recollection is that there was a lot of dissension, or at least, "unhappiness" on that team. My further recollection was that the team voted not to go to a Bowl, not that ND turned it down because we thought the Gator was beneath our dignity (although I certainly thought so in 1976 when we did go).But, I'm not sure if that's what you were implying, either...
In any event, our situation is pretty sorry now, mostly due to Conference tie-ins, our relative mediocrity and the proliferation of teams with meaningless gaudy records due to the proliferation of powder puff scheduling by everyone in CFB, including us.
