quote:
This was the last Rose Bowl game played with "at large" teams from outside the Pac-8/Big 10 conferences. These two elite conferences openly admitted restricting the Rose Bowl, because they were tired of getting beaten by teams playing "hillbilly ball". The same reason they cited for not inviting them pre-1920.
In other words, they never took the South seriously, and then once they were forced to, they got tired of Alabama and Tennessee dusting that arse off every year in the "Granddaddy of Them All."
ETA: Just like now, actually. God, but people are sick of the SEC.
