    Oklahoma

    Nebraska
    Michigan
    USC
    Ohio State
    Notre Dame
    Penn State
    Texas
    Arizona State
    Arkansas

    Hell every Rose Bowl in the 70's (my favorite game I guess because, "BIG TEN!") had either UMi or OSU and mostly USC from the PAC10 with a few others sprinkled in but not enough to recognize. Maybe UCLA.
    Which is why I’m so satisfied with Nebraska football since 2002 — it’s fun not seeing them relevant.

        I remember Georgia Tech being in there too. UCLA used to be in every Rose Bowl USC wasn't. Pitt had that one run.

        The NCAA champions shows just how top-heavy it was then. It was the EPL:

        1970 Nebraska
        1971 Nebraska
        1972 USC
        1973 Notre Dame
        1974 Oklahoma
        1975 Oklahoma
        1976 Pittsburgh
        1977 Notre Dame
        1978 Alabama
        1979 Alabama
        Cornell University
        National Champion 1967, 1970
        ECAC Champion 1967, 1968, 1969, 1970, 1973, 1980, 1986, 1996, 1997, 2003, 2005, 2010
        Ivy League Champion 1966, 1967, 1968, 1969, 1970, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1977, 1978, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1996, 1997, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2012, 2014, 2018, 2019, 2020

                From that link:

                No one involved in this equine digestive tract of an organization will ever grasp that he’s a f-cking chump. Not the players. Not the coaches. Not team-purchased media stooges like Larry Michael. Not Bruce Allen. Not the fans. And definitely not Dan Snyder.
                This!

                In the 16 interminable years I have spent in this malarial swamp I have never seen it put into words how specifically Redskins Nation is horrible. This is it! Other execrable fanbases are awful in their own special ways. Philly fans are literal swine. Sawx/Pats fans are bred in the bone losers, like their parents and all their ancestors -- the Australia of cities their blood is immutably tainted by failure.

                But Redskins Nation are chumps and they'll never know it. They're marks. They're suckers.

                  Ahh Kep. You're just a newcomer. Been down here since 1979 and under Jack Kent Cooke, it was fun. The minute Danny Boy won the team from the estate, it's been downhill and worthy of mounds of excrement from a well fed male ox.

                    Sure Jack was an ******* personally, but he let the team do their thing and he won. If Danny could do either it would be a massive improvement. I mean, his dickish antics and his squeezing money out of everything would be totally overlooked if we could get the team to 8-8 every year.

                        Pretty much, but with an even lower threshold for success. I mean, the Cowboys have to deal with Texas football expectations. The Redskins would be allowed a lot more leeway if they could pretend to be remotely competent. Step one would be to not need multiple QBs to get multiple leg surgeries in a single season.

                                Always the best one of the year, because it's Magary's team.

                                Welcome to Minnesota, where a dozen silently angry moms have to make two dozen silently angry phone calls just to arrange a hotdish potluck at the Protestant church.
