"There may have been a few tears shed, but it was a really exciting night," Sean Sr. said when asked about the type of connection he felt to the team on that night. "When they were down 17 points, I was sick to my stomach, but you just knew we were going to pull it out. After being in Louisiana for the last year and a half you get to see what kind of heart and fight kids from down here have. Shea and I would discuss some strategy and we were into that game like Shea was playing in it.

"I wasn't wearing that LSU hat for show. My daughter (Abby) drives to every game she can to watch her brothers. Even my youngest one Nick was really into the game. LSU, Frank Wilson, Cam Cameron and Les Miles could have got anyone they want in that position, but they chose Sean. It was definitely a different type of connection; even more than was expected."
