Even 2 decades later, the 1997 Apple Cup still resonates

I was there!

I remember being so annoyed by how many coug fans were there... I think it was close to a 50/50 split... great amotsphere... fitting end to one of the most disappointing seasons of all time...

I lost it in the 2nd quarter after the huskies returned an int for a td to cut the coug lead... Yelling fuck you cougs and flipping off all of their fans around us... I wish I still cared that much...
 
I was there, man! Yeah, the atmosphere was great especially considering it was raining if I remember correctly. I remember the comeback, the place was rocking, so much shittalking... then Brock rolls back and throws a rainbow up into double coverage and Coug fans are dancing on the field. That loss hurt, now, it's expected and normal
 
Actually that was probably the best one I went to. Edit. I was thinking prior year

The best atmosphere would have been the 1981 Apple Cup. Winner went to the Rose Bowl.
 
At least the Christmas Dawgs got healthy enough to plunger Saban’s Mich State team later.

Amirite?!?
 

KOMO ABC broadcast of the 1997 Apple Cup between the Washington State Cougars and the Washington Huskies at Husky Stadium, Seattle, WA...
