Just to show I'm not going WAY off thread here (and to get to relive the glory days of PSU one more time), here's an article on ESPN chronicling the first time that the Fiesta Bowl was for the National Championship (Jan 1987).
The two teams involved: Miami & Penn State
The winner: Well, PSU of course!
The article's a little long; but, man, talk about a David and Goliath story. PSU comes in as the number 2 team (vs. Miami's #1 ranking), gets outgained 445-162, and still wins 14-10. Goliath should have ran when David started picking up the stones.
This is why I love college football.
