Michigan State coach Duffy Daugherty was for it. Tennessee athletic director Bob Woodruff was against it. Ohio State's Woody Hayes was for it, then against it and Notre Dame's (and CBS') Ara Parseghian was against it, then for it. Penn State's Joe Paterno, whose Nittany Lions went unbeaten four times without a shot at the title, was forever virulently for it. Steve Spurrier was baffled by it all, saying, "How can we be right and everybody else be wrong?" So many administrators knew it would come one day but felt it was best for everyone (everyone in power, at least) to fend it off for as long as possible.
