The Pac-10 severely sanctioning UW in '93 when the Huskies were on top of the world looks even more ridiculous now that the conference is imploding.
They crushed USC in the oughts The dropped the hammer, allegedly, on Chip and Oregon They hate winners
I think the difference was USC and Oregon were sanctioned by the NCAA whereas Washington was sanctioned by its own conference? Which is bonkers business for a conference. In hindsight the move may have been to go independent in 93. I’m not sure if logistically possibly with scheduling though.
