We beat Bowling Green to win what at the time was thought to be IMPOSSIBLE--the MAC Championship! Over 20,000 in attendance, tailgating where the Convo now stands, the place was absolutely packed. My brother and I had to sit in the visitor stands because there was no room to sit anywhere else and we destroyed a pretty good BG team to earn a trip to the California Bowl and after the game, fans stormed the field and the goalpost came down. Pretty amazing spectacle for a 20 year old college kid.
I was on the grass behind the scoreboard. We were doing shots every time EMU scored. That was a good day.
Lucky bastards! Wish I could have been there...
For us at or near a half a century, we didn't realize how lucky we were! MAC championships in basically every sport, sweet 16 in 1991! CFL, NFL, and NBA talent during are era/time! It was great to be A HURON!!!!!!!
