Heisman Trophy winner Pat Sullivan played for AU. His favorite target was the great wide out Terry Beasley. The teams were coached by AU legend Ralph "Shug" Jordan. Alabama featured the great running back, Johnny Musso, guard John Hannah and QB Terry Davis. And of course Paul "Bear" Bryant was its coach... I was there. Bama crushed the Aubs: 31-7. Total dominance! Title: Re: "You think this Alabama vs. Auburn game is biggest ever?

For my then fiancée, a Sicilian from Brooklyn, this was her first Bama game. She still remembers the Italian Stallion. And you guys are right. Bama crushed them. Not remotely close. I hope history repeats.
