The craziest of comebacks I mean the cold weather and frozen turf. The fact that Joe Montana left the game with flu like symptoms and came back in to help lead the incredible comeback is legendary. He actually turned the ball over 3 times in the second half and Notre Dame had the ball inside the 15 yard line and came away empty but still somehow found a way to win the game. I remember watching it on TV and couldn't believe it.

The Houston punt team lost this game

The game temp, which stayed in the low 20s, is cold but not THAT cold. The problem was the wind. At the time, and up until around the mid-2000s, the Cotton Bowl was mostly open on the north end (it actually is north/northwest in orientation). It had lower level seating but not upper level at the time. The wind cut through there and was a nightmare. I wasn't at the game but was in DFW on the day and went out for short periods, and you did not want to be out. If you were, you wanted to be moving around. The wind was blistering cold and miserable. I can't imagine sitting out in it for 3 hours. About 2 years prior to this game, I sat in Texas Stadium for a high school game in temps in the mid-to-high 20s with little to no wind and that was bad enough.

And that, my friends, was the last game Joe played in collage. Everything was golden from here on out! For those of you unfamiliar with the FIRST Golden Duo, Joe Montana and Bill Walsh. Back them Bill B. was a special teams coach with the New York Giants. Tom B. was a 3 year old, but would soon have Joe Montana posters on his wall.

At 10:57 of the video, the score is shown as 12-7; at 17:14, it's 17-12, even though the only scoring play that we see between those times is a field goal by the Cougars! Has no one else made this observation?

I've read that Haines admitted to being out of bounds, but I've never heard him say it. And while it looks like he is out of bounds from the camera angle, the ref in front of the play called a TD and the one behind it didn't signal him out, so maybe he actually was in bounds. The reason Houston lost that game is that Yeoman made a mistake by not taking the punt, which would have made ND go 45 yards for a score instead of about 30.
