that's awesome! I'd love that whole game, to see Tiger Stadium in the 70's, hear the band, even the Rebel band would be awesome

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I watched it on television in my girlfriend's living room with her obnoxious Ole Miss mother doing a slow burn. That brings back a very fond memory.

wow! that was great great great. I was 10 and at my sister's apartment near LSU on W. Roosevelt street watching that game IN COLOR on TV. That was actually a nice place to live in those days....

Notice the LSU uniforms with no names on back, plus the number on the helmet ... names and LSU Tiger logo first appeared in 1972. LSU large letters on helmet didn't come about until 1977.
Notice cool SEC logo at mid-field, and the field was painted ... always was for TV games.
Nice to point that out as well. For so many years the field at Tiger Stadium looked much like it did during that game. I miss that look.

Thanks for this. I was too young but seeing Casanova and Cantrelle on video is pretty cool. Those guys must have been fun to watch.

Archie got his shite pushed in
What were they chanting at 1:37?
Also, LSU rips off a huge run after the Rebels played Dixie

Archie's mom later said that LSU players just brought him down without hitting him hard. I was at the game and thought we hit him every chance we could get.

Wow, what a memory! That was my first LSU game....I was six years old and the beginning of the corruption my parents blessed me with. Thanks for sharing.

It was good seeing that footage and remembering how very much LSU and Ole Miss hated each other back then. That rivalry was as nasty as any other in the nation back then.

was that our buddy vern on the play by play???
Kind of hard to tell. In 1970, there were only two games a weekend on TV. I think ABC had the NCAA TV contract. Their main crew was Keith Jackson, Bud Wilkerson (former OU coach), and Chris Schenkel (sp?).

LSU QB was bigger than number 73 OL
Did you catch the chest bump after TD, that is where it started
Casanova was freaking fast

Bill Flemming called the game for ABC

I was 13, and that was a great era of LSU football. That was the game that Archie wore that big cast on his hand, I believe.
Tiger Stadium was electric back in the day.

I remember Archie getting sacked in the south end zone for a safety and the place went ballistic..it was pretty much ballistic the whole game, but the safety set them off. Would love to see the whole game again. Thanks so much for posting. One of the great nights in Tiger football history.

Wow. Fun memories.
On the last punt return, it looks like OM punted, then the entire team ran to the sideline while Casanova ran it back.
Sure signs of the times-Reb (Black Bear) band playing Dixie
And the player demographic was a bit different back then

seems like Ole Miss football was never the same after this game

Bill Fleming (ABC Sports) is definitely calling the play-by-play. His partner was usually Lee Grosscup, but it doesn't sound like Grosscup on this broadcast.
Chris Schenkel and Bud Wilkinson were the "A Team" announcers at that time.
Keith Jackson? Remember in 1970 he was doing play-by-play on Monday Night football ... he was replaced by Frank Gifford in 1971. From that year on, he worked college football for ABC. However, Schenkel and Wilkinson worked the big games, including the LSU-ND game in 1971 and, from that same year, the game of the century when Nebraska played Oklahoma.
