Coincidentally, that was the last time a team from the SEC played in the Rose Bowl until Georgia on January 1, 2018. Alabama defeated Southern Cal that day by a score of 34-14 to finish off a perfect 10-0 season. However, they finished #2 in the AP that year behind Army.

Alabama was not allowed to be invited to the Rose Bowl for many years because the university would not accept black students or black players.

That’s why the Rose Bowl became a Pac-10 vs. Big Ten game because those were the only two major football conferences which allowed black players to be on their roster.

Bama beat Texas in the BCS National Championship Game at the Rose Bowl after the 09 season.

Bama beat Notre Dame in the Rose Bowl played in Dallas because of COVID after the 2020 season.
