The LSU vs Bama was a day game in 1973.


No,it wasn't. It was moved to Thanksgiving Night and Alabama won 21-7.

For the OP and along the lines with others, not sure if it was just for televised games or not, but Tiger Stadium would have one end zone in Purple with gold L S U and the other end zone would have the colors of the opponent. The 1969 Auburn and 1970 Ole Miss games were televised and any footage or picture from that game can see an orange AU and a red UM (or maybe 'O'M). Pretty sure the same was for Notre Dame and Alabama in 1971 as they were on ABC.

'73 was Thanksgiving night... my first ever game in Tiger Stadium. The end zone crowd threw oranges at the Bear.
