I want to win a Rose Bowl so much more than the playoffs. Maybe I’m old. Maybe my growing up in Ohio is showing through. But, BYU has a national championship. Hell, if you want to be technical, so does Utah. And Utah’s is just as valid as BYU’s as both teams were the only undefeated teams at the end of the season. So F**K BYU.The point is, if BYU can win a national title, then anyone can. It just takes getting lucky at the right time.
So few teams have a Rose Bowl win. It’s the grandaddy of them all. Winning the Rose Bowl is the pinnacle of college football. Not everyone can do it. Not everyone ever gets the chance.
But we can and I want it. If we can win, we will win the last one, and we will go down as one of the few teams in college football history to have accomplished this.
We will be a playoff team, especially with how much easier it will be to get there. I want a Rose Bowl win. It’s what I wanted before the season started. It’s still my #1 hope.
