I was at that game too. I was a junior at LSU and lived on campus that year. That was a great game but during my time at LSU, we had many great games at home and away. Archie playing with a cast on his arm was a great game. LSU and OLE MISS were big rivals back then. I loved the game where we beat Ole Miss with one second left on the clock. Ole Miss claimed that time ran out and LSU added a second to the clock. TBH, most LSU fans thought that time ran out and we lost that game. With that second left on the clock, LSU kicked a field goal and won the game. The state of Miss. was so pissed that they erected signs on the borders of the two states that said you are leaving La. set your watches ahead by one second. Those were good times.

Avondale88,
In the '72 Ole Miss game, with one second left, Bert Jones threw a 10 yard pass in the left flat to Brad Davis, who caught it almost backing up into the left corner of the SEZ. Then Rusty Jackson kicked the extra point to win 17-16.

your memory is short circuiting. no field goal. pass to Davis (Brad?) in the corner of the end zone. I thought the stands were going to collapse.

it was the night I met my future wife also.
