The Michigan Wolverines face the USC Trojans today in the 93rd Rose Bowl @ 5 pm airing on ABC. I finished Art Spandler's article Rose aura wilts while teams' title hopes push up daisies regarding the paltry importance of today's Tournament of Roses. Spandler contends that this game is just settling, instead of being a motion of importance for each school. I couldn't disagree more. (Photo compliments of Parstimes.com)
The Rose Bowl historically faces the Big Ten Champion against the Champion of the Pac-10. USC has been there thirty times-winning 21-times, Michigan has traveled to Pasadena 19 times-Coach Lloyd Carr won his National Title at the Rose Bowl. Despite neither team having the opportunity to play in the National Title game, this is still a huge game. The padgentry, the national spot-light, and the recognition to football posterity makes the Rose Bowl the most important game next to the National Title Game!
