I gotta tell you, Bazey, I think 2009 might be the greatest Husky home game I've been to in the past 20 years. I never believed we would win until Jack locked in on Kearse to get us? into scoring position.PurpleBaze said:After that win, WE WERE BAAAAAACK!
- I wasn't living in Seattle in 2000 over Miamuh but would have roughed up @creepycoug tuff at 7-11 afterwards. Kane Hall would have paled in comparison.
- 2003 Apple Cup was lit and the most trash I've talked to Cuogs in person.
- 2003 I put about 20 rubber duckies in the pissers, but both of those teams were dog shit so what evs.
- 2013 plunger of Pete was kewl but anti-climatic
- 2016 'Trees was phenomenal but I was 81% confident of victory going into that game. The curb stomping was just the cerry on top. -
Although I have no leg to stand on. I called a lunch meeting for the office then cancelled it and am sitting at the bar.CFetters_Nacho_Lover said:

You see? This kind of posting will not garner the king of USC respect that we? crave. Be careful and limit how much fun you poke our overlords while they're? down.

Our? overlords are one lucky 4th choice hire from being removed from Mt Rushmore and being replaced by Oklahoma. @AUBURNTROJAN is wrong in the sense that enough mediocrity can get a program removed from Mt Rushmore. Ask Michigan about this.creepycoug said:You see? This kind of posting will not garner the king of USC respect that we? crave.

There is a peppering of truth to this.oregonblitzkrieg said:Chip Kelly ended the Cheat Carroll era. Cheat knew he couldn't compete anymore.
Oregon had caught up and then blew them into oblivion. Chip's offense made USC look like Rutgers. An absolute massacre. Harbaugh was transforming Stanford from the worst SRS team in 30 years to the toughest, dirtiest team in CFB. He was a year away from the breakthrough but still blew Pete out in the Coliseum and gleefully ran the score up that year. Stunning, inexcusable losses to AZ and UW.
The conference definitely had caught up to him, and in some cases surpassed him. I think he always wanted to return to the NFL but his 2009 on-field struggles helped push him out the door faster than he would have wanted. That and impending sanctions. -
I agree. I think in college Pete was a rich man's Dennis Erickson. They have something in a bottle that works right away, and while it's working it's a lot of fucking fun. But after you get out of the quick torque of first and second gear and try and shift up for the long speed run, something happens and the wheels come off. That happened to Dennis at each stop too.Gladstone said:

Admittedly, Pete found his forever home in the NFL here. But the very essence of his magic in LA was ephemeral ... shooting star kind of thing. Said another way, Pete would have never had a long grinding career at SC like DJ had here. Different men altogether, and thus different programs altogether. Pete's type of program eventually gets too much of itself and starts to jump the shark. Dennis was the same way in college, but unlike Pete never found his spot in the NFL. -

And, still, they are the measuring stick of this conference, and we? have never even argued otherwise. I think we? (and UCLA) still need 100 years to catch them in conference titles. Fuhghettuhboutit. This is USC's conference. We? grovel at their feet for their respeck. Just the way it is.YellowSnow said:

As to Mt. Rushmore, if they're not on it, we're? not even east of Montana.

The first couple months I was here, I probably hated @creepycoug mor than any poster here. But once he learned of my row boat prowess and Godfather quotation skillz, he got his mind right and became my wartime consigliere.Pitchfork51 said:

I think 2009 was simply a bad year for USC. Lane Kiffin went 10-2 and beat Oregon in 2011. It took Stanford 3 OT’s to beat USC. They were a good team and came into 2012 ranked #1.Gladstone said:

Pete would have gotten talent in and adjusted to the league. -
Reggie Bush was really good.

Now that's how a Husky shows proper deference to USC. That's why USC respects! Washington damnit.RoadDawg55 said:
