It's almost hard to believe how fucking shitty you guys were for quite some time
Hard to believe? Not really. UW still manages to find a way to lose to ASU every year.
that reminds me... a game I heard on the radio with my dad in 1982... Huskies went to ASU when Sun Devils were 9-0 and ranked #3. ASU passed out roses before the game. Huskies won 17-13. Famous one-handed TD catch by Aaron Williams at the goal line. My hands were sweaty and I remember the smell of dad's tobacco smoke as we sat in the den listening to Bob Rondeau.
I remember the game. No TV. ASU on probation. A Dawg, Rondeau called, classic.
A game no one thought we? would win against a team barking they deserved a #1 ranking after they demolished our Dawgs. Not so fast fuckers.
Counter traps, Jacque Robinson broke it off in Tony Casillas and Brian Bosworth’s ass. TUFF defense. A little help from the Sooner Schooner.
The players hoisted James on their shoulders when the final gun sounded. James thrust his arm up, index figure raised—#1. A night to remember.
On Monday, we woke up from our bender and remembered we dumped a close game to SC. The Mormons— their unblemished WAC season and bowl victory over a six win shit Michigan squad—stole our Natty.
I was working in Alabama for McDonnell/Douglas on space shuttle stuff and they were not going to televise that USC game except regionally - I had been negotiating with a company for returning to the great northwest trying to get more $$$$ from them at the same time. Quickly accepted a lower paying job - quit Alabama on Tuesday, left my wife and two little kids in Bama and mad dashed cross country to have my fucking heart ripped out by USC 16-7. Wife drove out with her father a couple weeks later while I went drinking and to strip clubs on a week long bender before having to start work. Can't understand why that marriage never worked out....

1981 USC
When Chuck Nelson’s FG broke up a 3 - 3 tie and then we recovered the ensuing kickoff in the end zone to seal the victory.
Bow down
Just skip to 16:30 on the vid.

For mostly sentimental reasons as this happened right in front of me. Too young to remember the glory 90s games.
