East Balcony season tickets then. That was an amazing season and our group of four (plus one pregnant) were still in the stands at least 15 minutes after the game. But, this was nothing like the victory over Michigan a couple weeks later. I don't know how people were sprawled out in our motel room the next morning watching the highlights before heading back to Chicagoland."It's the little things in sports that inspire the big things." Amen. The ensuing game-reversing goal-line stand proved it.
For me this is second only to Thomas Rooks' game-winning TD run v OSU in '83. Watching that final drive again: goose bumps. I listened to it on the radio that day. Couldn't believe my ears. Merely a month after I visited campus for the first time and fell in love with it.
