Go Blue!! We didn't have cable at that point so we listened to this one on the radio.

[@stevekov6740]

@@kylegoodreau2170 he was but as the color commentator. Frank Beckman did the play-by-play until 2013 or so. Occasionally Bo was in the booth too.

Good to see old Michigan classics but I'm still watching their National Championship Game! GO BLUE!

[@ralphmelvin1046]

I wish Michigan won all bowl games this way... GO BLUE 🏈

[@randydubin7118]

Michigan set a bowl game record for most total offensive yards in this game.

I remember watching this as a little kid
I wanna say it was broadcast on wxyz ABC detroit...?

[@collegefootballhistorian2078]

That could be. Not a lot of people had cable back then so often ESPN would license games to local network affilates.

Ole Miss was on the verge of going to the Fiesta Bowl but decided to decline if invited due Arizona not passing the MLK holiday. With the past history of race problems at Ole Miss they felt it would be better to pass if invited. 9-2 Ole Miss was invited to the Gator Bowl. Alabama,with their own problems with race in the past, had no problem accepting a bid to the Fiesta Bowl.
