If only we’d known just how bad the times ahead were, we could have appreciated this game even more.
I slept through that game. I was up most of the night before for work and I decided to rest my eyes for a few minutes as the game kicked off. I woke up that evening and saw highlights on Sports Center. D'oh!
A Kendrick Celestine sighting! The laser-like passes of Cody Hawkins. And the electric punt returning skills of...Chase McBride??? Oh for the glory days.
That was a nice birthday gift for me!

That, along with the WVU and KU (when they were highly ranked) wins in Boulder were about the only good memories I had of CU football while I was a student.
One fan's perspective: at the time I had two season tickets on the 42 yard line east side, lower bowl (long story how I got them - dumb luck, really). I brought my 3 year old daughter to the game. She was standing on the bleacher, because she couldn’t see anything otherwise.
On the first play in the clip, when Hugh Charles broke the LOS, everyone stood up as it was obvious it was going to be a big gainer, causing the bleaching to rock. She fell to the cement straight on her right knee. Of course she starts wailing uncontrollably, and after a few minutes, I noticed. Won't stop wailing. Going bananas. Her knee is bleeding a bit, but not bad. I try to get her to settle down. No dice. Leave our seats and try to get a band-aid. Ask concessions, ask police, ask ushers. No one knows where I can get a band-aid. Still wailing uncontrollably.
I finally give up, and head back to the car and listen to the rest of the game on KOA radio driving home while she slept.
Good times!

Some serious birth control right here
If you would've ignored her, she would have stopped crying.

Definitely will be my most favorite lasting college memory for as long as I live...CU also used my clip (with my permission) of Eberhart's kick in their season ticket ads for the following season...
