(just south of the rose bowl) 2 guys from USC stopped and ask for directions...i thought "holy crap, these guys are in trouble. smart enough to get into SC but not smart enough to find the rose bowl which is about 2 feet from the freeway exit...guess they never heard of mapquest.com" |

Vince Young showed that he is the man to draft ! I hope the Titans see that. |

That was one of the most incredible games I have ever seen and may go down as the greatest national championship game ever. The most amazing thing was |

Truely an incredible game. When Texas was down by 13 late in the 4th I thought there was no way. Texas hadn't come up with one single defensive stop in the 2nd half. But Vince was calm under pressure. Definately one for the memory bank. Whata game! |

I grew up in SoCal, moved to College Station (A&M) and went to high school there, went to college at OU, and live in Norman, OK. It's hard for me to believe that anyone hates UT more than I do. It just ain't possible. |

As great a game as it was, I cringed every time Kieth Jackson opened his mouth to say something. He was good in his day, but does any one else feel that his time has passed? I would hope that this was his last BC Bowl championship. It would be like letting Dennis Miller do the Super Bowl solo. |

That was funny. I cant believe you rooted for UT given your history. Does anybody remember what Vince Young did to U of M in the Rose Bowl last year? I'm a Michigan fan, & it was painful to watch when I realized Michigan could not stop Young in the 2nd half. I dont think he ever fell to the ground that whole game. I live a couple miles south of Austin, so there should be alot of happy co-workers at work tonight. |

Congratulations to the Texas Longhorns for their 800th victory. I don't think I've ever been happier from a sporting event than I was last night. |

The Texans can't take Young first overall. One outstanding game does not make for a season. Plus, he'd die behind that Offensive line like Carr does and Carr isn't the worst QB in the league. |

No one hates the Longhorns more than Arkansas fans, not A&M, not OU not Nebraska. Even though we are no longer in the same conference we still hate them worse than anyone. I was sitting in row 4 on the 50 yard line in Fayetteville when Texas beat us 15-14 for the Ntional Championship in 1969, the last time they had won the whole thing, maybe there is hope for us now. |

PC, your point is good. At the time of the 1930 game, college football was much more popular than pro, and the general public assumed that Notre Dame would win the game. It was something of a shocker than the Giants won. |

By my count at least 27 players on the 1995 Nebraska team made it to the NFL with 9 of them STILL playing today. Our QB Tommy Frazier would have played in the NFL if not for blood clots, and the backup QB was projected to be drafted in the first three rounds (Brook Berringer) was killed in a plane crash two days before the draft. |

I seem to recall that in the pre-Super Bowl years (1950s-60s) there was an annual game pitting the previous year's NFL champs against a "college all-star" team. Does anyone else remember this? Of course that's still not the same thing as a collegiate national champion team playing a pro team. |

Keith, you are correct. For a good number of years they had the NFL champs team play a college All-Star team. The college All-Stars was comprised of the cream of the crop. I don't have the records with me, but many of the games were competative. |

Vince Lombardi almost killed every single player on the Packers after they lost that game. He literally went beserk. It was the last time the Stars won and the game was televised. I remember watching the game in black and white (of course) one night at my grandparent's house on Lower Hay Lake near Brainard, Minnesota when I was 13 years old. Lee and Jay, is that near your old stomping ground? |
