Rose Bowl: Do you remember its famous football blooper?
厂补迟耻谤诲补测鈥檚 Rose Bowl game, the 97th in its long history, boasts the only undefeated team, Texas 海角大神, that didn鈥檛 make it into this year鈥檚 Bowl Championship Series title game (Auburn versus Oregon on Jan. 10 in Glendale, Ariz.).
Third-ranked, 12-0 TCU, the Mountain West Conference champ, will make its first-ever appearance in Pasadena against 11-1 Wisconsin of the Big Ten. The Badgers are fourth-ranked in most polls.
TCU's Horned Frogs haven鈥檛 played a more important game since 1939, when as the nation鈥檚 No. 1 team they defeated Carnegie Tech, 15-7, in the Sugar Bowl. This marks Wisconsin鈥檚 seventh trip to the Rose Bowl, but its first since 2000.
In a statistical oddity, TCU and Wisconsin have both averaged 43.3 points per game, fourth best in the country.
Coverage begins at 5:00 p.m. ET on ESPN.
