I had a "bama" encounter today...

[2Stater]

Hey think about this. Chris Jackson and his partner whoever at that time. When they first started putting the score in the box on TV. Here comeeeeeeee the Tigersss. Whoaaaaa Nellieeeeeeeee here comes thew Tide headed by Paul Bear Bryant. This looks like a barn burner tonight. Gosh that brings back memories. For those of you who missed it, I am sad but it was chill bump raising especially with Auburn or Tennessee. The announcer Chris Jackson loved covering Alabama Football! RTR!

Preacher, I know you meant Keith Jackson and you're right, he was the greatest.

I do remember Keith Jackson but not Leroy Jordan.  Did y'all all live through this the first go round?

I always think Verne is like a poor man's Keith Jackson.  "OH, MY"

XBAMA- If you want another laugh, the same uncle-in-law who told me about the Leroy fellow also told me no way Alabama beats LSU in the B-S-C championship.  I was thinking "well no way...LSU is the most BSC fanbase out there."

You can't make this stuff up, can you X? 

[Old Tider]

Hey don't feel old. 

One of my husband's uncles tells me I cannot be an Alabama fan if I don't know who Leroy Jones is or something like that.

He's probably confusing him with the Auburn coach, Shug Jones.

[Coach Hank Crisp]

must have been legion field - looked it up and it was a 0-7 loss.  When he said "down there in Alabama" and talking about how great it was I wasn't thinking Legion Field.  That place is not known for awesome facilities but maybe back in the day it was? 

ND played at Legion field in Oct 1980 and won 7-0 after Bama QB Don Jacobs fumbled ball inside Bama's 5 yard on the second play after Alabama had stopped ND inside 5 yardline for 4 times.

Next game at Legion field was in September 1986. ND's QB Steve Beuerlin sacked by Alabama linebacker ( Bisquit ) Cornelius Bennett, Danile Moore painted the picture named "The Sack"! Should have been a fumble. Beuerlin shoulder was injured and didn't play in rest of game. Bama won like 26-16.

The 1973 Sugar bowl is when they played ranked 1 and 2. Alabama had ND backed up to their own endzone  with only 3 minutes or so and leading the game by 1 point . It was 3rd and long, like 3rd and 18. The ND QB threw from out of his own endzone and a player that hadn't caught a pass all year long for ND caught it and made the first down. Then they ran out the clock.

thanks for the history- I took a picture of his sugar bowl plaque (creeper alert).

Leroy Jordan was before my time, but he is legendary.

I think everybody owes Old Tider a bunch of e-creds on that one.

[BAMAWV]

Leaving a Legion Field game in the late 70s, out of nowhere a ND fan was making a real ass of himself. I forget who we beat that day but it wasn't ND. The post game crush was pressing out a field level portal to the street. As if on cue, a Bama fan throttled the Irish fan. Beat him to his knees. The crowd continued to push, stepping over the badly beaten loud mouth idiot(LOL). My foot hit something beneath,--which turned out to be a brand new Notre Dame hat. RTR
