    I'll go with it. What's the best home win since that 2000 team beat Miami? Don't say #3 USC in 2009, they ended up going 5-4 (good for 6th in the P12).

    I mean how often do you beat the team that finishes the season ranked #2? That win is likely to hold up for a very long tim.
    Completely. I mean they didn’t lose again for 30+ games until the tOSU Clarett/Tressel fiesta bowel.

    I would suggest that no football team has ever played in Husky stadium with as much talent on the roster as 2000 Miami. And that includes when the Seahawks played there.

    (No idea how to do the research to back that up so I’ll go with it)
    Not really going to argue the point but some legendary USC teams have been to Husky Stadium

    John McKay teams loaded with hall of fame guys

    Either way

    Either 2016 Stanford or 2022 Oregon St

    Both were 10 win teams
    Trick question, same year beating 2000 11-1 Beavlet who probably woulda won the natty if we didn't ruin it.

    Excluding 2000?

    I'm going to say Michigan State 2022 just so Damone suffers a stroke when he reads this over tears and whisky as he lurks logged out.
    Yeah hard to say anything since then compares to beating that ranked Oregon State team.

    Sadly both Miami and Beav smoked us in the return games in 2001.

    I know you're being sarcastic but I don't abide by fully diminishing ranked wins just because they end up looking worse later in the season.

    The obvious reason is that if said ranked team doesn't lose then they would have another win and have a better record. The second less supported reason is that athletes of all levels are walking, running mental midgets that can and do get swayed in confidence by things like an early ass kicking by a big out of conference team.

    The fact they couldn’t bounce back mentally from the beat down is evidence they weren’t that good.

    Well you should abide. Early rankings are subjective bullshit based on a few fat fuck writers who couldn't hack it at actual publications and had to settle for sports. MSU proved themselves to be a bottom rung B10 team. Them being top 15 for the first couple of weeks was completely meaningless.

    Since you were there, you are right. I had to go look it up.

    The U 2000 team still only has 1 HOFer: Ed Reed.
    Reggie Wayne and Andre Johnson are the other two who seem likely to make the hall, but with the inflation of WR stats who knows when or if that will happen.
    Vince Wilfork was a freshman and he is the other who might make it. I mean someone from those Patriots teams besides Brady/Belichik has to. I don't think Jonathan Vilma did enough.

    1957 and 1959 hosting USC, Trooj has Willie Wood and Ron Mix.

    1979 hosting USC should have had Marcus Allen, Ronnie Lott, Anthony Munoz and Bruce Matthews on the team. That's the only year the 4 of them were on the same roster (going off their wikipedia career info). 1981 would have had Allen and Matthews, 1977 Munoz and Lott.

    I think Johnson gets in before Wayne.
