Would Arizona be the biggest win since WVU in '08?

Because they sucked and had a lame duck coach
Correction. Their coach wasn't very good. Had rich rod stayed we lose that game. Halk was bailed out.
They sucked less than we did. It was our first conference win and was supposed to be some sort of turning point. Lasted about a week. Which is more-or-less how I would see a win this year.
As others have pointed out, big wins are only big wins if they lead to bigger and better things.
Then it's been a really long time since we've had a big win.

This would be a bigger win than a lot of those others listed not because of the relative quality of who we would be beating but rather because of the depths we have fallen to. It would be a sign of hope that we are coming out of the pits and might have a reason to start looking up. This would mean that we could actually beat a real team that is capable of beating other teams.
Wvu wasn't a big win. It was a fun, unexpected win. Very different.

That is a compelling reason, I suppose. The only one I've seen that makes sense. A win on Saturday means that even with expected losses to UCLA and UW, there's still a reason to believe that the USC, Cal and UU games mean something. When's the last time that happened?
In that case though, it's the timing and the relative quality of the opponents vis-a-vis our future opponents that makes this a big game. I.e., the UA game is important because we have no chance at winning in LA or Seattle.

I would say no as the biggest win in the Embree error was Arizona. A win over Cal would look a lot better. Please don't bring up Utah, TY.
A win over a 1 and 6 (and getting worse) cal would look a lot better?
If we could at least demonstrate we have the right to be on the field with them, I'd be happy. Hell, I'd be happy with a loss if the game went to the end.
Take it from Bob and Dr. Marvin...just do the Baby Steps.
Would love to hear that argument.
This sounds like a Husker fan trying to poke the natives for attention.
