We were introduced to Archie the previous year when he was a sophomore but the game was in B.R. He threw a last minute TD pass in the same corner of the south end zone where Bert Jones would throw to Brad Davis four years later. I know because I was sitting right there both times. We got them back in '70.

you are right. I had the years backwards. a little thought would have put me in the right time frame being that everyone knows that the 61-17 game was in BR, so would have been the 1968 game. I was there too same seats where I sit now in fact. I just knew in 1969 archie was a junior. 1968 would have been the year that archie tossed that td pass near the end of the game if i'm remembering right.
