What is the most greased up team to ever play the Washington Huskies?

My takeaway from this thread is that half the Pac12 was always greased up to take down UW.
Maybe another reason the B1G will be better.

One of the positives I was saying when the move to the Big 10 officially happened was this. It felt in the past nearly 10 years that like 3/4's of the conference games now were rivalry games.
Oregon & Coug - duh
Beav - Smith is a true Beav and I think was salty about not being a serious candidate twice for HC, maybe all the shit sites like this gave him as OC.
Cal - Wilcox was greased to beat UW. Guessing combo of being a Duck, not getting retained by Petersen (right?), and never getting the HC job.
Stanford - Under Shaw, he seemed triggered after he felt UW embarrassed him in 2016 and was fine with going 4-8 as long as he beat UW or Oregon. The grease trap felt emptied here though.
UCLA - Don't know what it is but this fucking underachieving, soft program always saves their best for UW.
ASU - There's no logical reason for the way this team plays against UW now for two decades but it certainly made it feel like a rivalry game.

1990 UCLA. UW had #1 on the line and UCLA was already eliminated from bowl contention. Both the Bruin players and coaches brought a special kind of grease with them that day. UCLA moved the ball on the UW defense in Husky stadium better than Natty winning Colorado did in Boulder. With Brunell missing everything and Lewis being hurt, UW just couldn’t get a firm grasp on that slippery team and their slippery game plan. Sad day for 12yo Knowledge.

Yeah but still, they seemed pretty greased up to me.

Arizona State 2017, 2022, and 2023.

ASU 1985, 1986

I just drove by Weber St the other day.

So many greased up squads. Not I can’t decide.
-
Stanford beat Sark 65-21 and 41-0 so it could be either or both of those games.
That said, it was after the 41-0 game when Harbaugh was heard telling his team in the locker room they just beat the highest paid coaching staff in the Pac10.
-
I feel like a greased up team has to be a team with equal or lesser talent.
2006 USC wouldn’t qualify as being greased up but 2008 Cuog would.
-
Harbaugh was greased up for Pete Carroll for sure.
-
Harbaugh is pretty good at getting his teams to play with a chip on their shoulders even when they actually have superior talent.
-
The 2011 game against Nebraska in Lincoln sticks in my mind for some reason. Taylor Martinez played so damn bad but they greased right on through their whole damn season.
