They talk about the 1980 team with the win in the bowl game against SMU. They talk about 1984 and 1996. I've never heard anyone make a big deal out of the 1979 team that won all 11 regular season games before losing to Indiana in the Holiday Bowl, 37-38.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2021786907272420084.post-11570276083227525942010-10-14T09:58:52.675-04:002010-10-14T09:58:52.675-04:00First, Anonymous, you have the right answer: 7.

It is probably the most underrated team. I even have a trivia question about that team planned for later in the year. <br><br>Losing the last game of the season hurts 1979 in fans' memories (on a missed field goal no less). However, it was a year that featured an upset of a national power, and set several new school and NCAA records. It was also one of the first, if not the first, time that a BYU game was broadcast nationwide.The Editorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05077396611926905837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2021786907272420084.post-50231518233304430482010-10-14T11:01:03.828-04:002010-10-14T11:01:03.828-04:00You are correct.
