Washington Huskies

The University of Washington Huskies have a prosperous history and a strong future in college football. Since their indictment into the Pacific 10 Conference, the Huskies have won fifteen Pac-10 Championships and seven Rose Bowls, as well as four National Championships. As of 2008, the Washington Huskies’ overall rank is 653-398-50. I could go on and on about their awards, but a I would like to note that the Huskies have the bragging rights to two of the nation’s longest winning streaks and holds the DI-A unbeaten record at 63 consecutive games. Now that is impressive.

Since 1970, 16 of 19 starting quarterbacks have gone onto the NFL and the trend doesn’t look like its ending any time soon. The University of Washington is often referred to as one of the top Quarterback U’s because of this feat by the Huskies. A great victory for the Washington Huskies came in 2009, when they beat Washington State University 30-0 in the Apple Cup. Washington State has always been a big rival, and the Huskies were proud to completely sweep them under the rug.
