The game still did nothing to help integrate our team. It was already integrated.
There was not a single black player on the field for Alabama in the 1970 USC-Alabama game. We might have been in the opening stages of integration in '69 and '70 but it wasn't until the mid-70s that we were truly an integrated team.
