I believe this highlight reel was from the VHS collection titled something like “PSU Team of the 80s, a decade of excellence.” Freely admit I may be wrong in my recollection.
I know there was n after the ‘86 championship called “A Century iof Excellence”. I had a great highlights montage at the end with Steven Winwood’s Back in the High Life playing. I haven’t seen that in Youtube, but I’d love to see that again.

Couple thoughts:
1. Joe Hines glad the biggest butt of any player ever
2. Dan Biondi was horrible.
That was a GREAT Team
Also Jon Williams was a badass. Heller says to this day that Jonathan was the biggest athletic freak on the team.

A few more thoughts after watching the entire video

1. My goodness. Blackledge had unbelievable time in the pocket
2. I shed a tear watching. I was a sophomore that year and i attended the Sugar Bowl. The names that were read took me back to my youth. This was probably my all-time favorite PSU team.
3. The Fran Fischer commentary was funny how unemotional he was
4. “Gattuso Interception“ is a set of work I had long forgotten
5. Curt Warner was an excellent back
6. I think it was the SI article on the game that stated “Kevin Baugh - rhymes with “Wow””.
7. Jon Williams was probably better than I remember
8. I think i could watch this one once a week
