I've never been in the 84 Natty camp. We lost to SC and BYU was undefeated.

But after weeks of reading Duck fans essays on why Oregon>Washington despite the loss. Margin of victory against common opponents. Displays of dominance. The only loss was on the road against a GOOD but not great team (like the 84 SC game? 😉) I've had a change of heart and one I'm sure even @MikeSeaver must agree with

After some perspective, HANG THE FUCKING BANNER! 2 Natties, 1.5 at minimum. Pump my gas!

    UW should absolutely HTB for 1984.

    Fuck off zeros

    Bakery, one random newspaper, champions.

    That’s just the truth.

    I get it that virtually all of our best post season wins are more than 20 years in the rearview mirror, but god damned it, pods, beating #2 Barry Switzer in the Orange Bowl beats any single win the Duck's have ever had.
    I liked beating the #2 defending national champions and defending Heisman trophy winner in the same game.

    By a lot.

    The only qualification was “Any single win.”

    I didn’t make the rules.

    That was a great win for Oregon. No means, No.

    But still that FSU team was soft as shit despite being undefeated and defending champs.

    Jimbo wasn't a great coach as evidenced by recent events. Barry Switzer on the other hand, well....

    And then beat #1 Nebraska in Lincoln and #3 Okie State in Bedlam. 1984 OU was a GREAT team.

    Don’t get me wrong. I’m not saying 9-2-1 OU wasn’t a great team.

    I’m just saying other people might say that a team that failed to win 3 of its 12 games MIGHT not have been an all timer.

    I have mad respect for you all going out to Miami and beating them though.

    They we're 9-1-1 before they played Washington. The tie was against #1 Texas.

    1 win and 1 tie in the same season against the #1 teams in the country ain't too shabby.

    How many players had FSU lost in the draft?

    My good buddy the late Trevor Moawad (look him up) told me Jimbo confided in him they were playing with house money. But congrats on the consolation. Your brother OBK posted pics of the consolation trophy. MANY Tims.

    Personally, my perennial ESPN fantasy baseball champ virtual trophies I won back in the mid late 90s when I used to waste tim doing that shit were more impressive. But whom am I to piss on your one moment in tim?

    One could argue Rus has never been the same.

    Sad. Seriously.
