None.  Which I also liked a lot better.  You know, other than certain conference champions being tied to a particular bowl.  Other than that, they just chose teams from everywhere.

The Sugar Bowl has taken the SEC champion for a long long time now, against some at large.  the Rose Bowl obviously favored the Big Ten/Pac matchup for a longer time.  The Orange more recently took the ACC champion, if available.  The Cotton back in the day would often get the SEC #2 team.

I should have said usually.  That year was "unusual" for obvious reasons.

Just as the Sugar took the SEC champ, the Cotton was bound to the SWC champ.  Then they could take any at-large team.  It sometimes an SEC team, although the B8, B10, and Notre Dame and Penn State made plenty of appearances over the years as well.

I like Ohio’s uniforms.   Clean, simple. No stupid font for the numbers.
