The Cotton Bowl is United States college football game played annually since 1937 in Dallas, Texas. For 40 years the champion of the now-defunct Southwest Conference played as the home team in the Cotton Bowl. When the conference folded in 1996, the bowl lost much of its stature. It now matches teams from the Big Twelve Conference and Southeastern Conference.
Rick Clausen hardly looked like a third-stringer. Buried as a backup for most of the season, Clausen led No. 15 Tennessee to five touchdowns in just 2½ quarters and Volunteers' defense shut down No. 22 Texas A&M for a 38-7 romp in the Cotton Bowl on Saturday. "Probably our best effort of the year," coach Phillip Fulmer called it.
Tennessee posted the most-lopsided win in its 45-game bowl history. The Vols had lost four of their last five bowls, dropping the previous two by a total of 40 points and never leading in either game. Clausen showed the poise and patience of a seasoned leader, not a junior transfer who was beaten out by two freshmen and was playing only because they were both hurt. He finished 18-of-27 for 222 yards with three touchdowns, no interceptions and no sacks.
In addition to proving himself, Clausen improved his family's bowl reputation; brother Casey went 1-3 as Tennessee's starting quarterback its last four bowl games, including a loss in the 2001 Cotton. Rick watched that game from the stands, just like Casey did this time.
