Oregon won’t hire Sarkisian, they’re the only other fan base as dialed in as UW when it comes to sloppy Steve. Five straight wholly uncompetitive laughers, including the 2011 game honoring the 20th anni of 1991 in which he famously cried and begged Chip not to run the score up too badly.
Chip called off the dogs.
I remember the 2011 game being somewhat close...? Definitely the closest under sark. Although Oregon won rather easily in the end, say 34-17
I am slightly encouraged that you, a duck, bizarrely started to convince yourself of a falsity, and perhaps your athletic department I’m giving too much credit, but it was without question a wholly uncompetitive laugher. Complete with him literally crying on the sidelines and asking Chip not to humiliate him on the anniversary.
The only one of those I remember was in Seattle and a night game. LaMike was larunning through Washington like a hot knife through butter, and at some random point either late in the 3rd or damn early in the fourth, Chip most obviously took his foot off the gas. I remember everyone joking on the boards that he did it because he had a man-crush on dreamy Sark. I think Sark was at that tim building up to peak Joey Kitchen Sark banging waitresses two at a tim, so you you know he had his game going. Chip was apparently taken by his charm and boyish good looks.
Anyway, I remember thinking to myself, "run it up, because when they next have the chance they are going to do it to you irregardless."

Yeah that was 2011. I was literally on the sidelines for that game so I remember it extremely well. Sigh.
I was there too. UW scored to cut it to 7 midway through the 3rd q. So maybe my perspective was warped because previous kelly sark tilts were over at that stage of the game. But younger me def was nervous at that point
We? played at Autzen in 2009 and it was close at the half. I think Cal ended beating Oregon that year or coming very close and Doogs on Dawgman were saying Holt created the blueprint to beating Oregon.
2007 and 2009 were at Husky Stadium.
2011 also. Oregon won fairly easily, say 34-17. That was the closest game during the streak, iirc.
Closest game was the VA game in 2015
Ah you’re right. Id forgotten about that.
