    This is the greatest game because USC was powerhouse at the time. Texas had the best player in college football Vince Young. 05 was a collision course of these two teams all year. No game had lived up to the hype like this game.

      Hard to say vince was “the best” when Reggie just won the heisman. Vince was incredible that year, but Reggie was the best player in college football for a couple years at that point.

    I remember there was sooo much discussion about Bush not being in on the 4th down, and it was always kind of silly to me. Lendale White was gashing Texas all night, while Bush only had two plays of note during the game, one of which was a turnover.

    I truly believe the 4&1 run that fell short heavily influenced Pete Carroll's decision a decade later to pass instead of handing the ball to Marshawn Lynch on the goal line.

    This game is only time I’ve ever cried when my team lost. I was a kid and seeing USC’s winning streak and all of the talk of them being the greatest team of all time just going up in smoke broke me. Still can’t believe Reggie tried that lateral.

    'Bush mysteriously on the sideline"
    Wasn't that Lendale White that ran the ball? Not exactly a downgrade, Bush was just more flashy and they fed him more. If anything the argument should be that putting White in and running it up the middle is too obvious. A formation with both White and Bush in it would make the defense unsure whether its a pass, run inside, or run outside.

      I have been a Michigan fan since 1980 and I was at this year's Rose Bowl, one of the most satisfying if not the most satisfying game I have seen in my life. However, it was a crappy game. Michigan should have put it away in the first half if it did not have all those turnovers and then Bama had us in the end with us almost giving it away with the fumble on the punt. It was a poorly played game unfortunately ...from both sides. The greatest bowl game every played in my opinion was the 31-30 1983 Orange Bowl between Miami and Nebraska.

      @@avaught20 eh. It was good. But the Boise State game had the David vs Goliath feel. I remember watching both. The fiesta bowl had a 4th and 28 conversion, a game tying TD with 0 seconds left. 2 trick plays and the running back literally proposed to the cheerleader gf on the game winning touchdown play. And the hook and ladder play too. It had literally everything. Everything. The other game was good , but I think you forget what that fiesta bowl had
