bigger than winning a Rose Bowl.
The next season UW beat #11 Michigan, #9 Washington State and #10 Stanford. But I'm hearing that team was an embarrassment and the first signs that Rick sucked.
Then you have the next year where Washington beat both rivals, Oregon and #3 Washington State. This win is obviously much bigger than beating the number 3 team in the country that also happens to be your in state rival in their house though. Obviously.
Now we hit the Keith Gilbertson era and he never beat a top 10 team, I mean that's ridiculous. Except for the time he beat #8 Washington State. But that win isn't as good because it was the end of the season against a team that had actually earned a top 10 ranking not against a Stanford team early in the year that hasn't actually done anything to earn their ranking.
I will concede that the win was bigger than any win under Tyrone Willingham.
Then we have the Sarkisian seasons. Wins over #3 USC, #16 Nebraska team that everyone thought was better than that, #8 Stanford, and #7 Oregon State.
Hey, good for you guys if Peterman is the guy but there have been a lot of wins over a lot of top 10 teams that amounted to a whole lotta nothing the last 15 years.
Feel free to doog it up. I'll be the guy at the end of the season saying I told you so.
It was a great game and a huge win.
But God damn, we are getting way ahead of ourselves here.
Im pretty sure I said washington was going to beat stanford to send husky fans over the edge only to come crashing back down to earth after beatings at the hands of the big brother ducks and those pesky sundevils, I just didn't think the majority of the hardcore husky boards was going to fall in to the trap.
It's not good when phineas of all fucking people is hitting the nail on the head here. We may have to make hardcorehusky.forumotion.com after this prediction comes to true. Christ.
I don't believe you're a millenial at all. I don't think "real burners" is or has ever been a thing
But I still think it's the biggest win since Miami (and even bigger) because it came when TSINFO and it was absolute domination. We simply survived in most of those other wins you mentioned (and the 2000 win over OS who nobody realized was good ended up huge and deserves mention). I can't remember the last time we Autzen parking lot'ted a supposedly very good team, especially not when we were supposedly a very good team ourselves.
The combination of destroying a school who's been at the top of the conference and living up to our own hype is something we haven't seen in ages. It might end up leaving nothing but damn it if it doesn't feel meaningful as hell right now.
On National TV meaning we're being discussed including by recruits.
It was a physical domination of the most physical P12 team.
It shows Peterman has us headed n the right direction.
This team has something like 66freshmen and soph.
This year I have hope because ...
They survived Arizona ... a game they lost up until this year.
And then clown stomped Stanford.
It all adds up to one fact:
Next year is going to be special.
