If White and Pettway are truly healthy I like our chances. If not then could get ugly.

All in all though pretty pumped for this matchup. Time to get some 12 year revenge

Gus got a big bonus. Time for a new BMW.

For those of you too young (or too old) to remember: that was the Sugar Bowl following Sullivan's SR season. We got the invite after waxing previously undefeated UGA and Sully getting the Heisman (they awarded it just prior to the final game in those years). Nebraska was #1, OU #2, Bama #3 and AU #5 in the AP, all four teams unbeaten. #4 Michigan had just beaten tOSU to secure the Rose Bowl bid, and the Orange and Sugar looked to get a potential NC match up depending on the outcome of the IB and the Huskers-Sooners rivalry game on Thanksgiving Day - the hype for that game was phenomenal, and it lived up to expectations. Unfortunately for us,the IB didn't.

So the Orange ended up being the NC game (won easily by Nebraska) and the Sugar a consolation of sorts. The Sooners dominated, leading all the way.

And I've hated those bastards ever since. Revenge!!!!
