was 7 years old in 1987 and Florida came to Death Valley. At the time, I only knew a few players. Harvey Williams, Sammy Martin, Wendell Davis, and of course Tommy Hodson. I sure as hell didn’t know Florida’s freshman RB, Emmitt Smith, at the time. Despite a huge game by Emmitt, top ranked LSU beat ranked Fla 13-10. Fla missed a FG to tie in the closing seconds in the south endzone, just where we were seated. Tigers won and the obsession began. Geaux Tigers



Same year, but I was 18. Ohio St 13-13 game. My buddy got tickets from his uncle, Senator David Ginn. I didn’t know Ginn personally, but later had a conversation with him on this site after I figured out he was TupeloTiger. He has since passed away.
