Top 5 Biggest Husky Loss Abominations in my Lifetime

Rick lost to Air Force

If this team isn’t winning 6 games then it’s not really an abomination. it’s a close loss in a game they should have won to another meh team.
 
this loss isn’t even in the top 20. Anyone who thought this team was good is retarded.
Both losses in 2022 were worse than this.
 
This game doesn't even come close to Montana. You had a coach that made the worst OC hire in the history the program, refused to recruit and then answered after the game that he wasn't shocked that he lost to Montana as a top 25 team that many were picking to win the North including Phil Steele.
This was just one of the weirdest of the "frustrating" games in a long time. Atmosphere played into it too. Didn't feel like an apple cup.
ASU in 2022 was easily a worse historical loss. We lost to a fucking high school interim coach and a 1 conference win team. And a walk-on that was only in the game because Asa targeted their starter.
This year, the teams that turned over their coaching staffs are struggling compared to the ones that didn't. Except for Bama and DeBoer of course.
 
One of my favorites was ASU when we had noodle arm Cyler miles throwing in 75 mph gusts instead of running Shaq wild. Good times on that bit of McCoy.... I mean retardation.
 
The point spread was only -4.5 so it seems pretty dramatic to put it in the worst losses in decades category. Don’t worry there’s big ten money now so this game will be a formality once the school/AD puts that money towards players.
 
unrecognizable players under unrecognizable coaches in an unrecognizable setting.

This hardly resonates.

16 penalties and goal line option to short side of the field with a QB not suited to that against Cuog is an abomination

To that I agree, the performance was an abomination. The loss itself though wasn’t.

Which on field performance was worse all things considered, this or Michigan in January?
 
2022 Montana
2022 ASU
2008 Apple Cup
2006 Stanford
2012 ASU
Are some special losses that come to mind. Also you guys apparently lost 10-7 at home to Hawaii back in the 1970s
This loss is bad but it ain’t in that group.
 
Maybe this is just the apathy towards CFB in general, but I don't think this would make my top 20. Losing to Coug in 1988 and missing a bowl pissed off a young Bill way more. Getting humiliated in the snow in '92 was worse, too. Montana 2021 was the worst loss in program history. 2017 Scum Devil sucked more than this.

It was a bad game. I only watched about 40 plays, if that. Fish is still a good coach. Calm down.
 
This is a run of the mill, shitty loss. But it doesn’t even crack my top 25 since I started following the team in 1990.

If DeBoer 4th down trickery failed last year it would have made my top 5 rather easily.

Football is a funny thing like that.

Cuog was super drunk after the game, even going out of their way to honk and scream at cars with purple license plates, but this was just a non conference loss to us?.
If this game was the difference between going to a shit bowl or not I'd rather skip the bowl.
 
Looking back it’s kind of shocking how bad the 2021 season was.

loss to Montana
Swept by NW schools including BTFO in the Apple Cup that ended the Sam Huard hope train.
DeBoer was just that good of a coach and Penix that good of a QB to have them where they were 1 year later.
