Pony Express 1980 Team on NCAA 04

I agree... certainly hindsight is 20/20.

However, the polls dictated the champ back then...

Heading into Arkansas week, SMU was ranked #2, Pitt #3 and Penn State #4...

Penn State beat Pitt, we tied, both Penn State and Nebraska jumped us.

You can argue the merits of the National Title all you want, reality is, we didn't get the votes because of our slow finish.

If your not lead dog the view is the same. I still believe there was more talent on that team than any I have ever seen.

totally agree... I was simply explaining why we didn't get the votes despite the fact Penn State had a loss...
