No excitement at all. "Vince Young..........scores"

"Mac Brown is gonna tie Vince Young to the goal post after this game"

Fouts would've been shame-punished for that one if he said it today.

Vince Young was a terrible passer.


Well, to be fair he was 30-40 in this game and led the FBS in passing efficiency that year.

But the game has certainly changed since then

Does 2019 LSU beat these teams? Upvote for yes and downvote for no. I'm going to upvote this post.


Of course they would, but ill go one further. LSU is a much better team in their time, than these two teams are in their time.

Bet USC wishes they didn't burn their last timeout on the freaking 2 point conversion.

I sometimes think a screen play to Bush there instead of just being an outlet would of put them in fg position on that play.

Pete Carroll should be shamed for that as awful clock management to end this game.

He was a great college player, just not a good passer. Texas was a great team.

Wrong. But good on you for admitting you're gay and thinking the color of a jersey makes a game better

Keith was a legend, but he was blatantly rooting for USC in this game. He had become a Pac10 homer in his later career when he was only doing west coast games.

But he had already lost me when he said during the 04 Rose Bowl, “Sunday night, LSU and Oklahoma will play for the computer championship.” frick that noise.

Keith was a Wazzu alum.

He was always a WC guy.

Why this was shocking to fans of the 2006 Rose Bowl is beyond me.

Just like it's entirely blatant that Gary is a shameless SEC honk and worse an Alabama shill.

At least Keith was a great announcer and not just a shameless bought pompom promoter like a WWE announcer like Gary is. What a cartoon that guy is. Might as well have Jim Ross announce SEC vs. Big10 games.

Keith did the Olympics and Wide World of Sports.

He was objective. He had his favorites but he wasn't shamelessly biased like Gary.

I don’t disagree. But he seemed to be more of a homer later in his career, and especially when he was doing WC games only.

No questioning his greatness. But that snarky comment about the computer championship was way out of bounds. USC knew the rules. They agreed to it just like everyone else. And Keith knew that.
