    Arizona in 1992. 22 game win streak heading in, but no Camaro. Dawgs ranked #1 after Zona goes wide right against @creepycoug in the Orange Bowl. A young HS aged Yella stomps down to his room and starts melting down to Pweston levels throwing out every explicative I knew.

    1990 was the first year I had consciousness as UDub fan but don't recall being that emotional about UCLA. My old man was losing his shit though.

    Listen to Keith at about 2:30 describe the Washington Huskies as being DOOMED! 4:00 mark for clip of wide right against Miami. Fans ripping down the goal posts before the game was over.

    RIP Bruce Snyder!
    Is this some kinda whoosh @dtd ?

    I remember quite a few fans being upset about Lambo getting the head coaching job, he was a great D mind but didn't necessarily translate to being a great captain. Lambo losses > Petersen losses...We used to lose while putting up a fight, yeah, good tims. Don't twist, I love Lambo

    Where to start?

    Doogism is a progressive disease, so I continuously redefine rock bottom as the meltdowns add up.

    I remember really wanting 10 wins heading into the holiday bowl in1996 and loved Corey Dillon. We went up 14-0 and was celebrating with my dad before we choked it away, leaving me inconsolable.

    But excluding child tantrums, the 12 men on the field against Michigan left me feeling truly robbed for the first time.

    Good call. Forgot about that game and it was definitely disappointing.

    An underreported note of the ‘95 Notre Dame game was that Seattle was wayyy more abuzz with the “Refuse to Lose” Mariners.

    I was a pledge slanging hot dogs at that game and an exodus of dawg fans left to watch the M’s while UW was still in it.

    I really hate the Mariners. They could win it all next year and I would not GAF
