    If I remember right, the point spread on that osu game was 41 points. I remembered it for years as 44 points but made comment one time about it at doogman and someone said 41 points.

    1. The point spread vs. OSU in 1985 was 37 points. At the time, it was the biggest upset in collegr history from a point spread perspective.

    2. I only remember being disappointed/mad with Coach James once in regards to clock management. I was down in the LA Coliseum in 1989 when were down 24-16 in the 4th quarter and watched the clock run 5:00... 4:00... 3:00... 2:00 and we had all our timeouts but wouldn't use them. It was like we threw in the towel.

    Note: Pure freshman Tommie Smith blocked a punt and recovered it for a touchdown in that game.

    Did he ever use the timeouts? Christ, Twitter and dawgman chat must have been going crazy

    That was the one I thought of too. James scoffed that they couldn't stop them all day. He was pissed

    Don James certainly had some rough losses but I don't recall many lost on clock management issues.

    Psst. UW didn't lose because of "clock management issues."

    True, they lost on a 47 yd FG kicked by the opposing team.

    When Derek said LA game in 1989, I was thinking of the one we won vs UCLA. I think Greg Lewis took charge at the end. The thing I remember about that game was watching Tom Glasgow's wrap up show on KIRO and seeing some dorky white dude freshman on the sideline getting all excited. I looked up his number and found out he was from Cheney and thought "what a clown. that guy will never play." Back when we played both LA school on the road in the same year.

    To Race's article, in 2010 I wanted Sark fired after the Nebraska game, and I wanted him fired NOW after the Stanford game, the single worst display of Husky football I had or have ever seen (I was not in Berkeley in 2003.) After we won out, Race made the point that in the middle of the season we wanted Sark to change and feed Polk and we might start winning, and after he did that and we did that, then we really should put the pitchforks away because he was winning. It was the loosing that was upsetting, not some personal vendetta against Sark. If he could win, we would like him; if not, we did not.
