re: LSU needs a win on Monday to avoid the strangest record in college football, 9-5

1999 Texas went 9-5.

1999 Texas lost their last three games:

aTm
Nebraska in the B12 title
Arkansas in the Cotton Bowl

And had Carl Reese as their DC. This is a very large oddity as well...I thought 1999 was still when all teams played 11 regular season games. Did they option to play a 12th? Hence, the Big 12 title was 13 and the bowl was 14?
