I thought the idea of moving the championship game from Oregon’s campus to Santa Clara was just brilliant.
-
Rick Neuheisel in his brief stint on the P12 Network was the only redeeming thing this shitty rebranded conference ever produced.
-
it was pretty cool how we? almost got texas/chokie into the p12, summer of 10 was hawt tawk.
other fond memories:
- my dad being absolutely furious with lambo running on the last possessions tied with usc in 1995
- being 'gameday champions'
- flying to seattle, getting food poisoning, soldiering on, and then watching bo and the husks beat us? in seattle
- ortege jenkins flip
- i did see uw win a rose bowel in person tho! it was back before al gore invented the internet
gettin misty eyed just thinkin about all these fun, fun memories. im sure the mountain west might take us though, they do have a tie in with the vegas bowl too! -
@CokeGreaterThanPepsi (RIP) Husky player girl fren hot talk with Mrs Snow at the Rose Bowl. It’s been all downhill since.

Jake Browning was the best player on the field. Enough said on that.RaceBannon said:The Championship game never really took off

Favorite memory of old Pac 12 Conference is that Jake Browning will go down as the winningest QB in conference history. Feels like a perfect representation for the shitshow that this has been. Records that won’t be broken: DiMaggio’s hit streak, Ripken’s games played streak, and BROWNING’s winning record in the now defunct P12. A true who’s who of greatest athletes of all time.DerekJohnson said:

Watching Stanford have a string of 4 Heisman finalists and absolutely bitch slapping us in front of dozens of foreign exchange students.

I enjoyed how the South was totally irrelevant

Talking with my friend when the new conference was announced:
DDJ: Hey did you hear about the two new teams added? Are we? going to be just called the “Pac 12” now?
Friend_de_Jour: Yeah. “Pac 12”, missed marketing opportunity.
DDJ: How so?
FDJ: Should’ve gone with “12 Pac” - you know, like “12 pack”? Think of all the beer company sponsorship opportunities!
DDJ: (long pause) - You’re such a nerd. -
Going to San Francisco for the P-12 Championship game and choosing to go out to dinner rather than drive to Santa Clara in Friday traffic for the game.

This is totally true. If you're the all-time winningest QB in college football it means you were too shitty to go to the NFL and were, at best, a game manager with no talent behind you on the bench.EastCoastDoog said:

The pinnacle moment was when the conference commissioner said Tyler Wrapp’s name on the podium

The rivalry games between Utah and Colorado were epic.
Colorado and Utah are rivals, right???

I've personally met and conversed with three Husky head coaches in my life tim. Rick is, by far, the most congenial, interesting, friendly and approachable of the bunch. And, yes, that includes Dong James.Doog_de_Jour said:

I don’t hate Rick, but he and my once beloved Chris Petersen are in the same category of coaches for me: TYFYS in getting us to the Rose Bowl, but they could’ve been so much better. -

That sleaze won a Rose Bowl and then popped off. Peterman bought a boat and a latte and then popped off.Doog_de_Jour said:

My favorite signature Pac-12 moment came in 2012 in the Oregon-Stanford game.
First off, the game was on a Thursday, because you want the number one ranked team in the country playing a top-15 team on a Thursday night in late November. That is just smart marketing and makes for a great football game.
The real cherry on top was when Stanford turned the ball over on downs on Zach Ertz failing to secure the ball in the end zone and landing out of bounds. Oregon just needed to run out the clock. It was overturned by replay for a touchdown. Oregon loses in OT. Any video, picture, or opinion that Ertz scored can go fuck right off.
Oregon wins that game, they probably demolish an overrated Notre Dame in the Natty. I would forever be spared from having to hear our natty to uniform combination ratio.
They probably would have lost to Oregon State the next week anyway, but I'm allowed to dream. Fuck this conference, if the Big Ten ever wants Oregon and Washington we(?) should bail out of this truck bed of a conference.

Good for him. But for this girl, you should only be popping off for national championships.creepycoug said:
