Thanks Al Coffee



WTF? I was at that game and Al Coffee didn't lose that game. It was a bullshite interference call on Tommy Casanova that set up Notre Dame's winning field goal. We got mugged by the refs. Notre Dame was #1 and LSU #7 going into the game. The Sunday morning Chicago Tribune headlines said "If Notre Dame is #1, LSU is #1a. I can tell stories about that trip for hours.

On the play before the field goal a sure interception bounced off Casanova's chest. One of the few bad plays he made at LSU. With regard to the film, the game was not on TV. I was 12 years old and remember listening to the game on radio with my friend who was Tommy Casanova's cousin. We were heartbroken. We got them back the next year though. There may be a film because all ND games were replayed on Sunday morning with Lindsey Nelson doing the call.
