Who cares?!! ;~)) UW won the Rose Bowl!!! Hehehehehehe!

I was pulling for UW as well. I probably would have anyway (any Pac-10 win makes the whole Pac-10 look better), but it was a must since I'm married to a UW alumni;-)

Actually, I am glad that OSU won its bowl but I wouldn't say it was awesome, just okay!

On the contrary, it was truly AWESOME. In fact, it likely would have been a much more lopsided score if they'd have truly wanted it to be. First, they gave away 174 yards in extremely stupid penalties (well, most of them were stupid anyway). A couple of those penalties enabled ND's first 3 points. Second, they had the scrubs in the whole 4th quarter (which allowed ND's one and only touchdown).

It was as one-sided a game as I've seen in quite a while. Just look at the stats, they tell the whole story:



                     Notre Dame   Oregon St
First downs                  18          20
Rushed-yards              37-17      39-127
Passing yards               138         319
Sacked-yards lost          5-42        3-15
Return yards               (-1)         137
Passes                  13-33-2     17-25-0
Punts                    6-41.5      3-39.0
Fumbles-lost                2-1         3-1
Penalties-yards            7-42      18-174
Time of possession        30:13       29:47


I'd bet most of ND's first downs were 'unearned' (i.e. penalty based).

Sorry, just being an A-hole...congrats, I did not see the game but I heard it was a good one. As for OSU's losing seasons, I bet no one's counting now.....and all is forgiven. ;~))

Losing what? I don't remember no stinking losing seasons!

:^)
