...tempted. Some of the best college match-ups of the decade can be seen in the bowls, especially Southern California vs. Thank-God-No-More-Woody-Hayes Ohio State in the Rose Bowl, and number one Bear-Bryant-Is-Still-Around Alabama against-some as yet unnamed victim in the Sugar Bowl.

When a passer-by surprised him, Mullins retreated to the car with his victim; both were nude. Speeding off, he rammed a car. The woman ran for safety; Mullins, pausing only to pull on his underwear, gave chase. By then the police were on the scene.
