[LegMDend]

Can anyone tell me who #86 was on MSU that season?

[dwalted]

best broadcast team NBC ever had. Enberg and Olsen gave us professionalism, enthusiasm and class. Thanx for posting

[gottaloveaz]

A Little House on the Prairie star broadcaster.

@subjoy1 Michigan State has won 4 bowl games since this one,

[TimOaks]

MSU fans, how many of your fans did you bring to Pasadena for the bowl game? I've heard one person say 55,000 but I would like to know for sure.

Lorenzo White runs like Walter Payton vs USC

[swalte6325]

@volvo4377 He carried that ball like a lunatic but he was the MAN

RIP Merlin Olsen!!! You are the example of how athletes should be on and off the field.

[petesteeler]

Dick Enberg and Merlin Olsen, they are a great team. They never did get the respect like Pat Summerall and John Madden. They should have what a great team

[armysaber]

ABC's coverage is no where close to NBC's. NBC rolled out the pro announcers, Gowdy and Enberg but now it just seems like another bowl game.

[crawford371]

@armysaber Keith jackson calling the rose bowl was not bad at all imo

but the best announcer for a bowl game was don criqui

[marquettefootball]

@crawford371 @armysaber Criqui = Corvette. Jackson = Ferrari. But Enberg = Lambourghini. Best ever at football.

I used to love watching Lorenzo White run, he was my favorite RB back in the 80's

[bisquik3006]

@theelectricman Too bad he had to play for the pass happy Oilers. Never really got to show his skills in the NFL.

This was the final Rose Bowl that would ever be covered by NBC.

What is overlooked here is Tony Mandarich faked a negative drug test to play in this game and Mandarich admits to this in his book that he has out. He admits he was taking steroids at the time of this game.

[Sparty2Night]

@vidEvWill Very true. At least he admitted to cheating and should not have played. Unlike that Woodson character for michigan who hired an agent BEFORE playing in the '97 Rose Bowl against WSU. At least Nebraska was rightfully awarded the National Championship that year & left left poor wolvie with ZERO NCs since the invention of the television. How long before U-M once again raises those Final Four banners they bought with the Fraud 5? UM athletic department..."Nothing to see here!!!"

Thanks for posting this video!

[jpbrazier]

Love the NBC opening theme music. Wish they would get some games again

[vidEvWill]

Notre Dame home games is all they do now, except for the one at the Alamodome on Halloween, that was a nuetral site game.
