LSU only crossed midfield once I believe but still held Bama to 3 points. That was amazing.

I was going to post this until I saw that you had, and I totally agree. But I will say that those games back then were so different in that offenses never really attacked. It was a very different coaching mindset. They saw every offensive snap as an opportunity to turn the ball over, so they just handed it off two or three times (sometimes they punted on third down they were so damned paranoid), then punted. If the runner broke off a 7 yard run for a first down, then good, we have two or three more chances to run it. And QBs still threw for around 50% and a good TD-INT ratio was anything over 1.

If I remember right, listening to John Ferguson call it on a rainy night in Death Valley.
