Bear Bryant's Crimson Tide and Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions waged a war that would have done Hannibal and Scipio Africanus proud, but when the Tide's Barry Krauss tackled Penn State's fullback Mike Guman on fourth down, just six inches short of the goal line, Alabama walked away with both the game and the national championship. So near, and yet so far.
