Happened on our own turf. Freaking abomination.
And the 4 PIs on Golden that weren’t called, committed by a mediocre DB who was charged with Armed Robbery a week later. Armed robbery. 18 years old.
Rant over.
For now.
Booth? Hence the PI no-calls AND the reversed Armando Allen TD.
but on the field at ND he was decidedly not fast. Not slow, but by no means did he run away from tacklers.

then it's like he was on a bungee
either. But maybe I've forgotten.
Never seemed to regain the kind of speed he had as a HS Junior.
Regardless, I’m not sure he would’ve ever been the difference maker we expected; as mentioned below, he ran with less power than almost any back I can remember.
Armando had a very nice career. But other than against Hawaii, I never saw the breakaway speed he supposedly had.

Or, at least, I hope he can.
I think the broken-tackle-count from Armando’s career still sadly sits at zero.
