I'm pretty sure he calmed down a bit after they lost to Washington in the Orange Bowl. They also got shut out that year at Kansas 16-0. Me and a buddy had shirts made that said: "Kansas made us #1" that we wore to the Holiday Bowl game against Michigan. Most surreal moment of watching BYU sports was us sitting in the Michigan section and counting down the last 10 seconds of what we felt certain would be a National Championship season.

Switser had his chance to play us in that game. They chose the bigger money game and hoped that Michigan would do their dirty work.
