Bo hoisting a Rose Bowl trophy.

I met Bo during the walkthrough at the 1984 Holiday Bowl in San Diego (When BYU won the split National Championship) I was thinking of walking on at Michigan (eventually went to Washington) and was invited out for the game. He certainly was a presence even in that relaxed atmosphere.

Last night I was trying to remember how many games I had seen where he coached. Came up with:

79 Rose Bowl vs USC the phantom fumble by Charles White

81 Rose Bowl vs Washington

83 Seattle vs. Washington

83 Rose Bowl vs UCLA

84 Holiday Bowl vs. BYU

86 Rose Bowl vs Arizona State

I saw Bo coach twice in person. The 1982 & 1984 Ohio State - Michigan games. In 1984 I ran onto the field. Of course it was OK then because they had astroturf and they let people leave the stadium thru the open end of the stadium.
