1942 Duke Rose Bowl

I believe that's the only time the Rose Bowl was played outside of Pasadena, CA.

Depending on your point of view, they sometimes still are.

That's a super cool find!

Game played on January 2, 1942, after which all the players and coaches joined the military.

Weird to imagine Fordham playing in the Sugar Bowl. And winning it. 2-0.

Seven blocks of granite? That was an earlier Fordham team -- 1936 -- and included Vince Lombardi.
