The 91 team was a totally different thing. You just knew no one would score enough to beat UW. If UW got up by more than two scores, the game was over.
I told all the Cougs on the playground that the Huskies were the best ever and if they disagreed to meet me at the monkey bars after school and say it to my face!
This season feels more like 2000, above average but not elite talent with 100% guts. don’t spend too much time analyzing the game or you might consider self harm
The '91 season was basically a four-month long orgasm
It really was. That team was so clearly better than everyone they played, there was never any doubt as to the outcome. During my lifetime, only Carroll's peak Trojans had that je ne sais quoi.

THIS.....let's be honest it has been a frustratingly a fun season.

Disagree. Frustrating as fuck, but not a whole lot of fun. Doesn't matter who they play, they figure out a way to make sure the other team is in it to the end. Don't get me wrong, I'm very happy they're unbeaten with a winning streak that extends well into last season. But this is a team capable of losing to pretty much anybody.
I can remember a couple of times during the Cal game in 91, and during the USC game in 91 when I was nervous ... for about 10 minutes, cumulatively ... beyond that, every game was like watching a bunch of mercenaries (hi Bill Walsh) fuck up a group of unarmed terrorists.
Just watching that team was like an injection of testosterone.
It was NOTHING like sweating out every play, every Saturday.
All 12-0's are not created equal but I'll savor them both just as richly.

The weed and shit talk were abundant.
Wait... You're allowed to get up by two scores? Holy shit! Quick, send our fastest runner with this message to DeBoer! There's still Tim!
Did you spend the whole 1991 season sending faxes to eachother hyperventilating about how much you hate everything about the team?
I suppose I spent it working for a living, forking 60% of my money over for worthless turds sucking off the government teat, while hoping to get a spare 10 minutes to watch my favorite college football team. But I expect you gen-x-y-z-+ faggots wouldn’t understand that.

It is just not this teams style. They like to get down and dirty and keep it tight.
I can't speak for the other old fucks but I was on staff at the UW as a software developer and so had access to the early version of the internet just after Al Gore invented it. We didn't have GUI web browsers yet but there were some text based alpha versions of the Lynx browser available (or a precursor to it). I think I mainly argued with a guy from the east coast that went on to start some computer football poll that is still around today.

'91 was a complete and total pleasure to watch.
I did bitch and moan that James wouldn't put 60 on anybody because it was a fucking beauty contest with Miami all season and I think we should have put 60 on the board about 4 fucking different times and taken both fucking polls@!!!
