Mike tells a great story in his 'Swing Your Sword' book about playing away games at LSU. Said it's the greatest place to play. Tells a story that starts with his team leaving the hotel en route to the stadium. Stadium was only half-mile away. Police escort took their bus on a long joyride through the worst part of Baton Rouge. Nasty looking area. Arriving at the stadium, people of all ages were gathered to greet them, all screaming "f*** you Kentucky". Some hairy, fat guy mooned them as they exited the bus. Rabid fans groped at them as they entered the stadium. Said nothing comes close to the atmosphere at LSU. He loved it. The players loved it. Said it is the the BEST atmosphere ever.
That was 1998. Even better because Kentucky won on a last second field goal set up by a Quentin McCord end-around on the last play from scimmage in a tied game.

It was a great game and a great year for college football that year. He goes into a lot of detail in the book. And the fact that the book is written in his own words and manner make it even better.
