Ya gotta put The Year That Pigs Flew in 'Bama in there somewhere and there's no way that the '66 Cotton Bowl ain't included.
For you youngsters, LSU was 7-3 going into that game with Arky who was ranked #2 and riding a 22 game winning streak with a chance to move into #1 after the top ranked team lost earlier.
LSU was riddled with injuries, lost Nelson Stokely during the game and a gimpy Pat Screen relieved him. Little Joe LaBruzzo behind lg Dave McCormick dominated the Arky right side and gave LSU one of the all-time great upsets of college fb, 14-7.
Was without a doubt Cholly Mac's finest hour!
I'd rank those Cotton Bowl #1, WPF #2, LSU 28 ND 8 #3, LSU 14, OM (#1 at the time) 0 1960 #4 and then the '03 NC.
The NC's and other games mentioned are great but these 5 in the magnitude for their significance on the national scene are unparalleled.
