Belt context

Where this game sits in the lineage

Washington came in 21 days into reign #226, which began with a win over USC, with 2 defenses already behind it; this was its third defense. Washington went on to defend it 1 more time before Arizona took it on November 7, 1992, 35 days after the reign began.

For Pacific this was its first shot at the belt; it had never held the belt. It still hasn’t; this remains its only belt game.

This is the only time Pacific and Washington have met with the belt on the line.
