1946 Rose Bowl

(Their 2020 season Rose Bowl, part until their College Football Playoff semifinal appearance in 2021, was held in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.)

Quarterback Harry Gilmer threw only eleven times in the game for one touchdown and ran for 116 yards on 16 carries.

Gilmer went over from the one, and Lowell Tew hit left guard from the two for points and Norwood Hodges scored up the middle on a one-yard plunge.

Both conferences openly admitted restricting the Rose Bowl, because they were tired of getting beaten by teams playing "hillbilly ball," the same reason they cited for not inviting them before 1920.

This was the last Rose Bowl appearance by an SEC team for 72 years, when Georgia defeated Oklahoma in a national semifinal in early 2018.
