BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Forty years after making Cream 'n Crimson football magic, Terry Tallen and Tim Clifford are back hoping to help make a little more.

Here they are at Memorial Stadium, a few minutes before Indiana begins demolishing out-gunned Eastern Illinois, reliving the glory of their 1979 Holiday Bowl victory, the program's first-ever postseason title and contemplating what could be next for IU.

"It's great to be here celebrating the 40th Holiday Bowl reunion and having over 100 of our teammates back," Tallen says.

The celebration includes joining with the current Hoosiers during Saturday's pre-game walk from Assembly Hall to Memorial Stadium, fans cheering all the way.
