imageGreat Moments from the Husky Time Capsule: Washington vs. USC

It's true, the rivalry between Washington and USC lost much of its luster in the past decade. But historically, the Huskies and Trojans have had many hard-hitting battles. The 1991 game in Los Angeles was one such affair.

    I was in an O club in Danang in 1972. Butkis was in Danang at the same time as part of some USO tour. He came in the club with a group of civilians. It pissed me off. I didn't recognize him or any of the "celebrities" he was with. I walked over to the group and told them civilians had no business in the club and told them to get out.

    Butkis introduced himself and gave me and autograph, "to the only man I've ever backed down from in a bar."

    I attended that 1991 UW-USC game in the Coliseum and it was tense. Like coach Hart, I couldn't relax until the final gun. I believe it was UW's toughest win in that undefeated season, even tougher than the win at CAL which is often termed the closest the 1991 Huskies came to defeat. UW still owned CAL in football back then while beating the Trojans in L.A. was a whole different kind of challenge. As for Hoffman, his individual performance in the Coliseum against USC that year was I think the best we saw him have in his Husky career and I don't recall that he ever had a bad game.

    I was at the 1991 game. I remember late in the game a USC receiver caught a ball while in the endzone, but the ball didn;t cross over. So they settled a FG and we held on. USC gained exactly ZERO yards in the 4th quarter. I do remember thinking if they had made the score 14-7, it would have been a real tense last few minutes.......

    Can it be that it was all so simple then?
    Or has time re-written every line?
    If we had the chance to do it all again
    Tell me, would we? could we?
