This is the fifth-year anniversary of when Vince Young led Texas to a 13-0 record and a stirring win over Southern Cal in the BCS title game. One memory of that season still stands out to the player that protected Young's blind side.
"Everyone just had that 'We will win' type mentality, and I think that's in Vince's DNA," Jonathan Scott said.
Scott was one of the more sought-after players in the Steelers' locker room Wednesday for good reason. The 6-6, 318-pounder, who in the last year has changed teams and coped with the loss of his father, may start at left tackle against the Titans in place of the injured Max Starks.
But his history with Young, who will try to deal the Steelers yet another loss in Tennessee, and the Texas connections in the 1 p.m. game are also why reporters gravitated to Scott's locker.
Five players from the national championship team that scored an NCAA-record 652 points are expected to suit up Sunday at LP Field. Seven University of Texas products could play in the game if Casey Hampton's hamstring cooperates.................
