1996 Washington @ #20 Arizona State No Huddle

1996 Washington Huskies @ #20 Arizona State Sun Devils

[@churlish7851]

This was the season teams really embraced the press 4 3 defense. This led to the spread no huddle in a few years to offset this defense. When the sun devils shut Nebraska out this got every single defensive coordinator in the universes attention.

Derrick Rodgers the DE of Arizona St was asked by a football coach what position do you play. He said 2nd trumpet!! That coach got him onto the football field immediately. Taught him the game and the rest is history. This Arizona St team was seconds away from winning the national championship. They had many last second wins that season. Ironically got beat on a last second loss ranked #2. Good job by the Huskies to play with a team that good

Both these programs had some great teams back then. Still think they are two of the most underrated teams in the country. Especially the Huskies.

This is the only year that ASU hasn't sucked

@@bennyrobinson1935 they were solid in the 90’s. The Huskies are always underrated. I’m talking about second tier programs here.

Week 1 matchup decided the Pac-10 championship in 1996.

Yup. Even with ASU's shutout of Nebraska, Washington still would have gotten the Rose Bowl bid vs Ohio State had this game played out a bit differentlt.
