It's tuff to explain how beating the #1 team in the biggest game on the last day of the season makes one a champion.
I really don't know what they were thinking.
Weren’t UW ranked like 6th going into the game? You don’t become #1 just by beating the top ranked team.
Minnesota and Mississippi split the championship as far as the rest of the world is concerned including UW until like 8 years ago.
UW claimed it at the time
I was there. Really
They won the poll taken after the bowls
It's a fact. It was in the contemporary media guides
“The Great Rose Bowl Hoax occurred during halftime. As seen by an estimated 30 million television viewers, students from nearby Caltech altered the plans for the Washington card stunts, which spelled "CALTECH" instead of "HUSKIES" and showed the Caltech Beaver mascot instead of the Washington Husky.”
Sounds like your recruiting rivals were up to no good that day.

You actually have to recruit in order to have rivals.

I remember that too
I had two prized possessions as a kid
The Sports Illustrated with Schorledt on the cover and the media guide for the 1961 Rose Bowl that was the Minnesota game
My folks were season ticket holders so we got the media guide every season
Hell I have media guides going back to the 80s in a box somewhere
I would most likely scoff at it myself but I grew up dreaming of a return to glory

Their? name was Bill Schroeder. And the Helms Foundations wasn’t a foundation. It was a bakery.
So Bill Schroeder just made up his own Pole at the end of each season sponsored by a bakery owned by a guy named Paul Helms.
Come to think of it, let’s not let Kyler in on this. I’m not sure he could take it one day before the big game.
Record: 6-4
Beat Ohio State 38-22 in Columbus

The only NC award out of the west coast.
As a fan of a west coast team you ought to appreciate that rivalry or not.
