Making their first Rose Bowl appearance in 67 years, the Cougars
pushed national champion and number one-ranked Michigan to
the last play of the game before falling to the
Wolverines 21-16 before 101,219 fans. The game hinged on the
final 29 seconds with the Cougars 93 yards from the endzone
and trailing by five points. Quarterback Ryan Leaf drove his
team to the Michigan 16-yard line, but time expired before
the Cougars could score a winning touchdown.
