In addition to Washington, three other teams make claim to the 1960 National Championship, including: Mississippi, Minnesota[/b] and Iowa.

The 1961 Rose Bowl was the 47th Rose Bowl game, played on January 2, 1961, in Pasadena, California. The Washington Huskies defeated the top-ranked Minnesota Golden Gophers, 17–7[/b]. Washington quarterback Bob Schloredt returned from a mid-season injury was named the Player Of The Game for the second straight year.[2] As New Year's Day fell on a Sunday, the major bowl games were played on Monday.
This was the first season of the new agreement with the Athletic Association of Western Universities (AAWU) to send their champion. Its predecessor, the Pacific Coast Conference (PCC), had dissolved after the 1958 season. The Big Ten was no longer in a formal agreement with the Rose Bowl following the demise of the PCC:[3] Big Ten champion Minnesota received and accepted an "at-large" invitation.[/i]
Hope that helps

I am aware of all of the the above.
The AAWU consisted of five-teams, to wit: UCLA, USC, Stanford, California and Washington.
Unaware that the game vs. Minnesota was billed as a Natty . . .
The 1960 Washington national champs are laughing at this

So the only five programs that mattered back then.
Sounds like an improvement on the current dreck 12 to me.

At least we’re honest.
Imagine getting destroyed by trublue. Yeesh. Dark days on Montlake, indeed.
Remember: Win a Rose Bowl, then pop off.
How long has it been since Washington won a Rose Bowl?
