The 2005 Texas Longhorns blew the doors off of their opponents under Vince Young, the most exciting quarterback in college football. Lighting up the scoreboard throughout the season, it was destiny for Young to face off against the USC Trojans twice: once for the Heisman Trophy, and once for the National Championship. Many call the Longhorns win over USC the greatest Rose Bowl game ever, and it's hard to argue. This game had it all: star-power, excitement, plenty of points, last-minute heroics and a coaching mistake by Pete Carroll every bit as damaging as not giving the ball to Marshawn Lynch in the Super Bowl a few years later.
