On Dec. 29, 2011, Baylor and Washington combined for 123 points, 1,397 yards of offense and 17 touchdowns inside the Alamodome, all bowl game regulation records. Star quarterback and 2011 Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III led the Bears to a 67-56 win over the Huskies in his final collegiate game.Sarkisian took his first head coaching job at Washington in 2009. The Huskies went 34-29 overall and 1-2 in bowl games during his five-year tenure.
Notably, the Longhorns downed Big 12 champion Kansas State on the road and routed Oklahoma 49-0 in the Red River Showdown. All four of Texas’ loses – to then-No. 1 Alabama, Texas Tech, No. 11 Oklahoma State and No. 4 TCU – came by one score.
