It was part of the 1979 NCAA Division I-A football season. It featured the Indiana Hoosiers against the BYU Cougars. Indiana won 38–37. BackgroundIndiana won seven games to complete their first winning season since 1968 while qualifying for a bowl game for the first time since the Rose Bowl team of 1967, while finishing fourth in the Big Ten Conference. Western Athletic Conference champion BYU was a perfect 11-0 going into this game, having risen from #20 to #9 by the fourth game, with a win over #14 Texas A&M beginning a season that saw the most wins in one season in school history up to that point. Game summary
The game, which featured an 11-0 BYU team going against a 7-4 Indiana team coached by future ESPN college football analyst Lee Corso, went back and forth from start to finish. The Cougars held a 37-31 lead late in the fourth quarter when Tim Wilbur took a 62-yard punt back for the go-ahead score. Brent Johnson's 27 yard field goal attempt with seven seconds to go fell wide left and Indiana held on to get their first ever bowl win in school history. Wilbur was named co-MVP, along with Marc Wilson of BYU, who threw 28-of-43 for 380 yards with 2 touchdowns and 3 interceptions while rushing for 40 yards on 9 carries for a touchdown.
