Get to the point faster.

Another twist in that title game is Machurek had a huge elbow cyst that had to be bled out in the rocker room before the game. One of the team physicians said he never heard a man howl in pain like he did that day. Machurek got his arm mobility restored and the rest is history.

The Liberty Bowl had a unique opportunity to match up 2 Mississippi schools that had not played one another in years… Southern Miss fans would have walked across broken glass to have a shot at Ole Miss. I’m not sure why it’s controversial for the bowl to try & make it happen.

Vanderbilt is also a founding member. The SEC will stick to tradition for as long as possible and will manipulate what they can to maintain it (look at the 2024 conference schedules for certain rivalry games being unaffected). Vandy has remained despite all the realignment. Outside of football, Vanderbilt has a competitive baseball team and basketball team. It's not always about football.

Neblackska was always a lowbrow team under Tom "HIDE THE GUNS" Osborne.

You could have made this video 3 minutes long , by not repeating the same point over, and over!

Who did the Big Eight play back in that day? The OU Nebraska game decided the conference champ every year. Colorado won it maybe once a decade. Penn State offered a broader TV market, and the game (a 13-6 Tide win) was very well played and competitive. The fact that Nebraska lost to ASU shows that they were not that great that year. They barely beat Florida in the Sugar Bowl the season before.

In 1968 Wisconsin lost at Arizona State 55-7, a Milwaukee writer opened his article describing the game as a 'football Hiroshima'

The problem with pairing the SoCon with the Missouri Valley Conference for a bowl game is that the MVC was a hybrid conference made up of FBS and FCS teams. At the time they were looked at as a option for this game only NMST Wichita St and Tulsa were FBS which is why the conference did not have a bowl designation. Shortly after this took place NMST left to go independent and the conference then folded in 1985 with Wichita St dropping FB after 1986. That left Tulsa who won the last 5 MVC titles really the only team that could compete in the game. I also think the writing was on the wall for the SoCon in regards of division classification. Part of me thinks that the NCAA never wanted this bowl to happen simply because they did not think that the SoCon belonged in in 1A/FBS and used this as a reason the drop them down to FCS.

What ever happened to this QB? Porter?

My parents were burned in this accident! It's very surprising that some of the newspapers said the fans were only "slightly" burned? The lady seated behind us had the front of her hair burned off to her ears.

To be fair in re: to Eric Crouch's passing numbers, Crouch just wasn't a very good passer 😂 he had slammed into a wall in Boulder the year before running the option and his shoulder was hurt enough he had offseason surgery that year AND after the 2000 season. Oh wellz.

I disagree with this commentary.

I was there. Buddy of mine and I bought tickets through Wyoming. Hats, shirts, the whole deal. We went ONLY to pull against auburn. ROLL TIDE.

You pay to win the game?

Graber was one of the best coaches Rutgers ever had. The most delusional moment was the moment this video was made.

Roll Tide

I was 7 years old and I vividly remember not being able to watch the beginning of this game. Also, it was Woody's last game at Michigan

This Gator fan podcast is talking his way into the ass kicking to get his coach fired cause Miami will still have there's 🤔 something to think about huh 😂

Also run it back this year I dare you want be close and everyone here in this chat knows that enjoy your past cause ass kicking is the future for you haters Go Canes

This want even😂be a dicision this year GT is going to wish Miami will kneel at kick off y'all go to sleep about that game this will be the only thing to remember after the U dominates there schedule

The fiestable

As a Tennessee fan that was the most stoked I've been pretty much up until they recently finally beat bama again in that shootout i can't imagine if i missed it for that irish game. I'm so thankful those days are long gone nowadays you can pretty much find every game somewhere but back in the day if it wasn’t on one of the few stations it just wasn't either on at all or on ppv was $20-30

I’ve never understood this thing about needing timeouts specifically for tv. You have regular timeouts, between quarter breaks, injuries, halftime, in the case of NFL and College starting this year 2:00 Warning, pregame, postgame……..you have a shit ton of opportunities to put in advertisements, there should be zero reason you need to add to the runtime of the game specifically because you need ad space. It’s ridiculous. Here’s a though, not at the time but in the modern day, there’s this thing called picture in picture, shouldn’t be that hard to either put an ad in the corner during a play or two OR split the screen, keep the game going and show ads. There’s plenty of solutions to make sure the game doesn’t take all friggin day and you get your ads in.

That was a disrespectful deal🤦🏽‍♂️

I'm guessing you didn't do a ton of research on CNN before coming up with the title for this video.

Man, you cut off the huge run by Rudi Johnson for 70 yards (I believe) dragging people in the end zone. This came right after Wyoming had just scored to bring it within a TD.

0:30 .... Now listen, Son; USC curb-stomped Nebraska plenty enough .......... ya ain't gotta blame us for Oklahoma's failure too.

7:25 "If you go undefeated in the ACC, you're making the playoff." Wow, that did not age well. Florida State went undefeated in the ACC that year but DIDN'T make the playoff. They finished at #5 in the CFP.

Have you ever done a video on Texas vs.Arkansas 1969?

I've been watching college football for years.Growing up in the northeast,The Iron Bowl has been a big thing.

Better to tic off Boston NY than the entire country.

To be fair, Vanderbilt season tickets started at about $100 dollars that year and they included the Tennessee game . I had season tickets and I was at the game. They didn’t really price their fans out of the game as much as they milked Tennessee fans that bought single game tickets.

That's a serious financial loss, there. You could get an entire Yugo in 1988 for that money - with optional air conditioning, no less!

That's exactly why you should always watch the entire game as an AP voter

Black folks standing on bidness Baton Rouge & Southern been the leaders of black excellence

11:13 JG8: That's Like If ESPN Was Airing A Monday Night Football Game And They Decided To Cut Away From The Ending Of That To Show The Start Of A 30 For 30 Episode! Me: Or This Is Like If ABC Was Airing Game 7 Of The NBA Finals And Then They Decided To Cut Away The Ending To Show The Start Of ABC World News!

Considering everything that's happening in this day and age, is it safe to say that one can get away with blaming Israel for this? Because I think that's one of the very few times this statement rings true.

This was interesting. I have been a huge Nebraska fan since 1970. I was 12 when this happened, and I didn't hear about it.

This was the only bowl I ever knew Georgia Tech to be in until the 1990 Citrus Bowl. By the time I started paying attention in 1984, Tech’s glory days were long past and, as a kid, I really had very little awareness of them. I remember this game…it was just absolutely surreal that Tech was in a BOWL! Thanks for the memories!

In 2000, there was an odd bit of symmetry as the B1G had a 3-way tie too but it was easier to sort out. Purdue had beaten Michigan and Northwestern. All teams were 6-2. So no tiebreaker problems there.

Baseball always in pennant chase is more interesting. College is local. Southern Midwest US. NE US don't care about football. Split the signal regionally

Going independent for Vandy wouldn’t fix anything, they will not sacrifice academics requirements to recruit players for sports.

It’s unfortunate this was almost 20 years ago, with growth in popularity of FCS, they could have picked up a good game there in the modern era.

Stanford had the best asset of all: Schembechler as MI head coach. The man would always lose the big one, especially the Rose Bowl.

If you go undefeated in the ACC, you're going to make the playoffs-Jaguar, October 10th, 2023

"If you go undefeated in the ACC, you're making the playoff" Lol

might have to take back what you said at 7:26 lol

"If you go undefeated in the ACC, you're making the Playoff" I mean, you couldn't possibly have known just how terrible the committee is, but damn did that age poorly

I love how this led to Georgia Tech having enough wins to be bowl-eligible and getting their first bowl win since 2016, I believe? Cheers, Cristobal 😂
