The final installment of "RFC Post-Season's Greetings" turns the clock to New Year's Eve, December 31, 1997. That was when the University of Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles did battle with the University of Pittsburgh Panthers at the Liberty Bowl in Memphis, Tennessee. Behind two early touchdown catches from wide receiver and eventual MVP Sherrod Gideon, Southern Miss cruised to a convincing 41-7 win over Pitt to finish its 1997 season at 9-3 overall.
