Not Wyoming in the last picture. They had a cowboy on the helmet. Number 30 is either Grezaffi or Craig Burns.

I know this picture is not Wyoming. What I was pointing out is that the 1968 Sugar Bowl vs Wyoming is the first game that the LSU jersey had stripes on the end of the sleeve. Therefore, the picture had to be before that as there aren't any stripes or piping on the end of the sleves. The number font on the helmet was used between 1965 and 1971 so the time frame of the picture has to be between 1965 and 1967. Grezaffi was a senior in 1967 and the 1966 Ole Miss game was played in Tiger Stadium which is where this picture was taken. This would have been Grezaffi's junior year. I have LSU football programs for each year dating back to 1957. Based on a review of those programs, it appears this picture is from the 1966 Ole Miss game in Tiger Stadium.
