DVD Reviews of The 2006 Rose Bowl National Championship
DVD Review: IT WAS A PRIVILEGE JUST TO SEE THIS GAME!
Summary: 5 Stars
For those of us who were eyewitnesses of this game, this DVD is a must. I am a USC alum, but this was still probably the greatest game in college football history. It reminded me of what Pete Rose said after losing game six of the 1975 World Series: "It was a privilege just to play in this game."
Well, being at the Rose Bowl on January 4, 2006 was a privilege, win or lose. I experienced it with my daughter, and it was a treasured memory, never to be forgotten. . . again, even in defeat!
That said, the DVD does what watching the game in person does not: reveal USC's many miscalculations, mistakes, mental errors, decisions gone awry, and agonizingly, barely-by-inches calls and plays that cost them. . . any one of which would have assured victory instead of losing that 12-point lead with five minutes left.
This DVD does definitely bring back the sights, sounds and smells of that perfect, sunny winter day in the Arroyo Seco, the pre-game festivities, hours of hob-nobbing with old and new friends, and of course magical performances by Matt Leinart and Vince Young. This will go down with the 1979 Indiana State-Michigan State Final Four game between Larry Bird and Magic Johnson as a groundbreaking, seminal sports event. Young, Leinart, Reggie Bush and others will battle each other over the next decade for NFL supremacy, and this game will mark the beginning of the rivalry! Pete Carroll always said a team would have to play great to end his winning streak, and indeed I can only think of one other college performance to rival Young's: Joe Montana, bringing Notre Dame back vs. USC in a 1978 loss at the Coliseum. Young was greatness personified, just like Joe.
We will never see another team like USC. They were the greatest team of all time, which is just a way of expresing admiration that the only team that could have beaten them was the 2005 Longhorns with Young at QB.
One last note: It was a bitter loss for USC, but assuaged by the wonderful sportsmanship of the Texas faithful. They were loud and boisterous, but polite, respectful, and knew the traditions of not just Texas but USC, too. It was a pleasure to speak with them, and if we had to lose they were better than some of the foul-mouths who often express jealousy at Trojan greatness. Their women were beautiful, their children respectful, even in celebration. Hook 'em Horns!

Description of The 2006 Rose Bowl National Championship
The greatest championship game in the history of college football january 4, 2006. Before 94,000 fans at the rose bowl in pasadena and half of a nation watching on television, vince young carried the texas longhorns on his back and broke southern californias 34-game winning streak en route to claiming their fourth national championship and first in over 35 years. The hype could not have been bigger surrounding the match up of the top two bcs teams, no. 1 southern california and no. 2 texas. On the field would be the last two heisman trophy winners and the current heisman runner-up, vince young. With 6:42 left to play in the fourth quarter it looked as if the dream season for texas may come to a close but vince young and the longhorns would not go away that easily. Young carried the longhorns down the field and closed the gap to 38-33 with 4:03 remaining, scoring on a 17-yard touchdown run. In an attempt to run out the clock and deny young another chance, southern california moved the ball to the texas 45 and faced fourth-and-two with 2:09 left. Texas coach mack brown was not surprised by southern californias decision to go for it on fourth down. We told our defense, if we stop this fourth-down play, were going to win the national championship. The longhorns got the ball back and gave young one last chance. Facing fourth and five with 19-seconds to play, young sidestepped the usc defenders and glided into the end zone and texas history, winning 41-38. This dvd contains the complete 2006 rose bowl game, presented by citi, with coverage from abc sports, without commercial interruption, presented in fullscreen (1.33:1) digital video. Chapter points on the dvd allow you to jump directly to the action, quarter by quarter. With this dvd, you are in control of every frame of video and every replay of this incredible bcs championship game where the texas longhorns became 2005 national champions.
