offs gaffe gave the game to USC - andhandedthem a fake partial NC

ND - under the leadership of Joe Montana - comes backe from a 24-6 halftime deficit.

On USCs final drive - Paul MCDonald fumbles, ND recovers but the smucks rule it was a "forward pass"

NOT even close - arm was not going forward - FUMBLE

So SC retaims possesion - kicks a FG as time is running out -get a split NC with a lousy Alabama team

That was Montnas greatest comeback - not the following Cotten Bowl against Houston (chicken soup bowl game)

So still not drafted until the 3rd round - whatever.....................
