Jerry Stovall , a former LSU All-American and St. Louis Cardinals defensive back , was named to succeed Rein approximately 36 hours after the crash . The Georgia Bulldogs starred freshman running back Herschel Walker , who made his NCAA debut against Tennessee . Down 15-2 at halftime , Georgia sent in Walker , the third string running back at the time , to try to light a spark . Walker ran over All-American safety Bill Bates , in a play that would set the tempo for the rest of his career . This year was the final season in which long time rivals Rutgers and Princeton played against each other . The rivalry between the New Jersey schools has not been played since . This year 's edition of Florida -- Georgia game was won on a last minute 92 yard pass from Georgia 's own endzone , known by the play by play call `` Run , Lindsay , run ! '' .

So half the conference was ineligible for bowl games and it was feared that the 4th or 5th-place finisher would end up in the Rose Bowl . Ironically , USC and UCLA both got as high as # 2 in the polls before being upset . As it turned out , the probation did n't matter as Washington won the conference outright with a 6-1 record . This year 's edition of the Holiday Bowl was a classic as the BYU staged a fourth quarter comeback , led by future NFL star Jim McMahon . Down 45-25 to SMU with less than four minutes left , McMahon threw three touchdown passes , including a Hail Mary as time expired , caught in the endzone by Clay Brown , despite being surrounded by three SMU defenders . |

127th Battalion (12th York Rangers), CEF | The 127th ( 12th York Rangers ) Battalion , CEF was a unit in the Canadian Expeditionary Force during the First World War . Based in Toronto , Ontario , the unit began recruiting in late 1915 in York County . After sailing to England in August 1916 , the battalion was redesignated the 2nd Battalion , Canadian Railway Troops on November 8 , 1916 . The 127th ( 12th York Rangers ) Battalion , CEF had one Officer Commanding : Lieut-Col . F. F. Clarke , DSO . As railway troops , the Battalion specialized in building light railway lines close to the front ( a Canadian specialty ) for the rapid movement of troops and supplies from established railway heads . The battalion prided itself on its rapid bridge-building skills and an improvised turntable it crafted on several occasions . In April 1918 as the second great German offensive of the year rolled back over the old Somme Battlefield , the 127th was pressed into service as infantry near Amiens . Although initially trained as infantry , the battalion had not been employed as such but the men were apparently eager to show they could fight even if they were only armed with rifles . Combing through the chaos of Amiens , a large number of ` surplus ' Lewis guns were ` acquired ' and the battalion entered the line with considerably more firepower than might have been expected . At any rate , the German advance was being slowed up by exhausted troops and the usual logistical problems created in moving over World War I Battlefields . The attempt to dislodge the 127th was not a determined one and the battalion 's inordinate firepower debarred further attempts . The position they secured remained the Allied frontline until the Amiens Offensive of August 8 , 1918 . Once relieved , the 127th returned to its previous duties . |

1988 Football League Cup Final | The 1988 Football League Cup Final ( also known as the Littlewoods Challenge Cup Final for sponsorship reasons ) was an association football match between Luton Town and Arsenal on 24 April 1988 at Wembley Stadium , London .

Luton were making their first League Cup Final appearance , while the competition holders Arsenal were appearing in their fourth final . Each club needed to get past five rounds to reach the showpiece event at Wembley . Both clubs made comfortable progress ; Luton scored 14 goals and conceded three , Arsenal on the other hand conceded two fewer . Luton for the final were without Darron McDonough who injured himself in training , but David Preece and Ricky Hill both returned to the side after lengthy periods of treatment . Goalkeeper Les Sealey was not fit in time to play , so Andy Dibble deputised in goal for only his sixth appearance of the season . Gus Caesar replaced David O'Leary in Arsenal 's starting eleven , as the Irishman was ruled out for the final having damaged his achilles weeks prior . Arsenal entered the match as favourites , but went behind early when Brian Stein scored . Luton 's disciplined approach , coupled with a strong performance by Dibble , contained Arsenal to few chances throughout the game . The holders equalised and took the lead in quick succession through Martin Hayes and Alan Smith , but failed to seal the win when Nigel Winterburn missed a penalty . A revitalised Luton staged a late comeback ; Caesar 's failed clearance led to Danny Wilson equalising , and in the 90th minute , Brian Stein scored the winner after poor defending from Arsenal . The 1988 final was Luton 's first major cup victory ; their manager Ray Harford later described it as the greatest win in his time at the club . Luton did not qualify for European football the following season , despite winning the League Cup as UEFA chose not to relax its ban on English teams . Arsenal manager George Graham in the meantime strengthened his squad as a result of his team 's poor defensive display . Caesar found his playing time limited in subsequent seasons , as the manager brought in Steve Bould . The 1988 final regarded as one of the best in the competition 's history and most exciting at Wembley , and has been likened to the `` five-minute '' FA Cup Final of 1979 . |

1980s oil glut | The 1980s oil glut was a serious surplus of crude oil caused by falling demand following the 1970s energy crisis . The world price of oil , which had peaked in 1980 at over US$ 35 per barrel ( equivalent to $ per barrel today , when adjusted for inflation ) , fell in 1986 from $ 27 to below $ 10 ( $ to $ today ) . The glut began in the early 1980s as a result of slowed economic activity in industrial countries ( due to the crises of the 1970s , especially in 1973 and 1979 ) and the energy conservation spurred by high fuel prices . The inflation-adjusted real 2004 dollar value of oil fell from an average of $ 78.2 in 1981 to an average of $ 26.8 per barrel in 1986 . In June 1981 , The New York Times stated an `` Oil glut ! ... is here '' and Time Magazine stated : `` the world temporarily floats in a glut of oil , '' though the next week an article in The New York Times warned that the word `` glut '' was misleading , and that in reality , while temporary surpluses had brought down prices somewhat , prices were still well above pre-energy crisis levels . This sentiment was echoed in November 1981 , when the CEO of Exxon Corp also characterized the glut as a temporary surplus , and that the word `` glut '' was an example of `` our American penchant for exaggerated language . '' He wrote that the main cause of the glut was declining consumption . In the United States , Europe and Japan , oil consumption had fallen 13 % from 1979 to 1981 , due to `` in part , in reaction to the very large increases in oil prices by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and other oil exporters , '' continuing a trend begun during the 1973 price increases . After 1980 , reduced demand and increased production produced a glut on the world market . The result was a six-year decline in the price of oil , which culminated by plunging more than half in 1986 alone . |
