Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

I'm researching 1980 UNC, and in during the broadcast of the 1980 Bluebonnet Bowl, they had the audience call one phone number to vote yes and another to vote no on if college football should go to a playoff.
.
Anyone remember something like that going back further?
.
**Also, we need to bring back punters with neck rolls!

I remember this.  ABC did this in their baseball coverage too.   Toll phone calls, what a world that was.

They were 1-900 numbers.....don't miss-dial !!!

Sweet 16 - First half of the bracket:
.
99 Florida St. vs 96 Florida
There's a lot I could say here, but I just want to share one stat that might surprise you: 
Opponent's completion percentage:  FSU defense:  71%......Florida defense:  45%
In a game that's going to have a lot of passing (as neither team let you run much), I think that might be an important stat.  The Gators averaged 43 points vs the 6 opponents ranked in the top 16 they played.  FSU averaged 38 vs the 5 teams they faced in the top 20.  In a game of Twelving, I think I have to go with the Visor.
96 Florida over 99 FSU
.
.
Half of the Elite Eight:
11 Alabama vs 97 Nebraska
74 Oklahoma vs 99 Florida St.

as far as twelving, both teams averaged 17 points given up.  FSU went wire to wire at number 1.  Undefeated 

96 Florida lost to FSU in 96.  Obviously they avenged that loss, but were lucky Texas upset the Huskers in the Big 12ving champ game.  Otherwise, no rematch

I think 99 FSU was better than 96 FSU - I'm going with Bowden

Sweet 16 - First half of the bracket:



18 Clemson vs 74 Oklahoma

The Sooners were the best ever at what they did.  But against their best opponents, they had close games.  The Tigers blew out all of their ranked foes.  They're so well-rounded.  Great QB, RB, WR, run D, pass D.  OU would be wise to play keep-away, but I don't think they could do it against Clemson's DL, couldn't keep those chains moving.  They'll score, sure - a few breakaways.  But this Tiger team is overwhelming, just ask Bama.
18 Clemson over 74 Oklahoma

Oklahoma was loaded with talent, evidenced by its eight All-Americans. OU's wishbone offense, triggered by running back Joe Washington, fullback Jim Littrell, and quarterback Steve Davis, averaged 73.9 rushing attempts per game, which still stands as an NCAA single-season record, as does its 21.4 rushing first downs per game.

Oklahoma also featured a tough defense led by senior All-American Rod Shoate, a swift and punishing linebacker, and a defensive front consisting of brothers Lee Roy and Dewey Selmon, and Jimbo Elrod.

Clemson would have no idea what hit them on both sides of the ball

78 Sooners were even better

74 OU seems to be in the Sweet 16 twice.  Once vs. 18 Clemson and also vs. 99 FSU.

I would pick them against either, even though the roll of the dice has them losing to 18 Clemson already.

Huh?
I'm listing the matchup first, then the blurb of my thoughts, then the pick last, in bold. 
Is it confusing?
I picked 74 OU to beat 06 Florida and then 72 USC.
