We're baaaaaaaaaaaacckkkkk....

"It's probably the only time in my life I was intimidated by the crowd. A lot of great players have played in that stadium, but I don't know if any team has walked into that stadium and dealt with what we went through. From the time we landed to the time we left, I don't know if a team has ever gone through that. Every one of us left that night saying 'that was a game,' but I still think about it that way. I haven't been in an event like that at any level of football. Out of all the games I've ever played in, I've never been in anything like that, and I am including my Super Bowls in that assessment." - NFL Hall of Famer, Ronnie Lott

wow! Hadn't ever seen that quote. I'm assuming he was talking about the Usc game in '79? That's gotta be the most impressive quote about tiger stadium I've ever seen.

Ronnie should have gone to Bama. Bama pays taxes on that dump.

USC won the game. I was there. It was really loud and intimidating. USC had every reason to crumble, so I left pretty impressed with them when they didn't. It was a really, really good football game. My ears hurt for days afterwards.
