1981 Rose Bowl #5 Michigan vs #16 Washington No Huddle

1981 Rose Bowl #5 Michigan Wolverines vs #16 Washington Huskies

[@charlespapineau5428]

Great memories of my freshman year at Michigan. Really loved listening to Bob Ufer calling the games.

[@settermanfishing]

I think this was Bob’s favorite team “Wangler Dangler” “AC Carter” “Butch Don’t Call Me Harold Wolfaulk”

[@christianlibertarian5488]

The 2023 Michigan team was practically the carbon copy of this 1981 team. Dominating defense, power running game, just good enough passing.

[@nathaniellathy6559]

John Wangler was a good Quarterback and Anthony Carter was a great receiver

[@bold58]

Washington's offense was really moving in the first quarter and some of the second . If not for a couple of mistakes they should have had a 14 to 0 lead before Michigan even scored.

This would be the last time Michigan would win a Rose Bowl until the 1993 Rose bowl.

[@Jon.A.Scholt]

That is actually incorrect. Michigan won the Rose Bowl in '89. Still a long time between wins though.

[@barbarapope1288]

Us dogs were screwed severely by the refs as the Michigan alumni bought this one

[@Jon.A.Scholt]

@35:45 How was this not a TD? And how was Washington's first TD not a fumble? These refs had some serious Pac-10 bias. Or was it still Pac-8 at the time?

[@christophernash1846]

Pac 10 started in 78

[@nathaniellathy6559]

Yes the Big Ten could win a Rose 🌹in 70s and 80s

[@Jon.A.Scholt]

Big Ten did well in the 90s too. Michigan beat Washington and Washington State. Penn State beat Oregon. Wisconsin won a couple Rose Bowls at the end of the decade. Ohio State beat ASU. Big Ten did well in the 90s.

Shit call by the ref on the fumble touchdown by u dub

[@johnevans5434]

Some terrible calls went against Washington in that Rose Bowl!

[@BigBlueBri]

Payback for the Charles White horseshit call.

[@stephaniegormley9982]

@@johnevans5434 No there weren't. Which ones? In the first quarter 5:25 the Husky player fumbled at the goal line and it was called correct. The next one 13:20 I agree the player may NOT have been down, but the only reason the other guy wasn't tackled was because Michigan heard the whistle and gave up on the play.

[@Biggdoom344]

Michigan had to be one of the most boring teams to watch in college FB.

[@allengreene9954]

Three yards and a crowd of dust is how both Michigan and Ohio State used to play.

[@Biggdoom344]

@@allengreene9954 true. But at least Oklahoma and Nebraska made things interesting w the wishbone. But the reason why osu and Michigan would flop in the rose bowl is because the Pac 8/10 schools had passing games. So all they had to do was contain the run.

[@loydkline3760]

Crazy michigan won two rosebowl& big ten football, five bowl game

[@Biggdoom344]

@@loydkline3760 they won a couple but lost many more than they won. USC owned them. Washington beat ‘em.
