HUSKIES

Well so much for putting USC behind them.

According to Bob Condotta’s Seattle Times story, reporters quizzed coach Tyrone Willingham for about 45 minutes about the ending of Saturday game in Los Angeles.

And we know the fans haven’t gotten over it. They think there was a conspiracy or something, according to Dave Boling’s News Tribune column. It’s also the subject of John Sleeper’s column in the Herald.

But the UW players and coaches know they can’t dwell on the past anymore. They have to get ready for Oregon State, which comes into Husky Stadium this Saturday (3:30 p.m.; FSN).

Leave it to Jim Moore to be the first Seattle-area writer to bring up the 1998 Rose Bowl when examining the refereeing in the UW-SC game.
