Semi-related but was just thinking about how 2005 (Willingham's first) doesn't get brought up enough as an all-time bad season and basically just as bad as 2004 or 2008. They beat an atrocious Idaho team coached by Nick Holt and a terrible Arizona team. Lost to a four-win Air Force team and to a winless in-conference Coug team in Seattle.
That 2004-05 stretch of three wins and one Pac-12 win is a than the 0-12 season,. -
I attended that Air Force game. It was some of the most uninspired football I've ever watched.WoolleyDoog said:Semi-related but was just thinking about how 2005 (Willingham's first) doesn't get brought up enough as an all-time bad season and basically just as bad as 2004 or 2008.

I thought they wore the throw-back uniforms for a home game, where DH Turner hung the 1960 natty banner.DerekJohnson said:

One of the weirdest games I've ever been to. Being in Seahawks Stadium made it extra uninspiring. I was also there the next week when they lost by 40 at home to a Cal team that went 3-4 in-conference after that game with Joe Ayoob at QB.DerekJohnson said:

UW was the away team IIRC

Yes it was technically a road game. UW wore ND colors.PurpleBaze said:

Aaron Rodgers was the Cal QB that year. I actually interviewed him after that 2004 game.WoolleyDoog said:

Yes, I remember UW being the away team, but didn't remember the details of the uniform. I just remember a bunch of unmotivated stiffs going through the motions on the field. -
If memory serves me we had a lead entering the 4th quarter then proceeded to fold like a cheap KMart lawn chair.PurpleBaze said:

A white receiver from Othello killed them. Losing three times to Air Force in seven years (twice in Seattle) is an underrated pathetic metric for the program falling apart.DerekJohnson said:

Also, Aaron Rodgers was the QB in 2004 but not 2005. Somehow Willingham lose by more to the 2005 Cal team that was nowhere near as good as the 2004 team. -
Whoa my mistake. When you referenced the 40-point loss, I immediately thought back to the 2004 game where we lost 56-17 I think -- but it was 2005WoolleyDoog said:

Wait I was right about the 56-17 game being in 2004, I just looked it up. The 2005 game was 42-12.

sorting out the massive plungerings by Cal in the mid-2000s is tricky because there were so many and they were so similar.

I went to that game, the Air Farce one, and the Notre Shame one. What a waste of time and moneyWoolleyDoog said:

I took one of my kids to the away game in Seattle. Only good thing was good seats.
But the new DC coach, remember him from the op?, so was it a black guy calling the other black guy an Uncle Tom because he was hired BY a white guy?
or was it a it a black guy calling the other black guy an Uncle Tom because he was hired AS a white guy?

The 2003 game, a 54-7 loss in Berkley, my dad called me after the game. "Son, I'm calling from the 19th floor of the Acme Hotel.

And you talked him out of it and now he has had a miserable life where Husky football has drained his soul and will to live. Good job son!DerekJohnson said:

I was at that game. My first in person game since the Rose Bowl. I had never seen a team quit before until that game. Cals RB Justin F something ripped off a huge run and UWs shoulders just collapsed…in the first quarter.DerekJohnson said:
