This one, to me anyway, hurt worse than the Sugar Bowl loss. But it was the spring board to 6 straight bowl wins and 2 national titles.

I think its funny how they commented on how Ara wanted to get back into coaching after leaving Notre Dame, yet he never returned to the sidelines aside from coaching an all-star game and last springs blue-gold game
