with this excellent article by Stewart Mandel. For those of you who don't remember, 1984 was the year the Mighty Cougars of Brigham Young University turned the college football world on it's head by winning the National Championship. A truly momentous and amazing accomplishment, unparalleled in the history of the game. How 'bout them Cougs!

I like how the bowl tried to get better teams for BYU to play and they all ran like scared girls (no offense, Babs), and then decried BYU's low strength of schedule.
Good times in college football. Switzer really showed his true colors.Comment

Thanks for the link. I have goose bumps."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."
