Vince Young Named Member of 2018 Rose Bowl Hall of Fame Class

Timothy RappSep 10, 2018

Former Texas Longhorns and NFL quarterback Vince Young was named a member of theย Rose Bowl Hall of Fame's Class of 2018 Monday.ย 

Young famously led Texas to a Rose Bowl 41-38ย victory over USC in 2006, earning a national championship by rushing for a touchdown in the dying moments of the fourth quarter. It remains one of the most memorable games and moments in college football history, and Young's performance was one for the ages.

He was superb in the contest, finishing 30-for-40 through the air for 267 yards while also rushing 19 times for 200 yards and three touchdowns.

Young saved some of his biggest performances for Pasadena.

While the victory over USC was Young's most famous moment at the Rose Bowl, it wasn't his only win in the annual game. A season earlier, he led Texas to a 38-37 victory over Michigan in the Bowl, throwing for 180 yards, a touchdown and an interception while rushing for 192 yards and four touchdowns.

That game also featured a winning drive late in the fourth quarter, as Young led the Longhorns down the field to set up Dusty Magnum's game-winning, 37-yard field goal as time expired.ย 

Not surprisingly, Young earnedย Rose Bowl Player of the Game honors after each of his wins, making him justย one of four playersย to ever earn the award more than once.ย 

Other inductees to be admitted to the Rose Bowl Hall of Fame at the Dec. 31 ceremony, just ahead of theย 105th playing of the game on Jan. 1,ย includeย George Halas, Randall McDaniel and Pop Warner.
