Eh, it's definitely memorable in the sense that it was a spectacular blunder by the officiating crew, but it wasn't a particularly memorable play. Memorable series, maybe...

Posted: **Tue Jul 21, 2009 6:02 am**

Good memorable plays...
Puntrooskie
Ward to Dunn to clinch win in the swamp in 1993
NUs missed FG in the Orange Bowl
Warrick bad ass catch vs VT in the BCS championship game
Miami Muff in 2005 killed the FG Curse....I hope

What memorable plays are we known for?
Wide Right 4 times to the canes
Wide Left to the canes
1987 missed two point conversion to the canes....Only loss of the season

I don't think it was a legit catch. It certainly is one of the most memorable plays for me, though...

Don't think? So your sayin' a guy just might be able to put his first foot after possession out of bounds and still be possibly a catch?

Only if you have a HOMETOWN offical doing your games. As I recall it was the same guy that conveniently missed the trapped ball in the end zone on the next play and f*cked Alabama a week or so late in the back of the endzone.

I also believe he wasn't allowed to do anymore games (NCAA) after those incidents.

That cockstroker cost us a MNC that day!

Ya I'm still pissed! I've heard Blacklegde say it was out of bounds.

Posted: **Tue Jul 21, 2009 8:21 pm**

I think I'd still be pissed too. Like I said...they were making up for the call on the Gill fumble on the previous drive, imo.

When KU blew the '69 Orange Bowl by stopping undefeated Penn State on a game-deciding two-point conversion but were correctly flagged for 12 men on the field. PSU got another chance and won the game.

Either that, or something Gale Sayers did.

One thing stands out to me in watching some of these clips, some TV guys are absolutely horrible.

Take the VY TD run that Harv posted. First you hear Keith Jackson with the call and then you get Craig Way's call. Keith is brutal. Did he score Keith? From the TV picture you can't tell. Are the celebrating because he got the first down and is out at the 1 with 17 seconds left?

Thankfully Keith kept himself to the West Coast late in his career. Granted Keith was prolly sad and Craig was beside himself, but Keith is just brutal.

Western Michigan is not beating Michigan. An awesome trip to a meaningless bowl game for a Big-10 team is not on the line here, so I don't see how one of the most pathetic programs in the history of college football is going to hang with an improved Michigan team.

So where does that rank Iowa, aka WMU's bitch?

Well, clearly Western Michigan has a better program than Iowa because of that awesome win you had against our 3-9 2000 team and then a team that sucked just as bad in 2007. Congrats dude, as college football only existed in 2000 and 2007.

Congrats on being a perennial MAC bottom feeder. We New Years Day Bowl regulars are very jealous.

It may not mean what it used to but it's just as difficult to achieve. Besides, if it's so simple to make a New Years Day bowl, then what's that say about Western Michigan???

no. c'mon, the Gator, Cap One, and Outback are nice second tier bowls for teams that have 7-9 wins and not equal replacements ("just as difficult") for winning the SWC, Big 8, SEC, Pac 8/10, and Big 10 in the old format....or the non conference tie-in opponents (say Notre Dame in the Cotton Bowl, or Miami in the Fiesta or Ornage) which are teams in the 10-11 win range and very much alive in possible NC hopes. no one is going to win the NC out of the Outback Bowl.

it's not just as difficult to go 8-4 as it is to win a major conference.

Posted: **Tue Jul 28, 2009 6:23 am**

jon's technically right about playing on new year's day: there are only five or so games actually played on the 1st. prestige is a whole different issue.

i'm afraid i don't get this point. the constancy of the number of games may be the same. i can have 5 pieces of paper money in my pocket. they can all be 20$ bills or they can be 100$'s. either way, i have 5 bills. winning a major conference 20 years ago is not, to me, comparable to going 8-4 and playing another team that's 8-4 in the BCS framework.

the quantity of the the games may be the same on NYD, but the quality isn't....nor is the success required to get there.

Posted: **Tue Jul 28, 2009 3:55 pm**

First off, it's rare for a 7 win team to make it to a New Year's Day bowl anymore with the 12 game schedules.

But here's our January Bowls........

5 BCS
Outback, CapOne, Gator, Cotton

Correct me if I'm wrong, but except for the addition of 1 BCS game, those 8 games used to be New Year's Bowls back before the BCS, right?

We've been to a January Bowl 5 of the last 7 years. 4 of those years we finished in the Top 20, 3 in the Top 10. The other year.......well, okay we didn't really deserve to go but our fans got us there (sup M Club?). But still, it's not like we're talking about a bunch of lousy teams.

And we are 3-1 vs the SEC in those January Bowls.

that's basically what i was saying about jon being technically right about playing specifically on nyd. the whole jan 1 prestige thing comes from back in the day when most bowl games were on the 1st and only a few played beforehand. i believe you used "relic" in reference to this. now that there are 102 bowl games, the more prestigious of them have been moved to february, for all intents and purposes, while only a handful of marginal games are still played on jan 1. so, again, jon's technically right that it's difficult to land a 1.1 game considering only five of 82 games are played that day.

eh, what's this "'sup mclub" about? is this about some year you went to a slightly less middling bowl game than us in florida because of your fans and also the fact we've been osu's maid of honor for the last 20 years and keep showing up to the capone bowl thing?

the two Froz has are good, but i'd include these (for the Switzer generation), the Ohio State game is a big fave of people my pops age (though, with all respect, OU wins that game by multiple scores if Thomas Lott and Billy Sims don't get hurt. OU is playing the 3rd team QB (Dean Blevins, moron) at the end--also notable is in a longer youtube clip, Switzer is chain-smoking on the sidelines: the Ohio State players look like they've been shot after the kick). i remember watching this game at age 5 and afterwards people driving around the neighborhoods where i lived in Norman honking their horns and throwing beer cans out in the street.

this is also, due to a scheduling anomaly, the first of two consecutive W's in Lincoln in 86 and 87. they play two years in a row at NU.

the Jackson catch epitomized Switzer's ability to win in Lincoln...a lot of times when NU was clearly the better team (76, 84). OU is down 17-7 with about 5 minutes left. they score to tie, and my dad who is at the game (he used to go pheasant hunting with some buddies in NE the week of that game every other year)....is yelling to go for two. and one of the NU guys sitting next to him says: "naw, Switzer will kick the PAT because he knows he'll get the ball back...and you fuckers will do it to us again". which is exactly what happened.

the so-called Game of the Century II: 1987, OU vs. NU....#1 and 2. OU "3 and outed" NU something like 10 straight possessions in the game.

this was one my faves as a kid:

#80, that really eats his guy's lunch...pushing the play into Hall is the late Ricky Bryan. he's a FR here, but future 2 time consensus All-American from Coweta, USA.

this 1980 team is the one that Elway beat in Norman in the rain, lose to Texas and bounce back to beat #6 UNC (with LT, and UNC talking a lot of shit) in Norman 41-7 and then beat FSU in the 18-17 Orange Bowl comeback. beat 3 top 10 teams in their last 6 games to finish #3. i'd say, for me, the TD throw to Steve Rhodes (one of the most clutch Sooners of all-time) and 2 point convo to Valora are among my "most memorable" plays. FSU had really played OU off their heels up to that point.

Posted: **Wed Jul 29, 2009 8:37 am**

i'm actually wrong here, and it didn't seem right when i was posting it, but this the 84 OU team and OU-NU. when Bryan is a senior. Nebraska is undefeated and #1.

this team could have saved the world the BYU MNC in the Holiday Bowl (against 6-5 Michigan) but screwed the pooch against Don James and UW in the Orange Bowl.

he also gets the back of Smith's shoulder pad....Jeff Smith was a real player.

this is the year of the fake tie to Texas and, somehow, and i don't remember this game at all (will have to ask the pops)....we lose in Lawrence, 28-11. Kansas has really pissed in our punch a few times. this is, according to Soonerstats.com, a 2-5 KU team.

That was Troy Aikman's freshman debut, IIRC. He was abysmal - he had three INTs and only two completions. Plus i think OU's punter botched a snap standing in his own end zone. Just an all-around weird game.
