7 DAYS ‘TIL CHRISTMAS

The 2003-04 Washington Huskies Men’s Basketball team pulled off a 75-62 upset victory over the #1 Stanford Cardinal who came into the matchup with an unbeaten 26-0 record.

Defensively, the unranked Huskies dominated the game and had their way with the Cardinal. Washington’s quick and athletic defense forced Stanford into 18 turnovers.

Stanford was trying to become the first Pac-10 team to finish a perfect conference season. No team has completed an undefeated season since Indiana in 1976.

Nate Robinson and Mike Jensen each added 13 points for the Huskies, and Brandon Roy and Will Conroy had 12 apiece.

After the game, the record crowd of 10,086 at Bank of America Arena stormed the floor and celebrated the victory with the players and coaches.

“I said repeatedly that one day I saw this coming! I didn’t know it would happen this year,” Washington head coach Lorenzo Romar said in just his second season on the job.
