9-4. The year everything changed. First outright Pac-10 title in program history. Kenny Wheaton's 97-yard interception return against Washington. 'The Pick.' Jerry Allen losing his mind on the radio. Rich Brooks' last season before leaving for the NFL. Rose Bowl loss to Penn State 38-20, but that didn't matter. Modern Oregon football starts right here.
