Colorado's NC will always be tainted because of that game.

If you think that was bad, look up how Kansas screwed them out of a national title in 1960.

Colorado is still "reaping" the benefits of the 5th Down karma even 2 decades later, with no sign of bottoming out anytime soon. Frick em.

The announcer had no idea...how that happened is beyond me.

First and only time I heard my Dad drop the F bomb was at that game.

Those officials never officiated another game, right?

Georgia Tech actually had a better record than Colorado that year. Georgia Tech was 11-0-1 and Colorado was 11-1-1. Since Colorado was already ranked #1 going into their bowl game, I was surprised that the Coaches Poll decided to jump Georgia Tech above them in the final poll.
