Page 8 The Battalion Tuesday, November 19,It Notre Dame may have acted early on Sugar Bowl bid O'Brien (AP ) Now that the bowl pair ings are in place, the questions are how they got that way and who will be fined $250,000 for ignoring the official Nov. 17 date for ex tending invitations. When Tennessee staged its comeback to beat Notre Dame a week ago last Saturday, it left the Irish at 7-2, effectively out of the national championship picture. With Penn State next on the schedule and the bid date still a week away, people wondered what Notre Dame might do. “There was no offer to us and no acceptance by us," athletic di rector Dick Rosenthal said. “Sugar Bowl people visited. It is common to say, 'You're still in our pic ture."' Did Notre Dame use its clout on the folks from New Orleans? “No," Rosenthal said. Consider the Sugar Bowl pic ture. Its stature has taken a beat ing the last few years under an avalanche of national champi onship pairings arranged by the rival Orange Bowl, which occu pies the same prime time televi sion space on New Year's Night. After losing to Penn State, the Irish happily accepted an invita tion to New Orleans and a fat $3.55 million payoff. Not bad for No. 17. And No. 7 Tennessee and No. 10 Penn State, the teams that beat Notre Dame the last two weeks, settled for Fiesta Bowl bids and $2 million paydays. Tennessee had no choice. As members of the SEC, the Vols would have had to win the confer ence to earn a spot in the Sugar Bowl. Penn State would seem to have a valid complaint.. The Nittany Li ons are mum on the issue. If the Sugar Bowl had Notre Dame tucked away early was it the only one to bend the Nov. 17 bid date? “We're the only ones who didn't break the rule," said John Junker, executive director of the Fiesta Bowl. “That way, we didn't have to take a team that lost on Saturday." Continued from Page 5 And on offense, both teams have playmakers too. The Aggies showcase quarterback Bucky Richardson and tailback Greg Hill. The Seminoles counter with Casey Weldon and Amp Lee. Coryatt and fullback Doug Carter are great A&M players, but down in the swamp lands, talent is grown like rows of Cotton. The only major difference with the Seminoles and Aggies is expe rience. Besides a young team,; Aggies have waltzed throuf questionable schedule {hisses — minus a stumble in Tii| Florida St., on the other hand traveled to Michigan and LSI At home, Florida State; played host to Syracuse andi mi.
