    That was an odd tourney, I wouldn't have predicted that the Gators would beat the '96 Nebraska team. While I don't think Neb would have hung 50 or 60 on them like they did in 1995, I do think their defense was the antidote for the Fun'n Gun of Spurrier. Also ND '88 was beaten by Colorado '90, which is a complete joke there is no way that Colorado team could have hung with the 88 Irish who opened the season by beating #3 Michigan, then midseason beat #1 Miami and finished by beating #2 USC on the road.

    But it's a computer so who knows!! :) Congrats on the Win!!

    It hought the Gators would lose to the 95 Nebraska team also Terry, but I loved it that they didn't.

    The 96 Gator team was a better team than the 95 team even though they lost a regular season game to FSU, but we took out FSU big time in the Sugar Bowl.

    But real or not I enjoyed the outcome. :twisted: :twisted:
