    I think if I had a favorite apple cup, which I don't, it would be 2000...... my last trip to Pullman and Martin Stadium. Most special were the "six more... six more" chants on that last Husky offensive drive calling for Tui to score again. The 51-3 coog stomping was only the second blowout Husky win in that Rose Bowl winning season, the first being the 44-20 trashing of WSU's sodbuster brethren Idaho to start the season. Seemed ironic to sandwich that special season (which was our last with double-digit wins) between the two Palouse Puke losers. Perhaps that was a curse.

    2013... if it forces a coaching change. Otherwise, 2000.

    Disagree. At the time, I didn't care that we lost and found it pretty funny. Looking back though, I wish we would have won so that the 0-12 excuse never existed.

    I was being sarcasmic.

    I knew Ty had already fired himself so i was definitely rooting for UW in that one. Depressing weather, depressing performance, depressing outcome. Perfect ending to the Moulder of Men's UW career, but you're right, doogs have given the field goal's difference between 1-11 and 0-12 way too much weight.

    My favorite Apple Cups were 2000 because we were finally returning to the Rose Bowl. I froze my ass off at that game but it was worth it to storm knowing we were heading to Pasadena once again. The fact it was a blow out 51-3 in their house made it that much more sweeter.

    I loved 2002 because for once the Cougs were the big favorites with everything to lose. UW won in their house still to this day pisses them off.

    Even though I knew at the time long term it was bad for us seeing how it was my senior year I was in the Student Section the 2003 game was pretty damn cool.

    2003, defended our 27 years of not sucking streak, ended the cougs rosebowl hopes, rushed the field, the last time i really dooged it up. that was the loudest game i've experienced at HS. I remember thinking "this year sure sucked, it can only get better from here" little did i know that was a high water mark for the next 6 years.

    I wasn't

    I had a 4 hour grin watching that game, to where I probably resembled the Joker.
