That is impressive and if OU played in the sec that would be relevant to the thread. :)

Actually, FSU, they played the Ducks the year after beating Auburn at the Rose Bowl.

yes you are correct, two Rose Bowls(one offical and then the bcsncg later) during part of the bcs, and the playoff game counts as the Rose Bowl and is on Jan 1. I stand corrected.

I wish GT was more relevant in football. They deserve as much notoriety as UGA seems to get. GT has just as much of a rich history.

That's a bit pathetic on the Bear's part if true...
