2. Bernie Moore.

3. Explosive diarrhoea?

4. The entire football team was drafted for service in WWII. Hence, there was no football team fielded in 1944.

5. A safety, a FG, and a blocked XP attempt after LSU's touchdown that was returned for 2 points.

6. Alvin Dark...Holy Cross!

7. Joe Binayao?

8. 1961 Fighting Tigers. That team was LOADED!

9. The inimitable Dana X. Bible.

10. Thrice: 1958, 1961 and 1965.
