Question????

The Rose Bowl folks are very traditional. They'll try their best to get a Pac10 vs. Big10 matchup, IMO.

 

perhaps...but only 1 of the last 5 rose bowl games were pac10/big10 matchups (in red):

1/3/2002 Miami (FL) ACC 37 vs. Nebraska 14
1/1/2003 Oklahoma BIG12 34 vs. Washington State 14
1/1/2004 Southern California 28 vs. Michigan 14
1/1/2005 Texas BIG12 38 vs. Michigan 37
1/4/2006 Texas BIG12 41 vs. Southern California 38

not sure what the mitigating circumstances were surrounding who played each of those years.

 

See purple for reasons ^

 

And last year we were back to Pac/Big again with USC and Meatchicken.

 

Add USC beatdown of Michigan in '07 Rose Bowl. :thumb:

 

thanks! i wasn't making all those connections and couldn't understand what caused the pac10/big10 rose love affair to be so disrupted. that definitely explains it.

 

You so slow! Beat ya by a minute. :hihi:

Dang, where's that nany nany emoticon?

 

Not really, it got hung up; otherwise, my "Real time" would've left you in the dust.

 

I knew you'd fetch it for me. :rofl:
