This series of shots show the last second of the game in which Bert Jones threw a touchdown pass to Brad Davis to tie up the game. The scoreboard images show before and after the touchdown extra point, a diagram of the play, and action shots of the play. Coach Charles McClendon said this after the game: “We always tell our players not to give up even if there’s one second on the board and that’s what it came down to Saturday night.”
