    lol just off the top of my head, I can think of four or five NFL players from the 91 team's offense

    While the comment that the 91 team with no offense shows somebody didn't do their homework, I'm struggling to figure out who they were.

    Kennedy had a real career. If you're counting Bruener then, yeah, he did too. Weren't the rest of the guys either cup 'o coffee or career journeymen? Berry and Bryant didn't really have careers, nor did McKay or Bailey. Who are you thinking about? Maybe Cunningham? I think he started for a while. The real NFL success of that crew, offense or defense, was Lincoln. Almost all of the other guys didn't pan out.

    You're probably also thinking of Brunnell, but he didn't play that year.
    Kennedy, Cunningham, Billy Joe (he lasted at least five or six years, even if he was a lazy flake at times), Bruener, Bailey (sort of a stretch, but he at leasted suited up for a few years), and Kaufman (he played, didn't start).

    It wasn't a historic high octane offense, but it was good to great most games.

    Kaufman started, rushed for 1k and led the league in YPC.

    He was explosive.

    Yeah, I wasn't talking about guys who made a roster and sent in play signals. Every school's numbers are markedly different if you include those guys. I forgot about Kaufman. I think Kennedy, Cunningham (sort of) and the TEs had the most success. Most of the other guys didn't get there or didn't really do much for the short time they were around.

    Actually, I'd say the offense from that team is SEVERELY underrated. If you look at Washington's box scores from that season, the thing that jumps out at you more so than the defensive stats are the offensive stats. They ran on everybody and threw on most everybody. I think the only pedestrian game the 91 offense had was against a 3-8 SC team. I remember that game. Hobert was off and they just weren't playing well. But every other game I recall, even the come from behind in Lincoln, involved a lot of yards and usually a lot of points.

    Aaron Pierce played in the league for seven seasons.

    It wasn't one of the greatest offenses of all time but it had 3 first round picks (Kennedy, Bruener, Kauffman), 4 third round picks (Malamala, Cunningham, Hobert, Pierce), two 5th rounders (McKay and Brunell), 6th rounder (Bailey) (how the fuck did McKay go before Bailey?). and 11th rounder (Rongen - yes that's a UDFA now) eight of those picks and seven that would be in the current draft started on the 91 team and whichever TE you don't count as the starter played a very big role. And perhaps the two most well known of them all came off the bench (Kauffman and Brunell).

    It was a damn talented offense, and highly underrated as you note.

    12-2

    It was a down year for us. Should have been much worse if there was actual competition in this conference. That's on you!
    Haha, 12-2 is literally the best season in school history.

    Your 91 team with no offense would have gotten rolled in a real playoff scenario. No more Michigan gimmes.

    Don't worry some kid from Idaho will get you to the mountain top....

    USC is about to take over for the better part of a decade again and there isn't anything anyone can do about it. They are located where the talent lives and Chip will poach just enough to screw over programs like Oregon and UW.
    Lol your program is the only one fucked. Petersens track record doesn't lie. Chip will crush USC. You just hired a coach with a career losing record, at a non p5.

    You are so fucked.
    It's almost as if you believe Mosster is a real quook.
