    Sure, we've had better overall teams in years past, but 2023 presents the greatest marketing opportunity ever for UW.

    1) Boys in the Boat hits movie theaters on December 25th and Clooney gets wins Best Director Oscar

    2) Our first ever legit Heisman Trophy candidate

    3) Serious CFP contender

    It all starts on Saturday. Beat OU - Nothing Else Matters!


    Napoleon Kaufman wasn't a legit candidate?
    Did he go to NY?

    In 1994, he was a second-team All-American, finished ninth in Heisman Trophy voting (receiving three first-place ballots), and is a member of the University of Washington Hall of Fame. As of 2022, Kaufman still held UW's career all-purpose yardage record, amassing 5,832 total yards.
    Returning for his senior year to a Lambo team that was on probation and stumbled to 7-4 while birthing Oregon. For his loyalty alone he deserves a fucking statue next to Don James

    He rushed for 1,440 yards that year and had his team been USC or Notre Dame he would have won it going away. To say he wasn't legit is fucking heresy you hammrhead. Puh!
    His friends call him Nap

    Boys on a boat? Stop living in the past pisssnow. You were not even there, only race was there

    I've met them IRL when they were in their early 80s you bonio. And there's a direct lineage from those boys to all the crews that came in their wake.
    Cool story bro
    I know.
    By that logic, do you also feel a great lineage to Ted Bundy?

    No. Ted Bundy wasn't a row peter puffer.

    1. Very excited for the movie. What do you think of Edgerton cast as Ulbrickson? I’m a big Joel Edgerton guy. Doesn’t take bad gigs

    2. I’m trying to warn everyone here—no one out west has a shot if Michigan goes 13-0. The maize and blue national media will make sure it goes to their boy JJ, even though he’s a JAG in a run-heavy offense
    I don't have an opinion yet. But in preview pics her looks the part.

    I’d watch this regardless of UW affiliation. Just to see Nazis lose. I know, TITTT.

    I remember Musburger hyping up Nip before the Miami game. He had done well against Ohio State. Miami shut him down and UW won rather easily without him. Then the season went to shit

    Chandler was a contender in 86. Team did not perform

    Same with Pickett going in to his senior season.
    Ohio State ended that in a hurry

    Has there ever been a season that went more to shit than '94 on so many levels?

    No

    I already hated Lambo as head coach but that sealed it in an impenetrable tomb
