yah, after that game I remember thinking i wonder what all the hoopla is about this Emmitt Smith guy ~ he isn’t that great. The dawgs hit him so hard that day they separated him from his cock.
Dennis Brown once told me that a few years later, when he was playing for the 49ers, he got off on a snap, infiltrated the Dallas backfield and engulfed Emmett Smith for a three yard loss. As he was on top of Smith, he looked into his facemask and smiled and said "remember this from the Freedom Bowl?"
This game is burned into my memory because I was a Barry Sanders over Emmitt superiority guy as a young kid and I hated the Cowboys and my dad brought up this game a lot. It got me thinking about the best UW performances against legendary players.
He was definitely hurt but UW against McCaffrey in 2016 comes to mind. Santana Moss in 2000 is another one. That punt return strip is such a glorious tone setter.

infiltrated. engulfed.
And people have the nerve to say you are not a technically gifted writer
Creepy apparently is dead so I'll point out that Emmit turned pro after the game and didn't give a fuck
Steve Spurrier took over in 1990. UW did Florida a favor

Funny, that's another shutting down a guy game my dad always talked about.
As a boy I adopted those Spurrier Florida teams until CFB was invented.
