Good one. SI had Ken Simonton and Joey Harrington on the cover, and ABC scheduled the Civil War for a 12:30 local kickoff so they could televise it nationally in the mid-afternoon slot.

It ended up being an ugly game too, which didn't do the Ducks any favors in their argument to make the BCS championship game.

With apologies to WCA, shout-out to 1998 UCLA football.

On a 20-game win streak, and minutes away from potentially playing in the first BCS championship game, they got upset by Miami in a rescheduled game from September.

UCLA went 4-7 in 1999.
