I played football, basketball, and baseball with Jimmy Gilbert in the late 60's in High School. His dad was my coach. Jimmy was right handed. Buddy Lee was ahead of me 2 years, and he was left handed. Jimmy was moved from QB to Safety at LSU and played a lot on defense. He did come in as a halfback and threw a touchdown pass against Auburn to win the game at the end. I was there in the stands.

Are you talking about the '69 LSU-Auburn game?
Because Jimmy Gilbert did throw a halfback pass to Andy Hamilton of about 50 yards for a touchdown, but it was on the first play from scrimmage.
George Bevan and Bill Thomason blocked Auburn's potential tying extra point late in the fourth quarter to preserve a 21-20 LSU victory.
This was my first game as a little Tiger - October 25, 1969.
