With the end of the Pac-12 now on the horizon after yesterday’s events, wanted to take a different approach. Shifting away from all the negative talk, blame, etc - let’s remember some good times of the Pac-8/10/12. For me, got the following:
In Pac-12 era, I have to say Washington State hosting College GameDay in 2018. After years of Ol’ Crimsom gracing the crowd shots at other sites, ESPN made its 1st trip to Pullman for a Top 25 clash between the Cougs and Oregon. Despite the broadcast kicking off before dawn local time, the Wazzu faithful showed up & showed out. The cherry on top was later that night, when the Cougs beat the Ducks & the sold-out crowd stormed the field to celebrate a win that propelled Wazzu to an 11-win season.
Overall, was Corvallis Craziness in the 2000s between Oregon State and USC. The 2004 fog game, the Beavers upsetting heavily favored Trojan teams in 2006 & 2008 that ultimately cost them BCS title game berths. Corvallis was a house of horrors for the Trojans in the 1st decade of the millennium, going 1-4.
Let’s reminisce - favorite Pac 12 memories.
