I saw on one play when he handed off to wwodley he also made a good block. Team player then and now

They used to run a few trick plays. Reverses on punt and kickoff returns, two QB’s in the game, even a reverse that turned into the option.

He was a bulldozer.
Loved hearing him on Saints broadcasts!

I did hear an announcer say “Emzinger.” Gary was not the first and only.

Had 5 TDs in his first game as a starter. I mean, damn.


I think it was 6 consecutive passes caught for TD's over 2 games.

LSU wore the "metallic" gold helmets until the late 1950's when they went to a more Yellow hue during Coach Dietzel's tenure. It wasn't until the early to mid 1970's under Cholly Mac when they started wearing the brighter yellow helmets that we see them wear today.

It's always funny to see receivers lining up in a 3 point stance

Man...it looks like they were running the same offense as Les Mile's old caveman offense.


I see you read the comments section of the video, also.

Two very good QB's in Woodley and Ensminger. Shame that their LSU careers overlapped.
