I don’t know if any of you have caught the AMC series Halt and Catch Fire yet. It’s about the personal computer revolution that took place in the early ’80s. The show is set in Dallas, although, interestingly enough, it’s filmed in Atlanta.
That may explain this touch of historical realism that faithful reader of the blog, Reservoir Dawg, caught and clipped:
Pretty cool, eh? Although I would have awarded bonus points if somebody had mentioned Craig James and hookers.
Would the hookers allegedly be alive?

Nice catch by Reservoir Dog. So just how did a 1 loss Penn State (loss by 21 points to a 4 loss Alabama) get ahead of a team with no losses and a tie with #9 Arkansas?

Just a guess, but they were SWC, and the SWC champ was obligated to the Cotton Bowl.

Correct, Big 8 Champ to Orange, SEC to Sugar…Penn State was a free agent that year….

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, there is no better straight-razor stropping music than “Stuck in the Middle With You” on K- Billy’s Super Sounds of the 70’s
