What people forget about the 87 OSU game was that the field was watered that morning by mistake. Harvey and Sammy slipped and fell untouched on certain TD runs. We were so much better than them. The Bama loss was simple. Hodson was hurt and didn't come in until too late. I believe we could have hung with Miami, FSU etc that year.....at full strength.

OSU was all coaching. Hodson threw a pic on the 2 yard line with under 2 minutes to play tied at 13. Arnsparger would've played for the certain 3 and win. I always wondered how that team would have been with Bill Arnsparger or even Steve Spurrier as coach instead of Mike Archer. If you want a common opponent, South carolina only lost to the "U" 20-16 that year. LSU beat SC 30-13 in the Gator Bowl without Harvey Williams and it wasn't that close
