Hidden Yardage: The Story of the 1980 College Football Season

Miscellaneous


The 1980 college football season wraps up its second month with Alabama still looking like the team to beat. The top-ranked Tide welcome Southern Miss to Tuscaloosa where Bear Bryant hasn't lost in nearly two decades. In Texas, the number two Longhorns figure to keep their winning streak going against SMU but a freshman quarterback making his first start helps to spark the start of Mustang Mania in the Southwest. Plus, Pittsburgh's Jackie Sherrill takes his Panthers on the road to face his mentor Johnny Majors and the Tennessee Volunteers as Pitt tries to climb back into the national championship hunt.
