As for Notre Dame, well, they finished 6-4-1 and didn't even receive a bowl invite. The definite highlight of this season, tho, was upsetting a overrated, Dan Marino-led #1 Pitt team at Pitt Stadium, 31-16, in one of the most stunning upsets in college football history, even if Pitt was overrated, considering how up-and-down the Irish's play was that year, which reared its ugly head after the Pitt win, when they lost their last three games to Penn State, Air Force, and Southern Cal.
Michigan went on to finish 8-4 that season and won the Big Ten despite losing 24-14 to Ohio State (Michigan got the Rose Bowl bid because they played one more conference game than the Buckeyes; OSU went 7-1, while UM finished 8-1 in Big Ten play). Unfortunately, they lost to UCLA for the second time that season, (The Bruins also beat them, 31-27 during the regular season in one of the biggest comebacks in Michigan Stadium history) 24-14.
I was at this game and vividly recall the Michigan touchdown after the ricochet. I tell people about this and they doubt me. Thanx for posting. One other detail.... they actually had too much lighting for this game. You can see that the players cast shadows in multiple directions. it was annoying,,, but I think it helps with this video.
"Look what I found...Touchdown!"
Gotta love Keith Jackson.

@TheEXTREMESKATING What do you mean? That was a great hit on Smith by Ricks.

@TheEXTREMESKATING I thought so also... since they were on the same team.

I wish the players still came out onto the field with the students greeting them like that. FUCK YOU, NCAA, FOR RUINING THAT!!!
