FWAA & NFF - MacArthur Bowl Trophy

That's not awarded anymore, it permanently stays at the CFB HOF. And the FWAA stopped awarding the Grantland Rice trophy after the 2013 season.

Saw it at the ceremony at Sanford. After reading it looks like it’s “awarded” to the team, their name is incribed on it with all the others, and it’s now kept at the hall of fame.

Maybe because of the close proximity? Urban had to visit the CFB HOF to see it when Ohio St won a few years ago.

Unconfirmed. They didn’t have birth certificates back then.

Based on LSU’s history, I like his chances.

I find it unreal that O was older than Gene Stallings.


Larry Coker also. This list is a little surprising to me honestly

Well since Colorado got a 5th down against Mizzouri, they should have not been able to split the natty that year imo


Georgia Tech was tied by 7-4 North Carolina that year.
It was a bad year for college football.

If that kept Ed young, maybe getting his grind on with recruits will be Kelly's fountain of youth.
