The 1996 team would be nice this year as well. Lost conf champ game in Las Vegas to BYU (who went on to win Cotton Bowl, finish 6th in NCAA) mainly because Tiller (in his final UW game) took intentional safety (backed up to our goalline with 4th and long and good BYU return guy) up by 5 with a couple minutes to go in the game. Hindsight is 20-20, but I was yelling as soon as it happened. If we were up by 6 if would have been a great choice, but our D gave up yards not TDs that year. The intentional safety made it easier for BYU to tie the game, and eventually win in OT. I am a Tiller fan but hated that call. I believe we lost 2 games that year by a total of 3 pts in regulation and didn't go to a bowl game. Still bitter about that.
