In case you missed it, Oregon beat Washington in 2000.
My point is that Rick lucked out into that Rose Bowl against a weak Big-10 Champion. You’re the dumb ass, Dom, that thought Hedges made this terrific hire.Rick’s Colorado team got worse every season he was there.Rick inherited a great team. Coach McCartney’s choice to succeed him was nixed by the lobbying of the Weasel.How did he do at Washington? UCLA?
At the 2012 Rose Bowl against Wisconsin (which Oregon won), Wisconsin’s QB was Russell Wilson, Dom. Ever heard of him DILDO?The rest of the 2001 Purdue Rose Bowl team was average. They finished the season 8-4.They lost to Notre Dame, Penn State and Michigan St. in the regular season.Finished ranked 13th in the AP: below Washington, Oregon State and Oregon.

Those were Oregon's best teams which you compare to UW's.UW had one the best teams in college football history.Oregon's best went 0fer, and didn't even have the Pac working against them.Zeroes. In football and in life.

Every discussion of UW football will eventually involve 1991. Every. Single. Time. Telling.

How’d you do against the U, the following year AT MIAMI?Need a reminder?
2001 -Miami 65, Washington 7 @ Orange Bowl.Great job, Rick.
Rick as Head Coach @ UCLA: 2008-20110-4 vs Oregon, including a 61-13, beat down at Autzen Stadium after running his mouth about Chip Kelly’s system being gimmicky. Game included an unexpected onside kick by Oregon in second half recovered by Oregon.How did Rick exit the three head coaching jobs he weaseled his way into?How did he exit Washington? Lawsuit, NCAA infractions, volunteer coach at Rainier Beach?Slick Rick . . .

Neither preseason poll has FSU in their top-25. UGA at #14 and #UW at 15. Based on what? Sark is coaching UT, someone tell Colin. SC is very thin in the trenches were games are won and lost. His love affair with SC is almost creepy. But the biggest laugher, Minnesota at #19. They'll beat a bunch of Michigan directional schools and then get smacked in conference play. Colin is getting exactly what he wanted. Clicks.
As 2000 and 2018 showed, beating Oregon rarely matters. Especially with no divisional restrictions now.
