That should say 2001 @UCLA, of course.Moving forward we didn't get another top 10 battle until the 97 Nebraska game listed above (#FireLambo)
After that:
98 @ Nebraska (L)
00 @ UCLA (L)
[/b]
We didn't get back in the top 10 until 2016 (FUCK!) which had 3 top 10 battles
Stanford (listed above - W)
Colorado (Pac12 cash game - W)
Bama (CFP - L)
2017 we? were top 10 over half the season but didn't play any other top 10 teams when we were.
18 - Auburn ("Neutral" - L)
tOSU (RB - L)
19-22 never made top 10 (until after the final game of 2022)
So going back to 1991 we have had 11 top 10 matchups
2 at home (1 and 1)
4 on the road (2 and 2)
5 Neutral (2 and 3)
Looking at this another way here's our top 10 battles by HC
James: 6-1
Lambo: 0-2
RN: 0-1
Gilby/Ty/Sark: n/a
Pete: 2-3
KdB: TBD
It's here that DJ's (ILTCHDJ) greatness truly stands out. Made even more impressive that only one of his 7 matchups was at Husky Stadium. Just an absolute nails big game coach.
