Bo and Da-bo both hired as first time head coaches in 2008. Nine years later Bo lost the FCS Championship and Da-bo won the FBS Championship.

Sounds like the deal where Kennedy was assassinated from a warehouse and Oswald was caught in a theater, while Lincoln was shot in a theater and Booth was caught in a warehouse.

Was a contested game, the frig against Remington, Clemson got help in that game, Nebraska recovered a fumble, refs gave the ball to Clemson. Was clearly a fumble in football world, only two places it wasn't Clemson and game site.

One of the first games I really remember watching as a kid. I just remember thinking "How can the Huskers lose to Clemson? I've never even heard of Clemson." :D

Didn't Rimington get called for being offsides in that game?? Anyone ever seen the center called offsides in a game since then?

That's right... I think Rimington did get called for being off side in that game. Unbelievable.

and the next year they found their way to probation

The violations included giving prospective players automobiles, television sets, clothing, ''substantial'' sums of cash and other gifts, the N.C.A.A. said. In addition, the N.C.A.A. said Clemson had awarded scholarships to friends and relatives of recruits and paid telephone bills of recruits' families.

Believe he did, no warning or mention of this to the player, played center most of his college career and don't believe he changed his stance, even on the next play.
