Sun,
You are right, I had forgotten about that tidbit. I guess you were on Hawaii, too, that night. I looked up the game and sure enough it was Nov. 30, 2002....the last of the Franchione era. Bama led 14-0 at the half and ended up winning 21-16.
Enough about that game, though. Hawaii backers are blessed tonight, or shall I say on the right side of the shady calls? But I do have to say that the writing was on the wall at half with the blatant penalty disparity. Somebody obviously wanted Hawaii in the Hawaii Bowl for Timmy Chang's curtain call.
