Tulane Stadium 1964 Sugar Bowl
1964 New Year's Day, most folks in New Orleans were probably elated to find snow on the ground, a rare event indeed. One person not at all happy was Coach Bear Bryant, whose eighth-ranked Alabama Crimson Tide was set to play Coach John Vaught's sixth-ranked Ole Miss team in the 1964 Sugar Bowl.
Earlier, Coach Bryant had said that the only thing that could mess with the Tide's chances against the Rebels would be if it snowed. Incredibly, there were four inches of snow waiting on Bryant at Tulane Stadium on the day of the game.
Alabama had suspended Joe Namath, too, so things looked pretty good for Ole Miss, who was undefeated in 1963 (with two ties). Still, the Crimson Tide managed to win, edging Ole Miss 12-7 on the strength of four field goals. Ole Miss scored the only touchdown of the game.
Playing in place of Namath at quarterback was Steve Sloan, later to become head coach at Ole Miss.

How could you not include Corby Jones? Even I included him in my pictures.

I saw that, trying not to be Germans/Trayvons. These are guys playing in the NFL today. Corby was awesome, saw him at our spring game a couple of weeks ago.
These are guys that have been stars recently. If we want to go back further, here are a few more shots....
Justin Smith
Brock Olivo
Kellan Winslow
Don Faurot
Roger Wehrli
Dan Devine
Also should include:
Blaine Gabbert
And a couple you'll see this year:
TJ Moe
James Franklin
Marcus Lucas

Great shots of Coach Stallings. I was always amazed he got the Bama job because he SUCKED as a pro coach with the cardinals.
