“LSU vs Notre Dame 1971”

Good game, but much less meaningful than the 1970 game where both teams were serious contenders.

Charlie Mac even stated prior to the 71 season that his defense wasn’t going to be as good as it was in 70, and it showed in the opener against Colorado where LSU surrendered 31 points to the underdog Buffaloes. Without Theisman, the 71 ND team had a mediocre offense, so it was no big deal to shut them down. That 71 LSU defense would not have been able to stop Theisman’s 70 offense.
