I'll always see the Notre Dame game, when Erik's name is mentioned. An LSU back fumbled, and a Notre Dame player fell on the ball. The TV Announcers proclaimed "Notre Dame's Ball". Notre Dame was the darling of all the sports media in those days. Instantly, Andelsek rushed up and drove his shoulder into the Notre Dame players back. The ball squirted out and LSU recovered.
He seemed to approach every play the same. The play isn't over until the whistle blows and the official was too slow.

Never forget him and Chris Spielman almost coming to blows during the coin toss of LSU-Ohio State game in Baton Rouge. Ironically, later became Lion teammates and close personal friends.
