ESPN just posted a flashback including a lot of the media coverage preceding the game -- didnt realize gameday was there. Don't think im alone but this is the game that made me a fan as a kid, interesting to see the context sourrounding it.

McNown had a MONSTER game. But he lost.

I feel like kids these days get Uber Eats whenever they want…when I was growing up restaurant food was a rare treat. At halftime my dad said if we won we were getting pizza. It was a glorious feast indeed.

As a lifelong um fan, that legitimately felt like the turning of the tide. I don’t remember much of the ‘99 season, but 2000 obviously was what is was and then I started UM in ‘01 at the crest of the wave. What an amazing build.

Wish I could forget 99, Penn State loss still haunts me

Our pass defense left so many UCLA receivers wide open, I thought that would never happen again, then came last year. Hopefully, the follow up will also lead to a championship.
