Some UW Husky fans won’t follow them to Big 10

I have been a fan of University of Washington Husky football since 1968. I was a freshman in high school. I remember watching Bruce King and coach Jim Owens on a Husky football highlight show on Sunday nights on KOMO-TV. The Big 10 was always the opponent for the Pac-8, 10 and 12 in the Rose Bowl.

I will not be watching Big Ten sports moving forward. I will not be following the Dawgs as they leave the Pac-12. Sad times.
