30th Anniversary of LSU / Southern Cal Game (GREAT ARTICLE)

The Picayune has a great article up today on this. See THE TROJAN WAR. I so wish someone would find the TV film of this game and replay it. It is perhaps the most famous game ever played in Tiger Stadium

John Bradley who wrote It Never Rains in Tiger Stadium who was on that team describes this night in vivid detail.

Of course there was the infamous call. A call that so infuriated LSU fans the police had to escort the USC fans out of the stadium after the game. Bradley also descrbes in his book how on his death bed more than 22 years later, LSU Caoch McClendon was lamenting that call against Benjy Thibodeaux.
