Herbie may have been thinking of 1973...

UM and OSU tied 10-10 and finished with identical 9-0-1 records but the Bucks (Pete Johnson /Archie Griffin) went to the Rose Bowl when MSU voted to send OSU over their in-state rival. Lots of bad blood over the years based on this. But I don't see any indication that the game this year is cancelled. Rivals has it still scheduled. Is this supposition on his part?
