A riddle..

This version will be a bit of a scavenger hunt without a whole lot of rhyme or reason. Contained within each answer I'll ask for a letter...at the end you will take all the letters which will then be rearranged into an acronym that should be known to the board.

ETA: I tried to bold the underscores I want but it didn't do it, so instead I will put a triple underscore for the letter I want. Note that a triple underscore is just 1 letter, and only for formatting purposes and make it easier to see.

-In the '84 Cotton bowl against Texas we had a player recover a late punt. That player's name is an anagram for an unappealing vegetable, otherwise known as a: _ _ _ _ _ / ___ _ _
-The last 3 letters in the above answer can be rearranged to say who the free games are for, according to a mid/late 1960s psychedelic rock lyric from a band from Europe. That lyric is from a song called ___ _ _ / ___ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _
-The album that song comes from signaled the beginning of a new day so to speak. The first word of the title of that 6 word album is _ ___ _ _ _
-The penultimate letter of the above answer will also be contained in this answer and noted with an X (note: the letter is not actually an X, simply noting that it's the same letter as the 4th letter above). We're looking for a UGA QB in the 1990s that would not play a down for us, but end up finding success at another major program including winning a conference title and major bowl game. _ _ _ X / _ _ _ _
-The player above did not leave much of a mark on our program but is from here and has returned. He founded a restaurant in state named ___ _ _ _ _!

Take the 6 letters found in the answers above and then rearrange them to come up with our final answer:

_ _ _ _ _ _
