I have to note for USC that NU shows up in a really crowded spot for them .. @ILL, MICH, BYE, @ND, BYE, @NEB, .. NU .. IOWA, @OREG, UCLA .. They have a couple bye weeks and casual observer says NU looks like a free lunch in the middle of some HEAVY action. Welp, Trojans may very well be cookin up n eatin cat week 11 but there ain't no free lunch on the menu .. Cats will be off their a bye w Mich on deck a seemingly not bad ATS spot for them potentially with USC so busy with so many MAJOR teams. But way wayyy more to this spot than meets the eye.
To know this spot is to know the story of how BRIDGE and CFB met .. it starts in 1995 quarter mile or so from Dyche Stadium and the perennial MAJOR dog turd Wildcats flipping the switch into the most improbable Cinderella team of destiny in history and maybe still to this day.. Coach Barnett with Darnell Autry, Steve Schnur, Brian Musso, D'wayne Bates, FITZ was the heart n soul and the FOUNDATION recruited 4 years ago when Barnett showed up in '92. NU's identity had been of notorious LONG losing streaks, 24 yrs of losing seasons, hadn't won their conf since 1936 and no rosebowl since 1949. Biggest losers in CFB. All changed in 1995 when a new identity formed under most unfortunate circumstances with teammate Marcell Price killed a week before training camp, accidental shooting. Many players made the trip to attend his funeral in Nashville and BIG SIX patches memorialized Price on the jersey that year and was the tie to bind the Purple Pride IDENTITY .. Cats went on the most improbable run 10-1 Reg SSN, 8-0 B10 CHAMPS taking down ranked teams ND, Michigan, Wisco and Penn State along the way.. Early loss to a nobody Miami OH came after the big week 1 win vs ND in south bend. And that actually was key because from then on they left no doubt and fell for no down spot.. "Purple Fever" took over all of Chicagoland the little flags on cars everywhere, hanging on doorsteps on every block and sellout crowds. Cats clinched first Rose Bowl in 47 years when Tim Biakabituka rattled off 313 yds rushing to beat OSU in THE GAME.. greatest year in NU history BY FAR ....
1/1/96 Rose Bowl I remember it like Rose remembers the Titanic.. the flowers had just been picked, fresh, vibrant on the parade floats .. the captains march to mid field for the special coin toss helmets gleaned even on a fairly smaller old TV's set in an airport bar. A little luck with a plane delay was a welcome announcement .. Cats were stunned early down 24-7 in Q2 before Autry led the guttiest of comebacks taking one in for the lead early in Q4 up 32-31.. edge of my seat whole time .. but it wasn't meant to be .. #1 overall NFL draft pick Keyshawn Johnson's 216 yards stole the show while Captain Fitz looked on, injured vs Iowa late in the reg ssn .. It was the purest display of CFB Magic the kind money grubbin butt munching executives have steadily been sucking out of the game .. It's a rematch 30 years in the making and I got this spot CIRCLED, STARRED, TARGETED AND MARKED FOR REDRUM REVENGE OFF A BYE WEEK INTO LA, USC BUSY WITH THE BIG BOYS .. Won't be lost on anyone at NU what "USC WEEK" means for CAT NATION this year so .... "TRUST ME .. THEY'RE SHOWIN UP" .. - BRIDGE
