I was at that game. After all these years it is the best game I have ever seen on TV or in person. In those days the Legion Field fans were split 50/50 bewteen Bama and the barn. The statium was rocking on every play. We would do something good and the barn would answer. Shula, Al Bell and Greg Richardson led us on a fantastic drive with time running out to set up the Tiffin field goal. I remember it like it was yesterday.

Paul Kennedy was a good play by play man. I liked him. He was not well liked at the time by most Bama fans because Ray Perkins had forced legendary Bama announcer John Forney to retire earlier than he wanted to. Kennedy was not the announcer long after Perkins left and Forney came back for a few years before Eli Gold took over.
