I was at LSU when Jeff Dale played opposite Liffort Hobley. Hands down the best safety combo we've ever had. Hobley had character issues that aborted his pro career. Dale was productive in the NFL. Boy, they were good. They also had Jimmy Britt at corner. He belongs in any list of second best corner to ever play at LSU.


I was at LSU '82-'85 and I agree. Hobley/Dale were our best safety combo ever. One of the great but unheralded plays in LSU history was Dale's int and return for a TD vs OM in '84 to preserve victory.

Wasn't Eugene the other corner on that team? Always was berated when he was here and unfavorably compared to the other 3...then he had the longest NFL career out of any of them.
