Eleven years ago, a Washington Huskies team led by Steve Sarkisian faced off against the Baylor Bears in the Alamo Bowl in a 67-56 shootout won by the Bears that featured Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Robert Griffin III throwing for 295 yards and a touchdown while Baylor ran for 482 yards and eight touchdowns in massing 777 total yards of offense.
“We were just talking about it, yeah, and I remember Keith Price was our quarterback, and he had a fantastic game,” Sarkisian said on Wednesday. “I think he accounted for seven touchdowns, threw for over 400 yards; I mean, it was a fantastic performance, going against RG3, who was the Heisman Trophy winner at that time.
