Ah yes, I remember it well...I was there!!, It was actually their whole team. The great fatigues game. But actually the Penn State Defense must have been upset by it...they intercepted the great "hurricane" Heisman Vinny 5 times and won the national championship sticking a fork into the great Miami mystique! That was the only one of 5 undefeated Paterno teams thought proper enough by pollsters to actually be given a national title.
AS far as Saban goes, he needs to be more proper in his tragedy comparisons. He coaches the Crimson "Tide", so a more apt tragedy comparison for his loss to La Monroe would be the Indian Ocean earthquake/tsunami in the Indian Ocean in December of 2004 which was kind of a "tidal" type scenario in Indonesia etc. He just needs to be a little quicker on the draw is all.
