Every fan base has games they point to as being seminal classics that they will never forget. Auburn has the Kick Six in the 2013 Iron Bowl, Pete Carroll-era USC has the Bush Push, and the Washington Huskies of the 1990s have the “All I Saw Was Purple” game against USC. Tonight’s victory over No. 7 Stanford, giving Washington a 5-0 record for the first time since 1992, feels like another entry into the pantheon of such games.
It’s not merely that Washington won this game, it’s the way they did so: through pure, unadulterated, unforgiving domination.
