My senior year of high school and I was there, unfortunately with a hellova buzz so can’t recall many details except I dropped my new sunglasses and buggered them up, and it was hot. I remember being pissed about the calls. Wish I was a little more alert and could remember more.

Was there. One of the top 5 games ever played in Tiger Stadium. I thought we had them. What a gut punch. Got a ton of pics of the players as they were announced for TV. Crowd was unbelievable.

That was the first LSU football game I ever attended.

USC was bailed out with a face mask penalty on 4th down late in the game.
They called the flag on Benji Thibodeaux. Before the snap, two offensive linemen jumped. No flag thrown for false start.
