As the story goes, Mac was bringing the team in to the hotel and some Hog fans said "Hey, look they actually showed up".

Mac said he didn't have to say a thing after that to get the team ready.

Yep. The pig fans spent so much time laughing at the Tiger faithful in Dallas before the game asking why they even came to see their team get beat. Then the win by the Tigers shut up the piggies.

It was one of my Dad's favorite LSU wins and he loved to mention it to pig fans.

Great story, hadnt heard that one before. This was the game that hooked me on LSU football for life--still have memories of watching it with my dad and pop. Mainly remember Labruzzo seven straight runs in a row the last was a TD.
