  • @rustyshadow7 what about in 93 when Penn State went undefeated won the Rose Bowl and they gave it to Nebraska. SMU wasn't undefeated the tied Arkansas that year.

  • Couldn't believe we lost this game. Capped off a very dissappointing year. This game has stayed in my memory because within a few years Pitt had sank well below a national powerhouse and SMU got the death Penality. Nearly 30 years later they will meet again. Being a diehart Pittt fan I'm going to attend being that I live a couple hours away.

  • Looks like the rematch happens in January! lol

  • Man, Pitt was loaded that year at least 5 future pro bowlers (Marino, Covert,Fralic, Lewis, Doleman,) as starters on this team, and a couple more who made it too I think (Maas and Sweeney) but they had a new head coach and no running game.

  • @paulsonj72

    Well stated. Thanks my man

  • @cbaldwinjr

    SMU got the "death penalty" not becuase of the violations reported in the TV report but because under NCAA rules they were deemed to be a repeat violator as they were already on NCAA probation at that time with some of the strictest penalties ever put in place. But because they board at SMU continued to make payments to players that were already promised they got nailed.

    (P.S.) The chair of the SMU Board was Bill Clements who in November of 1986 was elected governor of Texas

  • @rustyshadow7 Yeah, the lifetime achievement award for Joe Paterno. Give me a break.

  • @vitoduval and? the library has nothing to do w/ the football team.

  • @ClipCoug SMU vs Miami would have been a great game Jim Kelly was the QB...

  • @Luke7304 geez you're right! and it wasn't even close 42 -21 All the more reason why SMU should have been named the champs. but you know joe pee I mean joe pa had to get the sympathy votes.
