Maybe one of the best college teams ever assembled. Everyone had USC kicking Texas butt last year too, except Vince Young….

Of course in the post-game interview Peterson claimed it was his own reserve QB's who insisted that he call that catch-lateral play on 4th and 18. Michigan got their ass kicked though, badly, as did my own alma mater UCLA. But every other game was a contest, close down to the final plays, and presented college football in the most favorable light. How about that WV/GT game??

I give Boise State major praise to have the guts to try all the plays they did, one after the other. The Boise State/Oklahoma game was probably the most amazing finish I have ever seen.
