Sympathies to Matt McPherson. Fitz just announced during the press conference

[Eurocat]

That his dad, legendary coach Buch,, passed away over the weekend.

Fitz talking about how the first NU team to ever win a bowl game is coming in this week.

Time flies!

The rest I cannot transcribe, I'm already 10 mins behind schedule, sorry! Gotta go.

What, the 1949 Rose Bowl win doesn't count???

Of course it counts! (That team, by the way, included 2 guys from Erie Pa.)😁

Are any of the 1949 Rose Bowl members still alive? If my math is right, the youngest could have been born in 1931 - so 91 years old!

My great aunt, who is still alive, went to that game.

At one point, fairly recently, she had been to every NU bowl game. I think the Pinstripe Bowl was the first one she chose not to attend.

Obviously in my haste I mistyped and the discussion was about the first win in decades, not "ever". Sorry, that's what you get for posting and having to hurry up and get somewhere!
