I'm not obsessed about it. Always knew it was a good call.. Many here have asked for that vid. It is many LSU fans who continue to obsess over it everytime, the topic of the 79 game comes up.

I am just trying to put it to rest for you guys.

I think it is obvious that you were right and you don't need to keep quibbling with those who were wrong.

The memory that LSU fans have of the '79 game was that a team with far more talent (two Heisman trophy winners) came into Tiger Stadium and got pushed around and pushed to the edge of needing a last minute come-from-behind win.

You're the one that has created the genie in a bottle that we're stuck on that one play. You're also a bandwagoner so what does it matter what you say anyway?

You still never seem to want to address the false start.

I have a copy of the game with the entire play from the false start to the end. I do not know how to put that play on the internet. If someone can help me I will be glad to debunk this jackass. Do not buy this guy's bull. That play should have been blown dead because of the false start. The false start was a much easier call than the facemask.

That's not addressing it that is just your reason why you don't have it. I have avoided the aggrevation of posting this video, but now since we are raising the ante I will be happy to kick your arse with the whole story of the play.

I did not claim anything on the falst start. There is nothing to debunk.

I just wonder why the false start does not get as much play as the face mask, that is all.

How can I address it? I have not seen it. LSU fans say it happaned. I do not say that it did not, nor that it did.

Thers is no arse to kick, even if you post it and I see than it did occur. It woudl be like you posting the final score of the 5th game of LSU's 1965 season and telling me you kicked my arse. It's fairly straightforward.

It does not matter. The game is been over for 29 years. Get it? All I claim is to debunk the myth and folklore that have been perpetrated amongst many for 29 years.

It did not get the play because most people never got to see the game. Video was rare and cable TV barely existed in Louisiana at the time. People know the call made, but not the non call. If and when I post this video, will you then nut up about what really happened. Will you then admit that the "facemask" call would have been meaningless.

If there was false movement, then certainly.

It's just a friendly argument that has been debated a thousand times. It will be put to rest, along with your fat mouth, when it comes to this play. You are the one that's always running your head pal. I have less then 100 posts here and most of them are in response to you over this play. My video should shut you up forever about this play. Also, I know many others on here would like to see it.

How would it shut me up? Each time someone claims that the facemask call was phantom or Benji just brushed his face like he was painting clouds on a canvas, I can post the link showing that the person does not know what he is talking about and that the "phantom" is one of the biggest myths in LSU football. Each time it is debated, I can end the debate with objective evidence. It is fairly simple.

The play should have never happened. That is all. That is my point. The only argument about the facemask is whether the mask was hit or grabbed. I even said that it probably should have been called provided that the offsides never occurred. The offsides did happen therefore the facemask should not have happened.

I always thought that call, while legitimate, cost us the game; however, it was the correct call. Now, the pass interference no-call at the end of the game......

Thanks for posting those Tangerine! I'm curious, were you at the game? What did you think of Tiger Stadium if you happened to be there that day?


I actually listend to it on a clock radio as a kid at my dad's house in NO LA. Could barely hear the announcer.
