW should be ranked ahead of both 01' Oregon and '13 Stanford. Neither of those teams beat Miami. 2000 Oregon State was probably better than any team they beat as well. -
2013 Stanford SUCKED

Allegedly that's when the Sark/Erin Andrews hookup happened.RoadDawg55 said:2008 USC belongs. That team lost a Thursday night game at Oregon State but dominated every other game and finished the season #2.

Beating #14 Purdue after a 3 way tie for the Pac10 championship is always special.RoadDawg55 said:2008 USC belongs. That team lost a Thursday night game at Oregon State but dominated every other game and finished the season #2. They probably had the best defense after the '91 Huskies.

Thanks for putting the high point of Husky football in my lifetime (born in '90, so have no memory of the good times) in perspective.MikeSeaver said:

Asshole. -
There have been a lot of high points in my life, so I can speak with some authority... that team was pretty good, but Marques was incredible. There was no shame in a 3 way tie for first that year, because the other two teams were really fucking good.HelfrichFamilyVan said:

Asshole.
We beat Purdue pretty handily in the RB and if we'd played a better team I suspect we'd have beaten them the way we beat pretty much every other team that year: Marques magic. We beat a lot of good teams that year because Marques was fucking special.
I've never seen a QB who was a winner like Marques, quite honestly. The rest of that team was a 8-4 team, but Marques was a fucking ace. His WRs were lol-worthy and the tailbacks on that team were craptastic.
If you put the '13 UW skill players on that team (Kasen, Kev Smith, ASJ, Sankey, John Ross, fuck Mickens), we would've destroyed everyone. We had one decent skill player on that team (Stevens); everyone else was a below average player (Hooks, #myelstrom, fucking Pat Reddick, Justin Robbins).
Our defense was decent, but really only had 4-5 actually good players: Tripplett, Pharms (who was more scary than good), Daniels, Akbar. Fucking Owen Biddle started a game for us. -
I'd argue there was actually a lot of talent in the '00 secondary. Lowe, Vontoure, Curtis W, Derrick J, Alexander we're all big time talents -- albeit at different stages of development.
Paul Arnold, Rich Alexis, Chad Ward. There were some players on that team. Nothing like '91, though.
